Cresta is an innovative customer service platform, which leverages artificial intelligence in order to assist sales and service agents in improving their performance. The platform identifies the best employees, and analyses why they outperform their colleagues, before providing personalized guidance to other members of staff.
This unique approach makes it possible to share best practices rapidly, and both improve and consistently implement customer service across an organisation. The app is fully compatible with mobile platforms, effectively providing an expert at every customer touch point. In addition to this, the machine learning aspect of Cresta enables companies to continually optimize their performance.
Considering that over a trillion dollars is spent by businesses globally on customer service calls every year, Cresta has been afforded a massive opportunity if it can continue to improve this side of business for its clients.

Company values
- Don't accept the customer's status quo. Obsess over inventing on behalf of the customer. 99% of the world's innovations have yet to be discovered.
- Hustle after every ball. Every day, every line of code and each team member collectively builds the bigger picture. Don't settle for stagnation and don't settle for a no - find a way.
- Trust and amplify. We are building a long term team. Implicitly trust the team and show respect to everyone. Deliver direct and candid feedback - it helps everyone grow. Build bridges that invest in others.
- Move with speed, not haste. Speed is critical. Our success depends on our pace of innovation. However, technical debt is real. Build with the long term plan in mind.
- Obsess over the result. Move with determination, intensity and focus on the customer's result. Value the team's ego over individual ego: the best idea and result wins.
- Have a leader's mindset. Leaders set the benchmark for behavior and inspire others to grow. It's never why the company does something - it's our company, let's build it.
