Company Summary
Based in the UK’s technology hub, Cambridge, Wi-Ai Technology Limited is in the business of developing and marketing proprietary software that optimizes corporate business processes, by allowing consumers to understand and improve their own decision making. This is achieved via the identification of biases that lead to poor decisions.
The initial applications are for use in the financial services industry, in which the company’s directors have decades of experience. However, the technology has potential applications in other sectors, including online retailing, marketing, coaching and personal development.
