By helping their clients tell great stories with the power of artificial intelligence and making content creation and blogging simple, fast and affordable on at the same time.</p><br><p>This inspired me, and hence I invited Adam to my podcast.

And they introduced us to brands, a lot of bookmakers.</em></p><p><em>What we were trying to do then, the start of our journey, was we were trying to influence bookmakers to advertise on our product.</em></p><br><p><em>We learned and realize there was an opportunity much bigger than that. They were more interested in how we got content in our own app, and wanted to do that for themselves to drive digital engagement to their products and services.
