SaaS startup Witty Works delivers AI-augmented DEI solution at scale
Blog post from Upsun
Witty Works, a SaaS startup, has developed an AI-augmented digital language assistant called Witty that integrates into diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) programs to help organizations foster inclusive workplace cultures by detecting unconscious biases in written communication. The tool offers real-time feedback based on corporate language rules, promoting inclusive language use to drive cultural shifts. To optimize its operations, Witty Works migrated its natural language processing API project to the Upsun PaaS, which offers flexible resource allocation, automated deployments, and robust security features, allowing the company to focus on innovation without the need for a dedicated DevOps team. The transition enabled Witty Works to enhance application performance and scale resources efficiently, leading to significant improvements for its clients, including reduced time for HR and marketing tasks and increased candidate applications. The company continues to expand its capabilities, such as developing language support for French and Spanish and planning new integrations with platforms like Outlook, Teams, and Slack, to reach broader markets and support diverse communities.
