Chun and Ben joined Y Combinator Summer 2022. During the batch, Monterey AI started with a simple generative documentation tool for the product team.
As we dug deeper, it became clear there was a bigger opportunity. There have been category-defining products like Mixpanel or Amplitude for product analytics. In contrast, mining statistical insights from qualitative users hasn't been widely available until today, thanks to foundational models.
In mid-2023, we launched copilot for product insights. We are building the AI's first product analytics platform for qualitative data, disrupting multi-billions market, and we are excited to have you join us.
