Boss say make number go up. Good Credal bot make number go up very very very very fast

Can't wait to share some epic news with everyone tomorrow!! In the mean time, here are some cool usecases that our customers are currently implementing and or experimenting with in the last couple of months:

1. Financial Crime L1 (assessing financial transaction patterns to draft an v1 Suspicious Activity Report) which a human can review and edit much faster than having to do it from scratch.

2. Regulation review (reviewing draft / proposed regulations/standards and summarizing public letters of comment addressing the challenges businesses are having with those standards)

3. Sales Enablement (Helping sales teams ramp up faster by using a set of existing canonical sales collaterals to help draft new collateral customised to a new prospect, with existing painpoints, as well as proactively identifying where Collateral may have out of date or otherwise undesirable messaging)

4. Product Feedback - collating sales and support transcripts and tickets from a variety of different sources, then telling the AI what to care about in those sources (these types of painpoints, these types of feature requests),  and then being able to ask questions like "which customers are the most worried about pricing for the AI features? Which customers are least satisfied with the newsfeed feature?"

5. Legal Contracts Review - defining a canonical contractual clause library and using that to compare new potential contracts against the existing clause library, and quickly determining potential areas of divergence from standard practice per clause type.

6. AI For Crypto... just kidding, nobody is doing this! 😀

We're on the hunt for incredible talent atm (if that might be you, hit me up!), and that's been returning me to a lot of thinking about our mission, and our culture.

I've always believed, that an early stage startup is, at its core, a story. Unlike most stories, it is not written by any one person, but by the many people who will find themselves shaping who we are and what we do. It’s a story of a small number of people, trying to do an incredibly unlikely thing, in open defiance of the objective probability of success. The arc of the story is the arc of the startup, but the real content of the story is as much the relationships and heroics of the people involved.

I recorded a really fun pod with Brett Stapper the other day, who managed to bring out some of my spicier stories. One of the things we chatted about was the dichotomy between what's prestigious in a given culture, and what's actually good for that culture.

When graduating from the University of Oxford, the most prestigious thing I could do - the thing that would get most social approval from my peers, was join McKinsey or Goldman Sachs. Their noteworthy accomplishments now include helping rural America "eat them [opioids] up like Cheetos", or promoting to Managing Director literal criminals charged with Money Laundering and bribery of foreign governments.[1] Many awesome people work at these places of course, and such crimes are exceptions, not the rule. But in your career, you do have to choose if you want your story to be about prestige at big orgs, or impact.

At Credal, we're obsessed with making our story about applying AI to the problems that matter most to human welfare: climate, healthcare, education, housing, financial services. As a result, the most mission-driven businesses are the ones most drawn to work with us.

Many folks connected to me on Linkedin are in tech, and so may not have heard of orgs like the IFRS Foundation. One of the biggest challenges accountants face today is accounting for a business' climate impact. The IFRS is the global leader -a household name outside of tech- creating these standards, with Credal as the AI partner powering their work to make our world more sustainable. Although not all of our customers are mission driven household they also include global leaders in software that helps the government/enterprises find and crack down on slavery in their supply chain like Altana Technologies, folks making housing more habitable like Latchel, companies making packaging more sustainable like Sourceful, Wise letting immigrants like me move money to their families without extortionate fees, healthcare companies, education companies, industrial robotics businesses like Gecko Robotics, and many more besides. 

If you're interested in being at the forefront of defining the way the most exciting new technology of our time helps solve the most impactful problems across all time, reach out: we're in the first innings of making history.

Our Microsoft 365 integration is LIVE!  As we onboard law firms, consulting firms, and other more traditional companies, these customers differ in what systems hold their most important documents.  What doesn’t differ is their desire to empower themselves with cutting-edge AI tools, and their need to do so with an uncompromising security posture that protects their sensitive data.
