About our team 👋

We are fun and down-to-earth. We are a talented team that works hard to deliver exceptional products that we are proud of. We value curiosity and collaboration. Together, we're developing a platform that takes online user experience to the next level!

The team works on tools and services needed to build bots, help support agents answer chats, give end users a modern chat experience and provide APIs for our customers.

We rely on and contribute to open source languages and frameworks like Python/Django, Typescript/React and graphql to support our product ambitions. We research, build and run state of the art NLP/ML models and services backing our bots to give meaning to an end user query, and help bot builders analyze why the bot answered like it did. We know what our core product is and lean on third party services and hosting providers that can help us build that, without wasting time reinventing the wheel.
