How Yembo started: 2 AI engineers with a crazy idea

How Yembo started: 2 AI engineers with a crazy idea

Every pioneering innovation starts with a question.  

The question Zach (the guy with the beard) had was, "Why do moving companies have to visit someone's home when almost everyone has a smartphone in their pocket?"  

It's time consuming, inefficient, and expensive to visit someone's home, just to give them an estimate. Zach should know because his wife used to be a moving coordinator.

There had to be a better way.  And of course there was. AI-powered virtual surveys would be faster, better, and more convenient. For the moving company and their customers.  

And so he convinced fellow AI engineer Sid to join him on a bit of an adventure called Yembo. From our start in the moving industry, to bringing our best-in-class AI product to the insurance industry - we're just getting started on our mission.
