Our take
In a post-pandemic era, where virtual connections remain at the centre of professional culture, Warmly aims to make digital interactions more personalized. Warmly’s “AI business card” platform provides insights and contexts on everyone during a video meeting, whether that be their pronouns, hobbies for conversation starters, or how to pronounce their name – meaningful information that creates more human interactions.
Warmly has certainly tapped into the demands of professionals navigating this newly digital climate. A survey reported that 74% of people find themselves researching a person whilst speaking to them over Zoom. What's more, it offers innovative products that cater for various needs. For instance, “virtual uniforms” – matching backgrounds and logos – solve the issue of standardization that impedes a company’s professionalism during a sales pitch.
Warmly continues to raise funding, including from the same venture firm that backed Zoom in its early stages, Maven Ventures, marking its potential in the industry. The primary focuses are to better understand and build the user base, as well as developing new products such as enabling users to exchange business cards inside the app as well as CRM integrations.
