The backstory
ai built enterprise-scale conversational AI for customer service before large language models existed, then layered generative AI on top of its existing no-code flow-building architecture. Newer AI-native platforms like Decagon and Sierra were built from the ground up around large language models, letting them stand up sophisticated support agents faster with less legacy complexity, and they have been winning high-profile enterprise deals in the same market.
