Bootstrapping an AI product in Barcelona, with Marc Assens (CTO @ Happy Scribe)

Bootstrapping an AI product in Barcelona, with Marc Assens (CTO @ Happy Scribe) - Life on Mars Podcast Episode 54

We talk to Marc Assens, CTO and co-founder of Happy Scribe, an AI product from Barcelona offering real-time translations and transcripts, completely bootstrapped as a business.

With Marc, we discuss both the business part of his company but also there's a lot of tech talk, regarding their choice of programming languages, how Ruby plays with machine learning engines, how they developed their own NLP algorithm, their architecture, and more. On the business side, we discuss hiring, prototyping and bootstrapping this kind of company.

We love this kind of businesses and we want to showcase more of them on our show, so if you're one of them, get in touch with us!
