Sramana Mitra: Let’s take each of those use cases. It sounds like you have one bucket that is content providers. Udacity is a content business largely. The job of your platform is to enhance engagement around their content. That’s a content engagement problem.

Sramana Mitra: You’re doing a speech-to-text translation and then doing a natural language processing on it, and then tying that to the learning algorithm. Is that the architecture?

Sramana Mitra: Is the popup customized to different clusters of behavior?

Debjani Deb: Typically, it’s not a popup. The way it renders is that the website itself changes. You wouldn’t even know that it changed. We try very hard to keep away from any kind of hard intervention. The site is changing based on what you are doing.
