Company mission
To build AI that has taste, knows user needs, and helps create beautiful easy-to-use products.
Our take
Most apps these days feel pretty uninspiring. As it's gotten easier and cheaper to build software, many products have started to lose the thoughtful design and personality they once had. But of course, there's still a clear need for tools that feel well-made and user-friendly. That's where Banani AI comes in. It's building AI that understands good design and real user needs, with the aim of making it easier for anyone to create digital products that don't feel like everything else.
The team is small but made up of experienced individuals with backgrounds in building products used by millions. Banani's off to an impressive start, with early-stage investors from Canva and WhatsApp. With this experience and its focus on beautiful products, it is setting out to bring individuality back into the process of building software.
