At Narratize, our mission is to accelerate innovation and product development by transforming how organizations communicate complex ideas. We believe that groundbreaking innovations often struggle to gain traction not because of their merit, but because of how they're communicated. 

Our AI-powered platform empowers researchers, engineers, and product teams to articulate their ideas clearly and compellingly, ensuring that no great idea is left untold. By bridging the gap between technical expertise and effective communication, we're helping enterprises bring their boldest innovations to market faster and with greater impact.

A recent feature by Comcast NBCUniversal LIFT Labs highlights how our AI-powered platform is putting that mission into action.

The article sheds light on a crucial challenge we've identified in the corporate world: despite dedicating 30% of their workdays to communicating discoveries, failures, progress, and opportunities, only 37% of corporate researchers, scientists, and engineers report satisfaction with the support and resources available to them. While many turn to AI for assistance, inaccuracies and misinformation, particularly in technical fields, can undermine their efforts. This is where Narratize steps in.

Narratize: Reshaping Expert Communication

Our platform is designed to supercharge the writing, researching, and ideating processes for professionals in complex sectors like aerospace, telecommunications, energy, and consumer packaged goods. We leverage over 30 corporate storytelling algorithms and draw from peer-reviewed databases and authoritative journalism to ensure content accuracy.

As our CEO Katie Trauth Taylor explains in the piece:

"Our goal is to simplify the creation of the most complex types of content professionals are tasked with developing so enterprises can innovate faster. We empower even the most technical subject matter experts to write story-rich, evidence-based content."

The article highlights some impressive results from our clients. An aerospace client reported a staggering 60x return on investment using Narratize, with employees saving an average of nine hours per week on communication tasks. Additionally, 80% of users at this company would recommend Narratize.

Our impact extends beyond the corporate world. At the UN World Food Forum, 240 junior research teams were given access to Narratize to help develop proposals to solve world hunger. Five out of six winning teams used Narratize to prepare their submissions, with 73% of users rating it as more accurate than ChatGPT. They also reported a 12% time-saving compared to manual preparation.

As an all-women founding team consisting of Catherine O'Shea, Kara Uchtman, and Katie Trauth Taylor, we're proud to be bringing much-needed gender diversity to the field. Despite all-women founding teams receiving just 0.3% of all AI fundraising, Narratize secured a $2 million seed round in late 2023.

Looking forward, we aim to expand our customer base and release data showcasing our superior productivity and efficiency benefits compared to other AI tools. Our long-term vision, as Taylor states in the article, is for our platform to "continually provide tools that synchronize writing and thinking, thereby streamlining the creative process for many people."

We're honored by this recognition from Comcast NBCUniversal LIFT Labs and excited about the future of Narratize in helping enterprises communicate ideas more efficiently and effectively.
