Rogo is a no-code data analytics platform that lets users do data analysis with simple plain English commands. Our mission is to unleash the power of data and enable everyone to become a data genius. We want to build tools that make data scientists more productive but also let non-technical users keep pace. Rogo will be the first full natural language interface for working with data. It’s a deeply technical problem and we hope the prospect of trying to solve it makes you as excited as it makes us. In the short term, we are partnering with financial services firms. The use cases are particularly compelling here (the pain points particularly acute), and it's where we've had the most traction so far The longer-term vision is to change the way all industries handle their data. Data needs are growing rapidly, and there aren’t enough technical employees to keep up. Existing platforms are not easy enough for users to use. Rogo will change the default for data analysis and visualizations. We are currently a team of 8 and are looking to add at least 4 more in the near term!

StepsAI is one of the world’s leading agentic AI startups, building a unified AI brain for modern businesses. We create a single intelligent system that deeply understands your business—your website, products, systems, data, and internal knowledge—and turns that understanding into action. Instead of forcing customers or employees to navigate pages, tools, or silos, they simply ask. The AI answers, decides, and gets work done. One AI brain. Two powerful roles. For customers (external): StepsAI powers agentic AI across websites, e-commerce stores, and messaging channels. These AI agents answer questions instantly, recommend products, guide decisions, manage carts and orders, and resolve support—24/7. Conversations continue seamlessly across channels like WhatsApp and Instagram, without losing context or intent. For teams (internal): The same AI brain acts as a copilot for employees—helping them find information, understand documents, and complete tasks using the company’s own knowledge and systems. There’s no separate assistant to train. The intelligence that serves customers also empowers teams. Beyond chat, built to act. StepsAI doesn’t stop at conversation. Built-in workflows allow agents to trigger actions, update systems, and execute processes in a controlled, reliable way—whether supporting a customer or assisting an employee. Configure once, deploy everywhere. The result: One AI foundation that serves customers externally, supports teams internally, and drives real work across the entire business.
