Company mission

To build stronger, more connected local communities, by pioneering the development of AI that increases social connection.

Our take

Neya is an AI assistant helping its users find communities, businesses, and connections that speak to their needs and interests, thus creating a more human-centric approach to AI.

It’s in its early stages, but Neya savvily utilises preexisting platforms like WhatsApp so that its use comes intuitively to customers. Integrating with messaging platforms, Neya aims to act as a local social connector, with potential for a wide variety of use cases. From professional networking to hobbyists searching for local communities, there’s huge potential in Neya.
