“Kustomer brings such an interesting perspective I think on a foundation of core platforms, bringing systems together: omni-channel, CRM, those types of words, and adding on layers of artificial intelligence. I think Dan, I think I had a similar conversation as you had with your CEO when you first told me you jumped. I said, ‘Oh you guys are just a chatbot company?’ You’re like, ‘No, look there’s more to it than that.’ And I think this AI piece really is needed and it’s something that the market really, really wants.” 6:21
