Meet Evi


Just over a year ago, whilst working at True Knowledge, I made a video for the brand new artificial intelligence product we'd been designing and building throughout 2011. We'd been in stealth mode most of the year (very frustrating when you are creating something so exciting!) and Evi was gearing up to launch in January 2012. My initial job as Head of Knowledge had segued into a more product-oriented role, and after doing some user research in the autumn, the video part of the launch fell to me. Evi was still evolving and time was tight, so both scripting and production were more rushed than I'd've liked. Still, it's stood the test of time, and the video has now had over a quarter of a million views, making it one of the most wide-reaching things I've ever made!

Evi is available on Android and iOS, and conversational search remains one of the most powerful and interesting consumer applications of AI.  Evi understands you, finds the best answer, and learns, so she gets better all the time.  Highly recommended :)
