About
We're building a mobile, realtime communication platform that instantaneously connects consumers stuck on a problem with the experts most qualified to assist them. Need help? Simply speak or type a question in plain English. We’ve trained natural language processing algorithms and large classifiers to extract relevant skills from your question, and match you with the right expert on the spot, via audio, video, text, photo sharing, screen sharing and white-boarding. Lots of work ahead: WebRTC for voice and video, image processing, video archival, natural language processing, machine learning, and graph algorithms, all operating at a large scale. We're initially solely focused on mobile platforms (iOS, Android), and are building our backend in Scala, using the Play Framework, Slick, and Akka for concurrency at scale.
