Alfred Wahlforss — Co-Founder
At Harvard, my co-founder Florian and I built an AI avatar app that exploded overnight: Front page of reddit, 20k downloads per day - but $1,000/h in GPU costs on our personal credit cards. In order not to go broke, we had to get users to stay on the platform long enough. And for that we had to talk to them. Problem was: We couldn’t talk to 1,000s of users 1on1. So we built an AI to do it for us. One that listens to every customer and deeply understands what they care about. It worked so well that we thought: What if every company could do this? - Talk to hundreds of customers simultaneously - Listen to & understand their preferences - Turn them into actionable insights This is exactly what Listen Labs does today. Whether you're testing products or exploring new markets, Listen is a skilled researcher that works 24/7, delivering insights in hours instead of weeks. Leading companies like Microsoft, Canva, Chubbies, and others use our insights to make more customer-driven decisions. We’ve also raised $27M from Sequoia to help as many companies as possible understand their customers better, faster. If you’d like to know more, reach out to: alfred@listenlabs.ai
