Amplifying
human brilliance
We think the best way to figure out what to do with AI is to look at what people are best at doing and see what we can build.
About us
Ambitious brands face a pressing need: to stand out in a world where AI is a new force. They are looking for an AI strategic plan and a long-term partner to help them execute against it.
Needs are urgent and time-to-market matters. But what is AI’s highest use? This is everyone’s biggest question in an environment where almost anything is suddenly possible.
We deeply believe that human-centric companies will win biggest in an AI world, and we overridingly use AI to get behind the most human parts of a business and push. The great value of AI lies in augmentation, not automation.
Our customers are not shopping for vendors or preconfigured solutions — they understand that AI represents both an existential risk and an opportunity to their business. They are ready to do both the inner and outer work required to make a true leap forward, and look to us as a trusted strategic guide.
We're not just AI whizzes or data science gurus; our team is also composed of world-class cognitive scientists, experience designers, and data engineers.
Integrating insights from various disciplines allows us to create in ways that redefine the boundaries of technology and user experience. This is the foundation of our studio — a place where AI is a profoundly interdisciplinary practice.
