Company Description

Company.ai is building a network of category defining AI products in stealth mode.

Examples of what we are creating and actively expanding:

Email.com
How.com
Face.com
Notebook.com
Queen.com

We believe the next decade belongs to vertical AI products that people actually use every day. Each product is standalone, and together they compound through shared identity, shared context, shared distribution, and shared learning loops.
