Steno

Steno.ai develops "AI Twins" — custom conversational AI models trained on an individual expert's or brand's knowledge, voice and frameworks, intended to function as a digital embodiment of that person rather than a generic document-based chatbot. Twins interact with audiences 24/7 through text and real-time voice, and can be deployed on a client's website, mobile app or other screens via the company's SDK. The underlying technology is described as the Steno Twin Engine.

The product is built through a structured process: an interview phase that defines how the Twin thinks, speaks and responds, followed by training and fine-tuning by Steno, then deployment across the client's channels. The platform dashboard covers knowledge base management, voice, video avatar, deployment, analytics, customization, monetization, user management and settings. Documentation also covers integrations with creator and community platforms including Kajabi, GoHighLevel and Mighty Networks, an SDK with React components and an API reference, and a trust center addressing security practices, data privacy and LLM handling, and legal compliance.
