About Us

Basement develops innovative social-signal processing technology to support a new generation of socially-aware AI solutions that will fuel the business-world of tomorrow

Emotions, dispositions, perspectives, attitudes, perceptions of social status, power struggles, interpersonal conflicts and “small politics” play a tremendous role, not only in our everyday lives, but also in the business world, influencing our language, communication, decisions and accomplishments.

Social Signal Processing Technology is a brand new field spanning deep learning, natural-language-processing, linguistics, social science, cognitive science and psychology. At Basement, we design and build the technology that makes the analysis of digitally delivered social signals possible.
