Our Story

Knowledge at work disappears faster than it’s created.
After watching brilliant ideas die in inboxes and chat threads at Eightfold.ai, our founders set out to build a better memory for every company. The result is Viven and its Digital Twins — living AI models that carry each employee’s decisions, context and expertise forward so work never stalls when people are busy, asleep or move on.

Why We Started Viven

Why We Started Viven

  1. Knowledge leaks cost enterprises $31.5 B every year.

  2. Global teams work across time zones; context isn’t there when you need it.

  3. Generic copilots treat everyone the same; intelligence should be as unique as the person it serves.

Digital Twins solve these gaps by capturing a person’s real work—emails, docs, meetings—and making it instantly searchable (and eventually actionable) while enforcing strict pair-wise privacy.
