After a year in beta, we’re excited to publicly introduce Clara: your partner in doing great work. Clara saves you hours a week by scheduling your meetings, and is already working with hundreds of great teams (Airbnb, Stripe, Pinterest).
Clara is the first truly human interface: an intelligence trained on high-quality data, labeled by the distributed efforts of smart people 24/7. Clara is getting smarter, faster than any system of its kind.
Get back to the things that matter. Add Clara to your team, or email me at maran@claralabs.com with questions.

@marannelson Love the design of the site! I've seen a couple of other AI start ups trying to tackle the problem of scheduling meetings. How are you differentiating yourself from what the others are doing?

@marannelson I have several friends also using Clara, and we love the intuitive design. May I know your vision of Clara?

@andrewlinfoot @marannelson Hi Andrew--
We believe the bar to bringing this experience into the mainstream requires a high level of product quality, and do not see our customers as data farms for poorly-performing algorithms. We are applying the same natural language and machine learning techniques (classical and modern, where applicable) as anyone in the space — we are experts in building scalable systems and machine learning. That said, a key difference here is that our ML is used to both drive automation and surface important information to human contractors, resulting in a better customer experience. Most products only focus on driving automation; their business models (usually cheap to free) require it.
Consequently, this human-in-the-loop involvement also serves as a feedback loop to labeling the success or failure of our algorithms, meaning Clara gets smarter, faster than anyone else could.

@joannejrr @marannelson Hi Joanne--
People - and technology - are always in a transition of some kind. Though we've recently invented a new platform in computing, we still interact with this technology in unintelligent, inhuman ways (spreadsheets, manual information-shuffling). We believe creating truly intelligent, intuitive interfaces to computing is the next step forward.
Scheduling is an incredibly powerful starting point, and was really the beginning of everything for Clara. We care about this pain point personally, and have built incredibly intimate relationships with hundreds of people in helping do this work for them over the past year and a half. We hope that by executing relentlessly well on our vision for Clara, we'll start giving people time back in really huge ways.

@marannelson Thanks for your sharing. We are also trying the best to give people more intuitive interface and more time to focus on the most important things. I'm sure Clara is on the way!
