My previous startup Foxsy was a chatbot for people to socialize on messaging platforms. Let’s say AOL chats meets messaging apps. Foxsy can introduce other people based on the user’s profile, interests, and the type of conversation they enjoy. It grew from zero to 1 million users. Traction was that Mau was 150,000 and DaU was 15,000. By building a new brand and working with PR and media, our service was able to grow by word of mouth. And we worked with Google, Viber, and FC Barcelona to test our recommendation engine to show them personalized ads. The conversion rate was 1.7%.

As I am involved Growth and develop ChatBot with my team, I though there is a huge space to growth ChatBot experience more, because we can access few and limited information about ChatBot, especially User Interface and technical perspective. If we can share it, everyone will be able to increase efficiency about the ChatBot development. Thus, we started to have the interview with ChatBot Folks, which I would call Bot-Chatter. As I am from Tokyo, I would use this unique market preposition to become cross-bridged the ChatBot writer. Thus, mainly we publish the article based on the U.S ChatBot companies to Japanese Tech Media follower. Moreover, we share some tips about how PM and Developer work on the ChatBot in terms of Project Management and Technical perspective too. As we are from Xpresso, we explain you about pressed information in the express- way. For instance, during taking espresso, you can read our article. But, the espresso should be the double not the single please. If you have the question, please contact here.jin@tastexpresso.com

Founder and CEO :As a travel lover and serial entrepreneur, this business idea comes from my own experience.When I traveled with my best friend, Giovanni Salzoro, he brought me to unique and very local places in Amalfi, Italy. As a result of being exposed to a new culture, I noticed life is very beautiful. Italian people like to call this lifestyle theory "La Dolce Vita".Therefore, I decided to share this experience with more people. Then, when I was in UC Berkeley, I worked for a start-up in San Francisco, which provides a touristic marketplace to tourists and tour guides. However, what I wanted to provide was blocked by the language barrier and local system not provided by own country's UI in terms of User Experience.Therefore, my friends and I started to think about what could be a core factor to digest information and to make people taken actions. And then, as we researched, talked with UC Berkeley Psychology Professor, and did survey, we got the answer as user's feelings and desire as a human factor. Here's what we are doing now. The app, called AsKompass is "Revolution of an on-time search engine driven by user’s future feeling in a specific location". For example, how do you wanna feel and what do you wanna feel there. Based on users feelings, they can get activity suggestions to be able to find the most appropriate activities for them.

We grew the occupation rate from 10% to 90% and made the business profitable. What we did was to build a very unique global startup brand and identify clear North Star Metrics among the team. Since day 1, we had user interviews to determine the value proposition for us to increase brand awareness and existing users’ engagement to increase Word of Mouth and Referrals. Planned a marketing strategy and established marketing channels for both online and offline and event partnerships. The main KPI was to increase people who visit the co-working space. Otherwise, people would not be able to experience the space. The cheapest and most effective way to do this was to organize events. That brought more people to space, and people started to invite other people because they liked it. And we designed the experience when they opened the door and trained them how to show the space with a great operation team.
