Ender Ricart, PhD — Co-Founder
I work at the intersection of user-needs, data analytics, business impact, and policy. The value I bring to a team is a holistic understanding of how to take the needs and experience of the customer and transform it into scalable data-driven insights. Throughout my career I have worked to bring cutting edge technologies (from conversational agents like Alexa and support chatbots to GenAI like Gemini) to customers in an intuitive and dynamic way. Always an academic at heart, I seek out and take on new opportunities and challenges to learn and grow, pushing the boundaries of my own knowledge and understanding.
