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.

Most of us have a dozen (or more) finance apps on our phones. None of these apps talk to each other beyond Plaid-verified ACH transfers. Neobanks arent helping. Theyre all competing and trying to solve the same three problems. The next leap forward in fintech is where developers can innovate freely to automate every aspect of consumers finances. We believe this requires building FI connections that are unlike existing data brokers. Imagine the possibilities with connections that offer real-time data and full write access. This is the leap forward in financial innovation weve been waiting for. And the best part? It can be achieved while ensuring consumers data remains private and secure, running 100% on-device.
