Careers at Convai
We are excited that you are interested in exploring possible career options with Convai. If creating intelligent NPCs and their applications excite you, we want to talk to you. Here’s a brief on how we believe the world will change in the coming years and how we will build a team of people who are committed to making that happen.
Mission
The kind of Conversational AI we saw in Artificial Intelligence movies or read in science fiction novels is now a reality. Convai is making them available to developers, specifically virtual world developers, who would take our APIs and plugins to power Characters in virtual worlds. These characters are effectively human-like robots in virtual world environments. A future where interacting with AI characters as seamlessly as with any real human is very close and the possibilities that arise with that are fascinating. Convai is committed to enabling this tech to develop games with characters that you can engage in various forms and immerse yourself in that narrative experience, bots that you can have as companions just like a real friend. Not only does Convai enable futuristic sci-fi level games but the potential for learning and training is immense. Traditional education can be transformed with interactive characters that are effectively personal tutors and can teach subjects in a fun and interactive way. Whether it is for K12 learning or for professional training in any industry such as healthcare or manufacturing, Conversational AI characters in virtual worlds can benefit them all. Convai is committed to making this future happen. Does this future excite you?
