Thanks a million to HBAN, Niall Larkin, Liam Cronin and RDI Hub for inviting Emotionise ai to pitch for investment this week. We're raising investment to onboard customers and roll out our #Generative AI communications model EIMEAR. Training AI to be emotionally intelligent has been identified by Forbes as a key data trend of 2025 and we're ahead of that curve. It's described as the 'new gold' and that "understanding customer sentiment and behaviour will become more critical than ever as businesses compete for emotional connections with consumers." https://lnkd.in/e7NTJcE4 We now have 3 years of emotionally intelligent data and the expertise to train AI in the nuances of EI and tone of voice. We'd love to hear from you marie@emotionise.ai
