CLEVVA is a technology business that has specialised in the art and science of Intelligence Augmentation. It was founded in 2011, based on a shared vision to develop a technology platform that could enable any company to effectively capture and scale their sales, support, system, process and technical expertise. Consider it Artificial Intelligence for People. The reason we spend our days and nights doing this is because we realise that unless we help people become assets and not liabilities within organisations, artificial intelligence will soon make staff redundant. This is because many required decisions and actions are effectively driven by a known organisational formula, and technology is better than people with repeating known formula. So rather than focus our efforts building technology that seeks to replace people, we have chosen to focus our efforts on technology that can make people more powerful. To do this, we aim to offer people effective, responsive, intelligent decision making ‘GPSs’ that relieve them of the stress of knowing what to do or say next, based on a required formula. Your VAs will ensure they get that right, every time. This will allow them to focus their efforts on innovating new products and services, and offering customers wow experiences. Areas where robots struggle to compete. We hope that our technology really helps your business grow, and ensures that you feel more confident to hire more people without worrying about them screwing things up. Instead you can look at channeling their human brilliance into areas of your business that truly differentiate. ... Read more

Solving South Africa's toughest problems by revolutionising business and education Isazi Consulting was created after a conversation about a newspaper article in 2012 with the title 'South Africa scores the lowest in Mathematics'. We asked ourselves how this could be possible when all of us sitting at the table had advanced Mathematics degrees and applied it to solve problems daily. The discussion turned to other bottlenecks in South Africa's economy, and we decided there and then that we would create a company with a single unifying vision: to solve South Africa's toughest problems. Three years later, Isazi Consulting is on its way to being Africa's Machine Learning hub. We employ the brightest minds on the continent and compete globally with analytics giants to add value to our customers. We operate in a high-throughput, creative environment, where new ideas are grown into successful projects and research is a key driver of progress. We are strongly connected to a network of universities and individuals around the world, and are well positioned to implement cutting edge research - that would normally take years to reach the business world - directly in our products. ...
