We are inventing an AI Companion for Everyone – a superintelligent entity with personality and emotional intelligence that’s always in your corner. This is a rare opportunity to be a part of a team crafting something that challenges everything we know about software and consumer products.
Who are we? We’re a small, friendly, fast-moving team, supporting one another to do the best work of our lives, always looking to break new ground with an undying dedication to the user. We are proud of what we build, how we build it, and that our products define the AI era while earning the trust of our users. We run lean, obsess about users, prioritize quality and polish, and always root our decisions in research and evidence. We ship regularly, so your work will have real and immediate impact.
Our Core Values:
Quality. We only deliver category-defining products that delight with their ease of use, guaranteed reliability, and beautiful, coherent design. Simplicity. We don’t overcomplicate. Less is more, always. Safety & Security. The highest standards of security, safety and responsibility are non-negotiable across all our business areas. Evaluation. We pay close attention to signals and aren’t afraid to change course when data and our experience tells us to. We are also careful with our metrics, focusing on delivering long-term sustainable value (rather than short-term KPIs). Kindness. Kindness is at the heart of our org and how we conduct ourselves. We care for, and support and respect one another, beginning again and learning every day.
