Melissa, thanks for joining us today at No Prize.
Thank you for having me.
Yeah. Maybe we can start off by talking a little bit about your business and what you're building because I think that you're doing something really interesting in the real world, and you're kind of marrying AI in the real world. So could you tell us more about your company and Netic and, you know, what you're focused on?
Yeah. Netic builds AI to run millions of real world businesses that keep the world running. That means, basically, we work with large enterprises in essential services. We started in essential services.
What be an example of essential service?
Imagine a billion dollar revenue home services companies in HVAC, plumbing, electric, or consumer wellness companies, like, where you can become a member and really go do a lot of sports or different activities, hospitality, automotive, pet services, across the board. So every single thing that you need to run your life or that you want to do are a good example. And a lot of these businesses are actually quite large businesses, and they interact with millions of end users themselves, usually that are consumers or businesses themselves. So Netic exists between the company and its customers. So
So, basically, say a customer calls an HVAC provider. What what happens, or what is NetEQ doing for them?
Yeah. So imagine that you are in the middle of nowhere. It's minus 20 degrees, and your heat stops working. So you first find, right, a provider. And there are many providers. You wanna pick the most trustworthy one and the one that you can get to because you're in a minus 20 degree weather. Maybe you have a kid or an elderly or something is not working. From there, once you find a business, and usually you can find these from aggregators or by search engines or in now LLMs, and you can reach out to the company from any medium you want. If they're using Netic, you can call them or text them or
I see. So this could be like a voice call. A Netic is actually providing the voice. Completely. And then the reasoning around, hey. This person needs some help, and we should deploy somebody out to fix their HVAC system.
