Our philosophy
ConvCAO group members share the same principle: “Success is a stochastic combination of luck, hard work, skill and concentrated power of willâ€.
Our work
ConvCAO tools were born from every day’s real-life needs. Interoperability, functionality and usability are the main axes that our tools have been built upon, always preserving human preferences.
Our vision
Our aim is to implement handy and modular tools accordingly tailored to tackle common real-life problems. Our motivation springs from a balanced combination of human curiosity and application adversity.
Our dreams
We envision a world moving one step closer to a fully automated human environment with adaptively optimized processes.
