Game NPCs are so scripted it's become a meme. What if NPCs talked to you as naturally as your friends?

Imagine characters with memories, emotions, and real-time, dynamic responses - that's what Convai is making a reality. 

Meet Purnendu Mukherjee, founder & CEO of Convai. He went from being a competitive gamer to leading research at NVIDIA. He spent the last decade imagining human-like characters and this vision is now becoming a reality.

Convai's approach? Integrating text-to-speech, emotion awareness, multiple languages, and realistic avatar expressions. These characters don't just speak; they feel, understand, and interact with their environment. From interactive marketing to advanced training simulations, the possibilities are endless.

The results? In less than a year since launch, over 15,000 developers are creating with Convai, bringing over a thousand active projects to life. Big brands and studios are on board, with significant revenue growth on the horizon.

Did you know modern companies use over 100+ SaaS applications? Here's why that's a security nightmare.

With companies managing 100+ SaaS applications, ensuring the right access at the right time is really important. Overpermission and non-offboarded users pose significant risks for companies.

Alex Bovee noticed a gap in digital security, after spending years in identity and access management. He observed businesses were being hacked due to identity security problems.

ConductorOne offers streamlined access reviews, enhancing compliance and security with minimal manual input. They've also introduced Just-In-Time Access to minimize risks by ensuring no unnecessary access.

They have raised over $32M from Felicis and Accel, and notable investors like Jason Chan, Anna Westelius, Mark Hillick, Travis McPeak and more. Leading companies including Loom, Ramp, Coinbase, DigitalOcean, and many more already using ConductorOne.
