OUR MISSION
You're looking for something online. It needs to be the right fit for your requirements.
Before Orama that experience was browsing pages and searching with keywords. With Orama the site or app understands the buyer better, adapts what is presented, and captures insights to feed back into the process. In real time.
Human product specialists avoid rote work and focus on true creativity in product positioning and merchandising.
OUR VISION
Orama is a AI research lab focused on the customer vendor relationship. We're starting with the product discovery ("shopping") portion of the buying cycle.
Our initial product allows visitors to describe what they want and receive help finding it. Front end developers integrate this into the branded web and app experience.
Our customer provides a better product discovery experience to their visitor while receiving richer information about who those visitors are and what they need.
TECHNICAL APPROACH
While we use common cloud infrastructure and foundation models, for our core services Orama largely creates bespoke middleware - from database to prompt chaining - so that we possess a tight iteration loop on performance and quality. We maintain some of the more generalizable libraries as open source which you can access on GitHub.
OUR TEAM
It's all about the people
