Why join fonio.ai?

The prize is customer service for every small business phone line in German-speaking Europe, especially the ones that now go to voicemail. fonio.ai, a Vienna AI firm whose phone assistant is built for German-language calls and GDPR-compliant, is aiming straight at it. A $17M seed, larger than three in four peers, drew Sequoia Scout and The Twenty Minute VC, and now 83 roles are open, 27 added in 30 days.

JustBacked's take, based on fonio.ai's own site and its funding and hiring data.
