Alan Nichol co-founded Rasa in December 2016. Rasa began life as
an open source NLU for chatbots and has expanded to other
features, including voice interactivity. The company raised $13
million in venture funding in 2019 and came back about twelve
months later with a $26 million funding round in 2020 after
showing strong growth numbers in both open source downloads and
new enterprise clients.
Nichol is CTO at Rasa and before that was co-founder and CTO of a
Techstars-backed productivity startup that had a conversational
angle. He earned a PhD in Engineering from Cambridge with a
machine learning focus. He also has an advanced degree in
chemical physics from the University of Edinburgh. Today, we talk
about the conversational AI stack, chatbots, voice, open source,
and where we are headed with custom assistants.
