3 Cool Companies - April [#4]
- Vizcom - https://www.vizcom.ai/
Vizcom reminds me a ton of Figma. It makes sense that Figma's VP of Sales is an investor in the company. They're using AI to change the way industrial design is done, bridging the gap between a sketch and a visual.
Vizcom lets designers create stunning, photorealistic renderings from their sketches. One article mentioned that it usually takes three months to go from sketch of a shoe to mocking up the first digital rendering.
The examples on their site really are incredible. Shoes, cars, hardware, furniture, robots, interior design and more. They raised a $20M series A this year led by Index Ventures.
- Sequel - https://www.withsequel.com/
Sequel is jumping into the world health and wellness offering an AI longevity assistant. It integrates your health data from a wearable, blood labs, DEXA scans, supplements, etc. and offers personalized health insights. With the rise of WHOOP and Garmin devices, this seems like a helpful tool.
It also offers personalized nutrition analysis based on specific diets or fitness goals. I found it helpful to compare different examples in the system, asking it about running training vs. bodybuilding and mobility vs. yoga.
The best part is Sequel is open source and private. Everything is locally stored. There's even a journal where you can document workouts, tips or grocery lists. Next on their roadmap is Integrating with Apple Health and Garmin. Here's a demo of how it works. - Rengage - https://rengage.ai/
Rengage is a no-code, customer engagement platform that integrates existing marketing tools to test / launch new strategies. Akram Hassan and Shujun Liu are ex-Uber engineers who helped build internal tools that the company used to orchestrate customer journeys. They started Rengage to enable businesses to do the same thing.
The system helps businesses build meaningful connections with their audience and optimize their customer experiences. One example on their site is asking the system, 'What percentage of users did not add anything to favorites?'. It pulls that data, then shows you ways you can build around it.
Another thing I found neat was the insights attached to journeys in Rengage. You can analyze user characteristics like Age, Gender, Location, Device Type, Acquisition Channel and even run A / B tests on things like 'User Confidence' level. They came out of stealth last year and raised $3.2M in funding.
