Who we areCo-founded by Mikhail Dubov and Dmitry Isupov in 2015 while at Entrepreneur First, Chattermill was born out of their frustration that it took weeks, sometimes months, for customer research to yield any quality insights. Often, these would be out of date by the time they reached decision-makers. And it was also financially out of reach for most companies. When they started what eventually became Chattermill, they had a hunch that they could use the newly available tech of deep learning to help companies find insights amidst messy data. Their vision was to take what agencies and cutting-edge brands were doing by hand and automate it. Today, our Unified Customer Intelligence platform is used by the world's best-loved customer-centric companies, including Uber, HelloFresh, Wise, and more, all of whom can now see and act on their customer reality.Our Mission & VisionOur mission is to empower teams to see their customers realityOur vision is to analyse over a billion pieces of customer feedback by 2027Our ValuesWe are obsessed with experience – We take our mission to rid the world of bad Customer Experience seriously, and we practice what we preach.We believe in the power of trust – Whether it's with each other, our customers, partners, or other stakeholders, we always communicate with openness and trust.We act as responsible owners – Whether it's about the company, a team, a project, or a task, having the freedom to make decisions in our area of responsibility is a crucial driver for us.We share a passion for growth & progress – On every level, we're motivated by taking on new challenges – even if they seem out of reach.
