Engineering managers can generate work summaries for standups, 1:1s, team meetings, leadership updates, and promotion documents, saving time and aligning effort with business priorities in realtime.

Jozu is an MLOps toolchain that is focused on packaging and deploying AI/ML models more securely, consistently, and quickly. We believe existing MLOps tools which are targeted at data scientists are missing the security, reliability, governance, and compliance features that enterprises need when managing their own AI/ML models. On the other hand, existing CI/CD and DevOps tools aren’t built to handle the nuances and non-deterministic nature of today’s AI models.

Matterbeam is the Data Agility Platform that automates the flow of data through your business. We believe that data should be a canvas for innovation that allows businesses to build real competitive advantages. We believe engineering teams should focus on the work that differentiates you, rather than locks you into data systems that can’t evolve. And we believe systems should be as flexible as your business.

Lorikeet is a platform that complex and regulated businesses use to provide their customers with a universal concierge. Lorikeet does this with AI agents that work across voice, chat and email. The agents are built on a unique architecture that focuses on flexibility and the ability to take actions to solve customers’ problems (not just tell them to self serve) in the most challenging circumstances. Our customers include global FinTech, HealthTechs, crypto marketplaces, and other complex businesses. They chose Lorikeet because scaling customer support while maintaining response quality is exceptionally hard. For companies with complex support needs and a focus on customer experience, continuing to throw people at the problem doesnt work, nor does implementing low-quality "help center summary" chatbots. Lorikeet leverages best-in-class AI and a powerful workflow engine to deliver high-quality and scalable support automation at a fraction of the cost of manual solutions. We can solve tickets that involve looking up data, taking actions in your systems, and making complex decisions.
