We’re always asking ourselves the question of what will be the best use of our dialogue engine - to have the greatest impact. The answer lies in solving human to machine interaction and re-imagining conversational UI for AI - a technological challenge we're passionately committed to. We know the evolution of AI will create new opportunities to interact across all mediums, and through machines and devices yet imagined. We know data will continue to compound, and expand in complexity, and we'll invent new ways of extracting from sources yet realized. So how do we process all of this? How do we attain natural interactions and conversations with machines? These are the problems we're solving, and why we believe Gender's greatest impact will come from achieving neutral intelligence between humans and machines.

There’s an opportunity for developers

to create seamless, convenient, and intelligent conversational experiences, directly into the

messaging and texting environments, where people spend most of their time - and are most comfortable

Brands and developers are gaining access to billions of MAUs via messaging platforms, chat apps,

and sms services.

On demand products and services enabled by mobile create new opportunities

for intelligent automation, and first line interactions for customer service.

Autonomous cars, smart homes, drones, virtual reality, and advanced robotics…

Developers will need to address new challenges for adding natural

interfaces and language to increasingly smart applications

We expect to be able to talk to our homes, to our

cars, drones, and virtual reality games - so developers will need a place to create these

interfaces and natural interactions efficiently, and with production grade reliability

Problem.

It’s painfully difficult to build, deploy, and maintain production ready dialogue engines and conversational user interfaces for apps and web services.

Natural language processing is too difficult and often tootime-consuming for most developers to tackle - so they often

resort to conversational tricks, or short-cuts, which createssub-optimal experiences for users

Furthermore, APIs either don’t exist or are inadequate for solving the challenges conversational UI’s require

As our dialogue engine and developer community grows, we’ll continue to expand our machine learning, and artificial

intelligence solutions - with a goal of becoming the worlds largest developer focused, human-to-machine interaction platform

Solution.A platform for building and deploying production ready conversational AI, with simple, SaaS model APIs and SDKs, for native apps, web, sms, email, VoIP/IVRS and more.

NEUTRALMACHINE HUMANINTELLIGENCE

Vast amounts of data and interactions creates a network effect of compounding intelligence.

We call this Neutral Intelligence.

With Neutral Intelligence, developers are able to build increasingly complex, human to machine

interactions, at production scale, and at a faster pace.

Competitive Advantage:

Created an open source dialogue engine, SuperScript, and a client-facing sales startup, JiffyBots, to prepare us for our launch of Gender.

SuperScriptJS

JiffyBots allowed us to get in front of brands and pitch our dialogue engine and bots. Selling AI direct to brands

enabled us to better understand the market, the objections developers may face, and the tips, tools,

and resources we’ll need to add to Gender.

Highlights include:

Creating SuperScriptJS and open-sourcingto Github allowed us to gain valuable feedback

from like-minded developers, curious marketers,and in some cases, incumbent players in thenatural language processing arena. Rob alsotook the time to write multiple Medium posts.
