Meet Ayraa. Your personal search engine and knowledge assistant at work. Ayraa connects with Slack and your web browser to instantly capture and organizes everything you do at Work. A search and answer bot for your work chat and browsing history.
Hello Makers!
Today, we are excited to launch Ayraa - Your personal search engine at work!
Ayraa connects with Slack & your web browser to instantly capture & organize everything you do at work. A search & answer bot for your work chat & browsing history.
How does Ayraa work?
1. Add Ayraa's bot to your Slack workspace
2. Add Ayraa's extension to your browser
3. Pick apps & sites you would like to capture
That's it - Ayraa becomes your personal knowledge recorder, capturing everything you say, do, or create at work.
What does Ayraa's search engine cover?
Ayraa has taken an app-agnostic approach to allow capturing knowledge from any app or site the user chooses. As a bot and a browser extension, Ayraa becomes part of your Slack & Web browser instance. This allows Ayraa to be limitless in the apps & sites it can index, organize, and make available for search & answers. Here are the top ones we all love:
1. Slack - including DMs and Private channels
2. Gmail - your inbox
3. Quora, Stack Overflow - top Q&A sites
4. Google Docs, Notion, Confluence - knowledge base / wiki apps
5. JIRA - engineering tickets
and so many more!
Top Use-cases
1. Search your chat & browser history. All your favorite apps & sites. Across everything you touched. E.g. "Show me everything I did and looked into last week related to performance optimizations for the backend."
2. A new paradigm in researching topics - where you can open 5-10 pages in various browser tabs and ask specific questions without reading these pages. E.g., "What's the consensus on running Mistral on your own hardware?"
3. Your personal knowledge discovery engine. Like a tireless executive assistant, Ayraa uses a combination of heuristics, NLP, and automation to find useful insights from across the workspace. E.g., stalled Slack discussions you started, important updates across dozens of channels you missed, new notification alerts from all your apps in a single mission control dashboard, etc.
4. ADHD / Meetings*. If enabled, Google Meet & Zoom calls automatically get transcribed - so you never miss a thing when distracted.

Where are we going next?
1. Implementing rich handlers for the most popular work-related apps to allow granular parsing. E.g., "Reporter" and "Status" fields for JIRA.
2. Building Ayraa for Teams - where the individual knowledge is shared and continuously updated across the teams & even your entire organization. The workspace can decide what should be captured and shared, and everyone creates a collective organizational memory without needing expensive & tedious API integrations to be enabled.
3. Optimizing performance and reducing costs for AI - so everyone can benefit from the service, even in the free plan.
4. Improving the Discovery engine to bring even more advanced intelligence to the virtual knowledge assistant
About the founders
Ayraa's founders previously built Securly - the world's largest AI platform to detect and preempt school shootings, suicides, & bullying. As they scaled this startup from their garage to about 300 employees over a few short years, they felt the #1 issue at work was information overload & knowledge silos. The genesis of Ayraa is this extreme pain point that we all face at work in just keeping up with stuff. The founders also saw powerful parallels in technologies involved from their previous startup, which could be applied at Ayraa in capturing, classifying, and analyzing communications & websites to extract knowledge & intelligence for the greater good.
