Train your Transparent AI Algorithm

You’ve probably seen other AI companies claim to have created a digital colleague that can completely replace your entire sales department. We both know, this simply can’t be done. All business is people business. And relationship building (& delivering on your promise) is more important than ever to thrive. What we CAN do, however, is give your team superpowers, take over the “monkey work” and augment the collective intelligence of your sales team to help them close deals five times faster!

The AI Buzz: Navigating Through the Noise of Hype

The word "Artificial Intelligence" (AI) is both fascinating and has a lot of ambiguity. Depending on whom you ask, you'll encounter vastly different viewpoints and applications. Some people think AI will completely change industries, make things more efficient, and reveal new discoveries.

The World of Data

14 Oct 2022

The World of Data

Nowadays, loads of data is produced and gathered on a daily basis. It has been said that the number of bytes in the digital universe was 40 times bigger than the number of stars in the observable universe. The pandemic even accelerated this into a huge datadrift, so data is everywhere and in everything! All this data can be useful for different purposes. However, this vast universe of information brings with it some challenges. At AxonJay, We like to see these challenges as opportunities. Hence, we welcome this universe of data chaos and data drift.

The Purpose of AI

The Purpose of AI

In today’s world, living without a purpose is denying your existence. When talking about AI or using AI, most of it is about the AI itself and rarely about its purpose. Why would you use it? Why would you need it? What is its purpose?

When you talk about data, one should know that without data, AI and machine learning is nothing

Birger, you have a fantastic background in the data business. Can you tell us a little bit about your background and how you know the AxonJay team? Sure. I worked more than 25 years for Dun and Bradstreet and Bisnode as an international leader in areas such as data for marketing, data for credit risk evaluation and for supply chain management. Most of the time, for these large corporates, but I also spent ten years building my own startup in Denmark, breaking a monopoly within the consumer credit area.

Houston, we have a problem! Recruitment is in crisis. Who will hire tomorrow (not yesterday)?

Houston, we have a problem! Recruitment is in crisis. Who will hire tomorrow (not yesterday)?

AxonJay uses AI and Machine Learning to predict who is hiring in real-time. These days, when it seems that the world is spinning insanely fast and most of the companies from various industries have a hard time to cope with hiring demands, recruitment agencies are stepping up to save the situation. But are they really? In most cases the client will call the recruitment company and say that they need, for example, 5 sales guys NOW! And the agency will find that for them. What if there was a way for recruitment agencies to get this information before and allow them to target these companies with the right profiles even before the crucial call? Well, this is in fact possible. AxonJay is a Pan-European AI tech company with its HQ in Belgium that uses Self-Machine Learning to help users extract actionable intelligence from the most relevant data and from a company’s behaviour in its ecosystem. What does that mean? It means that they can accurately predict which company will be hiring, when they will hire, and what types of roles and profiles they will be needing based on intelligence, signals, triggers and clues they can extract from the digital ecosystems. Companies, just like individuals, are part of an ecosystem. In essence, they cannot work independently of the market. In a Post-Covid world, with everyone online, decisions cannot be taken using purely historic data or data that the customer already has. There are clues, triggers and signals everywhere.

Post-Covid Company Hiring with A Heart

Post-Covid Company Hiring with A Heart

There is something special going on in the field of recruitment and it simply cannot be ignored. While a lot of companies are struggling to attract IT talent and trying all sorts of innovative approaches and outstanding benefit packages for candidates, one Belgian startup has decided to stop the market madness and take a step back to focus on obvious things that most people take for granted these days. During the selection process they offer their future “tribe members” open, transparent communication and essential human right to feel and to be the most authentic version of themselves – to not only to be seen as an expert but most importantly as a human being. AxonJay is a new AI tech company with one of a kind Self-Machine Learning Platform that monitors companies’ online behavior without the need for large scale data integration, data analyst teams or internal project-management.

Pre-Seed Round Oversubscribed

Pre-Seed Round Oversubscribed

Brussels, Belgium: The new AI tech company, AxonJay, encountered overwhelming interest in its pre-seed investment round and had to turn investors down. AxonJay was seeking a small number of investors to help establish itself and build an initial client base but they quickly became oversubscribed. “We were looking for €350,000 to get ourselves started before initiating our first seeding round,” says founder Jean-Philippe Schepens. “We had to stop at €600,000 and turn away investors.” The investors include several tier-one investment companies as well as individual investors. Some have in fact decided to become a part of AxonJay due to the potential they see. The attraction to AxonJay is the Self-Machine-Learning Platform they have created. The Platform makes AI accessible to companies and organisations and does away with the need for large scale data integration, data analyst teams or internal project-management.
