Every day for the past half-decade, we’ve been inching closer to this moment.
We started in 2016 as a team of four people—with a big vision and a lot of work to do. Today, we’re a team of over 200 people from around the world, who’ve created an AI chatbot more sophisticated than anyone thought was possible, and who now support many of the most innovative companies on the planet. Between machine learning engineers, customer success managers, and graphic designers, our skills couldn’t be more different.
But all of us joined Moveworks because we share the same belief. We believe that AI can automate our busy work, eliminate our disruptions, and let us focus on what matters. That belief has inspired us to resolve IT issues — like unlocking accounts, finding forms, and editing email groups — in seconds, using conversational AI to give employees exactly what they need. However, despite the massive impact we’ve achieved with customers like DocuSign, Broadcom, and Hearst, we knew we could do even more than tech support.
Ultimately, we wanted to solve every issue, for every employee, across every line of business. We wanted to provide a single solution—powered by AI—that makes help automatic, from IT and HR to Finance and Facilities. One bot for every request.
So we built it. Introducing the Moveworks platform.
The serious challenge of supporting employees
Supporting employees is one of the oldest and hardest challenges in the business world. It describes all the different ways that companies help their employees stay productive — including IT support, HR answers, policy information, and everything else that holds up important work.
At most companies, talented professionals are stuck solving employee support issues by hand. When an employee needs a Zoom license, or can’t remember the updated travel guidelines, she asks a person for assistance. It’s worth noting that employees could, in theory, address many of their own issues with resources that already exist, such as knowledge articles and forms. The problem? These resources are deeply buried within dozens of backend systems.

The status quo of employee support has three major drawbacks:
- It forces employees to wait days before a busy support team fulfills their request, no matter how disruptive the issue.
- It means that highly trained professionals in IT, HR, Finance, and other departments spend the day on routine tasks, rather than rewarding projects.
- It slows down the organization as a whole, which reduces productivity, lowers morale, and threatens to damage relationships with clients.
That's why we built our platform: To be a one-stop shop
That’s why we built the the Moveworks platform: to be a one-stop shop for instant help at work. Instead of filing an IT ticket or emailing the HR team, employees can simply describe any issue to the Moveworks bot, just as they would to a professional. Under the hood, we use breakthroughs in machine learning — more on this point in a minute — to determine and then deliver the right resource to resolve the request. Whether the solution is an FAQ, a form, a software license, a phone number, a report, or an office floor plan, Moveworks understands the issue and takes immediate action.

It took an army of engineers hundreds of thousands of hours to create our new platform. From a machine learning perspective, many of the techniques that power the platform weren’t possible 12 months ago. We had to build something that has never been built before: a conversational AI chatbot that learns each company’s unique lexicon, holds dynamic conversations with users as they switch topics, determines the optimal resolution to each issue, finds personalized answers from within disparate knowledge bases, and surfaces hard-to-find resources from across the enterprise—directly on the messaging tool. And over our next several blog posts, we'll dive deep into how we do it.
But for now, let me share how the Moveworks platform lets your department give employees immediate support, minus the busy work for you:
