Keeping the transaction inside chat

Brain connects messaging to bank systems, payment services and business software. Its agents collect information and carry out steps such as identity checks, payments and document signing, while teams oversee conversations and workflow execution.

Expanding beyond existing deployments

The company plans to broaden access to its agent-building platform across the Americas. Its next product direction would let developers and businesses build and manage WhatsApp applications from a prompt.
