Category Standard

Sybill is a verified, high-growth Series A startup ($14.5M funding, $1M+ ARR) providing significant utility in sales automation and behavioral AI. While the project itself is technologically advanced and timely, the submission provided was of exceptionally low quality, containing false claims ('most people have used my product') and missing data. The score is buoyed by external verification of the company's strong market position but heavily penalized on response quality and evidence reliability.

Description
We are building the future of enterprise video communication. Sybill is an AI co-pilot to the speaker on a video call. The Sybill engine joins your call with you, and provides real-time insights into your fellow participants’ mood, instinctive reactions, and unaddressed concerns in context of the call. Video meetings can be as opaque as they are convenient, especially while sharing a screen or hosting a multitude of participants. In such a scenario, you can use live data generated from analysing expressions, body language, tone and content to drive better outcomes in your meetings.\n\n
