Our founders Spence and John met at Google working on Google Translate. As researchers at Stanford and Berkeley they both worked on language technology to make information accessible to everyone. While together at Google they were amazed to learn that Google Translate wasnt used for enterprise products and services inside the quality just wasnt there. So they set out to build something better. LILT was born.
