Our Vision
Calling a business shouldn’t feel like a robot-hostage situation, where you’re forced to listen to horrible music and can't reach a human, while enduring a soulless voice uttering "I'm sorry I didn't quite get that" on repeat for eternity. (shudder) That’s why we started Slang AI We use the latest AI and audio wizardry to make transacting via voice so enjoyable it’s more human than human. By 2030, we will save businesses and consumers 1 billion minutes of precious time while transforming voice channels into the preferred mode of communication (it's faster and easier than text).
Our Values
- Overachiever Fever. We’re overachievers (we don’t know any other way)
- AI Native. We don't just sell AI. We are Al.
- Humility Ability. We approach each other with curiosity and openness (know-it-alls not welcome!)
- Be A Good Host. We build for hospitality. We should embody it.
