About us

Intelligent human decision-making: From Luxembourg to Europe. We strive for better decision-making based on artificial intelligence.

Zortify is Luxembourg-based NLP company at the forefront of usable and explainable AI, and human experience.

Our Zortify products are based on the latest applied research and practical expertise in Data & Computer Science, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Data Visualization, Psychology, and People Analytics to push decision-making to the next level.

Zortify’s NLP solutions, which rely on domain-specific approaches and ease of implementation, have made active listening scalable for organizations across Europe. The technology allows individuals to express themselves and be understood in their own words, from personnel selection and customer/employee feedback, to the analysis of whole organizations and their culture.

Diversity

Diversity is no longer a nice-to-have; it is essential for a flourishing corporate culture. We walk the talk in our team, and enable our clients to do the same by using our solutions. Artificial Intelligence can help companies recruit, retain and train a diverse workforce. This involves the use of non-biased algorithms that aim for equal opportunities and disregard aspects such as gender, age and origin.

Ethics

We want people to trust technology. Openness towards innovation, technology solutions, and transformation is required in our fast changing environment. But new technologies have to be evaluated and implemented in a responsible way, because responsible development and application of Artificial Intelligence is the key for a more sustainable future.

21.09.2023 Bits & Pretzels here we come Did you know that 70-90% of startups fail, mainly because the founders’ personalities don’t match, role allocation is unclear, leadership is poor, and HR management is shaky? Surely you have heard, read or experienced this before? To minimise this risk, startups should invest in their employees first, starting with an efficient recruitement process.
