Our take

Chatbots are more than conversation agents; they have become a tool to ensure outstanding customer support. Proto has quickly positioned itself as the leader for inclusive chatbots and multilingual contact center automation and, with the reality that 62% of customers have switched to a competitor following bad support experience from a company, we can only expect demand for its services to grow.

Staggeringly poor support for consumers in their native languages has led to billions of people being cut from critical digital services. Proto’s dominance in the industry is a result of its existence within the global market, offering AI tools for companies providing support in consumer's mother tongue. Its technology is deployed in over 15 countries, including those in the emerging markets of Africa and Asia, and has served thousands of businesses, expanding its client base to include governments and enterprises in the finance and healthcare sectors.

Proto focus has focused its funding on both product development and global expansion. The company intends to open source its Hermes AI machine learning models via API, as well as grow its workforce in new regions.
