Whatfixs AI journey has been an exciting one - This story is deeply tied to the story of how technology itself has evolved.

It began with the software era when enterprise applications first digitized core processes across industries a $650B opportunity. Then came the cloud and mobile era a $2.7T wave of transformation that moved businesses from on-prem to SaaS and unlocked anytime anywhere access. It was in this phase that Whatfix was born helping enterprises accelerate digital adoption by making software easier to use easier to learn and easier to extract value from.

Now we stand at the dawn of the AI era. Unlike past waves this is not just another technology shift it is foundational. AI is changing how work gets done how decisions are made and what skills are needed. The opportunity has expanded to more than $15 trillion but its not just a software story anymore its a labor story. Roles workflows and human-machine interactions are being rewritten in real time. And while AI promises speed and automation it also introduces fragmentation complexity and a new kind of user friction.

This is where Whatfix plays a pivotal role. For over a decade our DNA has been about empowering people to succeed with technology not replacing them but enabling them to thrive within it. We call this philosophy Userization: the belief that technology must adapt to the user not the other way around. At the heart of this is ScreenSense our proprietary AI engine which continuously interprets both the context of what users are doing and the intent behind their actions. By combining these signals Whatfix delivers real-time guidance nudges knowledge and automation directly in the flow of work.

This intelligence powers our entire product suite. Digital Adoption helps users get productive faster. Product Analytics uncovers friction and closes adoption gaps. Mirror allows employees to train in safe simulated environments. On top of these our embedded AI Agents supercharge creation insights and user guidance.

Our upcoming AI-first products are already creating a buzz in the market. Seek is an AI-native assistant that powers multiple enterprise use cases. Alongside Salesforce automation with Seek for Salesforce Agent Seek also includes a conversational AI search tool that helps users find information faster in the flow of work. Together these products reflect Whatfixs commitment to building enterprise-ready AI teammates that maximize productivity and ROI. It gives users a unified intelligent way to find answers across systems apps and knowledge silos and helps anyone looking to deliver fast and contextual answers.

Our Mirror 2.0 helps teams practice real-world conversations using dynamic AI-powered personas whether its sales support or compliance training. It is the worlds only System plus Role simulation with complete assessment to lead Gen AI simulation category.

The innovation that has gone into building these products has gained us 10 patents granted by the US patent office and we are already on our way to get a grant of 20 more patents with 2 specifically for the AI work we have done.

What sets Whatfix apart is our ability to combine breadth and depth. Unlike point solutions that either stay confined to one ecosystem or solve only for onboarding Whatfix works across web mobile desktop OS and AI-driven apps and supports the entire transformation lifecycle from planning to training to continuous improvement.

The velocity of transformation has collapsed. What once took years now happens in quarters. Enterprises cant afford to rely on outdated change management models and multi-year roadmaps. They need to adapt at the pace of AI. And that is the story of Whatfix: bridging the gap between exponential technological change and human enablement ensuring that AI becomes not just embedded but usable trusted and outcome-driven for every employee across every system in every workflow.
