Founding Product Engineer - Listen Labs
Listen Labs
Everyone hates surveys. Theyre tedious to fill out and give shallow data. Thats because theyre only a proxy for the real thing: conversations. Through a conversation, you can ask follow-up questions and get deep insights in a way thats fun for the interviewee. Except you cant have 1:1 conversations with everyone
Listen Labs has built an AI interviewer that can ask follow-up questions, like a conversation, but at the scale and ease of use of a survey.
Technical Challenges
Turn qualitative data into quantitative insights
Listen Labs clusters free-form conversation into a structured format. This is not a trivial task. We use embeddings, fine-tuned large language models, and more to solve these problems.
Ask the right questions
Having a great conversation is not trivial. Were fine-tuning and prompting in novel ways to get the right output from LLMs.
Multi-modality
Weve built the fastest speech-to-speech pipeline but theres a number of challenges we need to address to make it better. Our interviewer has audio input and output to the LLM and thats tricky to get right.
Investors
Theres been $30B+ of market cap created from bringing surveys online. Our partner at Sequoia, Bryan Schreier, was the first investor in Qualtrics the $12B survey company.
