Our take
Brain Technologies, founded back in 2015, is the creator of Natural, an iOS app ready to change the nature of digital information searches. Its “generative computer interface” combines anticipatory AI with natural language processing, facilitating a step-up from simple voiced query tools like Alexa and Siri - with results tailored to your prior activity and preferences.
The development of Natural has generated some excitement among AI-watchers, to the extent that Brain Technologies secured funding years before its first product launch. The product buzz is complemented by a formidable track record for company founder Jerry Yue. Benlai, his previous project, went on to become China’s largest online fresh grocery market.
If Brain Technologies can deliver on its promise to “organize the world’s software and make it natural to use,” this company could prove a real game-changer in the field. With that said, all that observers can do is wait to see what the company does next, and whether it lives up the expectations it has earned.
