2023: What have we done

<div style="font-size:14px;line-height:1;" id="toc"><p style="margin-bottom:0.6vw;margin-left:40px;"><strong>On this page</strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-bottom:0.2vw;margin-left:40px;"><a href="#product-updates"><span style="color:#0E101A;">Product updates</span></a>&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-bottom:0.2vw;margin-left:40px;"><a href="#new-partners"><span style="color:#0E101A;">New partners</span></a>&nbsp;</p><p style="margin-bottom:0.2vw;margin-left:40px;"><a href="#expos"><span style="color:#0E101A;">Conferences, expos, and pitches</span></a>&nbsp;</p><hr><h2 id="product-updates"><strong style="background-color:transparent;">Product updates</strong></h2><h3><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);">The developed admin panel for ruling the whole chat service</strong></h3><p><span style="background-color:transparent;">Everything that partners want to do, they can achieve through the admin panel, from moderation to customisation and localisation. It is helpful because the partner controls the whole system, and everything is based in one place. Also, partners can try different settings on their own side and decide what works better.</span></p><h3><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);">AI bot</strong></h3><p><span style="background-color:transparent;">Everyone will remember 2023 as a year when AI became habitual. We have gotten used to asking about everything, so from the beginning, it was essential for us to use this technology for meaningful conversations that matter. So, we integrated an AI bot to chat. Now, we are continuously developing a bot to make it more thoughtful as a participant in conversations on different topics and a good adviser for users.</span></p><h3><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);">ML model for moderation</strong></h3><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">We’ve created an AI model for moderation that can moderate users’ messages in real-time and keep a healthy and trusted space for any platform and chat, even without actual moderators.</span></p><h3><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);">Improved UX</strong></h3><p><span style="background-color:transparent;">Our big goal is to help grow partners' metrics and boost business, but it's impossible when your end users are unhappy. So, we do everything to improve user experience and make chats developed, convenient, and just nice for use. We are constantly developing the look and feel of chats that make users return there and discuss their favourite things.</span></p><h3><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);">Audio communication tools</strong></h3><p><span style="background-color:transparent;">Audio streaming is an additional feature, but it still should be perfect. So, since this year, we have provided a tool for </span>audio <span style="background-color:transparent;">recording, an opportunity for users to set sound while joining, users can add events to the calendar if it's planned and many other things that make the process of providing and joining the stream better.</span></p><h3><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);">Tech support</strong></h3><p><span style="background-color:transparent;">We continually work on seamlessly transferring users' messages about technical issues to your support team. It helps solve users' problems faster and grow their loyalty. They just think that if they have something wrong, your team will fix it immediately.</span></p><h2 id="new-partners"><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14, 16, 26);">New Partners</strong></h2><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">This year, we've started partnerships with nine companies. Still, it means even more platforms with our integration because there are operators among our partners who provide services for different end products.</span></p><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">Since this year, we have been working with many new locations—we've started to expand our geo to several African and LatAm countries, of course, continuing to work with the European Union and CIS.&nbsp;</span></p><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">We expanded the areas and domains of platforms we integrated to: we started the partnership with the fantasy game app and an invite-only sports betting exchange platform. Of course, we will move further and develop our product for new domains because qualitative communication is significant for different people with various interests.</span></p><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">Of course, we continued to develop our existing partnerships with sports, video and trading platforms and saw significant growth in numbers.&nbsp;</span></p><h2 id="expos"><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14, 16, 26);">Events, conferences, and pitches</strong></h2><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">Networking is a king, just like content, so we were glad to participate in different events this year, such as </span><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://igamingbusiness.com/events/igb-live/"><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">iGB L!VE</span></a><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">, </span><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.mwcbarcelona.com/"><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">MWC</span></a><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);"> in Barcelona, </span><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://show.ibc.org/"><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">IBC</span></a><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);"> in Amsterdam and </span><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://websummit.com/women-in-tech/"><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">Web Summit</span></a><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);"> in Lisbon and Valencia.</span></p><figure class="image" style="margin-bottom:1vw;"><img style="aspect-ratio:1000/562;" src="https://cdn.eu.watchers.io/38d6fdfc-20ca-43d8-ac7d-11f743326a3b.png" alt="Yana Barden at SBC Barcelona" width="1000" height="562"><figcaption>Yana Barden at SBC Barcelona</figcaption></figure><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">Also, it was not just about networking but technological development because some of these events have benefits and give participants new opportunities.&nbsp;</span></p><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">Below are more details about three of the most exciting.</span></p><h3><a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.vestbee.com/aim-high-ai-bootcamp-for-female-founders"><strong style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(0, 0, 0);">AI Bootcamp for Female Founders, powered by AWS Startup Loft Accelerator</strong></a></h3><p><span style="background-color:transparent;color:rgb(14,16,26);">Watchers was among 17 great startups whose co-founders estimate the power of AI and seek solutions and help that artificial intelligence can give.
