Since 2014, we have employed a dedicated team of AI engineers to develop and train some of the first examples of predictive AI and machine learning models in relation to conversion rate optimization and embedded these into our earliest technologies. Our ten-year track record in predictive and conversational AI meant Insider was uniquely positioned to take advantage of the emerging popularity of Generative AI in recent months, disseminating the hype to deliver tangible value for marketers within the Insider platform, removing guesswork and low-leverage tasks to increase productivity and efficiency.” Muharrem Derinkok, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer at Insider, said: “Like Tesla is famously working to be the first automotive brand in the world to develop self-driving cars, Insider aims to become the first marketing technology provider to optimize every element of customer experience creation, from customer segmentation to copy and image content creation, and optimizing and testing, at unparalleled enterprise scale, for end-to-end automation, within the next three years.” Woman-founded. 70% Women-led.

We wanted to prove that it was possible to create a woman-founded, women-led company in AI and deep tech from any part of the world,” said Hande Cilingir. “Companies with women on their boards tend to perform better on the stock market. Societies that educate girls and allow women to participate in decision-making are more successful. Women matter, and representation matters. When you bring diverse perspectives and voices to the table, it leads to more innovation, more inclusivity, more equity, and better outcomes for organizations, shareowners, customers, and society.”
