Overview

As AI continues to change the way businesses operate, it's inspiring to see how Mention Me is integrating AI into various aspects of their work.

Today we have Tim, Co-founder & CEO at Mention Me, to share with us the journey of the Mention Me team adopting AI into their business.

Belle• TypingMind

Thank you for joining us today, Tim. I’m so excited to see how Mention Me is at the AI forefront to help your teams adopt AI in multiple tasks. Before diving into the details, would you mind sharing with us some information about your company?

Tim• Mention Me

Mention Me is a 90-person scale-up and our mission is to help brands to think advocacy first. When a brand puts their customers at the heart of what they do and treats them well, they benefit by getting their customers to come back for more and tell their friends. This is the best way to build a sustainable business. We help our clients to run referral programs to capitalize on and measure that advocacy and use the data that the referral programs generate to identify their best customers, and their micro-influencers and understand the associated value of those customers. This begins a flywheel effect that builds growth in the long run.

We often find that customers are treating their best spenders really well (in their top segment) but overlooking customers who bring more value by spreading the word and bringing their friends along too.

Use Cases for TypingMind

Belle• TypingMind

That’s a really insightful approach, Tim. Focusing on customer advocacy certainly seems like a sustainable way to grow a business - great approach! So, what led you to choose TypingMind as an AI solution for your company? How does it fit into your use of AI?

Tim• Mention Me

We're using TypingMind to wrap our internal use of LLMs and Gen AI. This allows us to control and measure the access to LLMs in a way in which our confidential data isn't stored directly by the LLM. We also use the AI Agents and other features of TypingMind to help our team make better use of Gen AI.

Mention Me's AI chat portal - The company uses TypingMind to control LLM access, protect data, and boost team productivity with AI features.

App Evaluation

Belle• TypingMind

Seems that your entire team is benefiting from the app, which is great! Before adopting it, did you evaluate other solutions?

Tim• Mention Me

Yes, we used ChatGPT directly but found there was no way to understand how our team members were using it and the risk of confidential data being used for training.
