- As our Events Marketing Manager, you will play a direct role in shaping how Modulate shows up in the market as we expand into new enterprise verticals
- You will own the in-person moments where prospects, customers, partners, and analysts experience our technology firsthand, and where critical pipeline is created, influenced, and accelerated

- Measure and scale program impact, building repeatable processes and playbooks while tracking event performance, pipeline influence, opportunity acceleration, and overall ROI
Our take
Anyone who has played a multiplayer online game knows it can be a free-for-all when it comes to toxic, hate-filled, abusive, and ultimately harmful speech. Modulate is attempting to take on in-game toxic speech, and even potentially predatory behavior, with its AI-powered software ToxMod.
Despite the monumental task at hand, where chat moderation risks creating an over-policed online community, Modulate asserts that its AI can distinguish between friendly banter and sinister chat. ToxMod boasts users like PokerStars VR, Rec Room, and Gun Raiders, with the company hinting at undisclosed high-profile customers. A strategic mode towards Metaverse-based game studios aligns well with the booming growth of the Metaverse gaming industry, projected at around 40% annual growth.
In a notable development, Modulate has forged a partnership with Activision Blizzard. As part of this collaboration, Modulate's work with Activision has led to real improvements in Call of Duty (from a huge 50% drop in toxic voice chat exposure to increased player engagement and retention). Byt proving that AI-driven moderation can scale without disrupting gampole, Modulate is really setting a new standard for online safety. And with growing interest from other studios and industries, the company is well set eto expand its impact and help shape a more respectful future for multiplayer gaming.
