Growth through always‑on consumer understanding
Founded in 2024 and backed by Y Combinator, Conveo is the leading AI-powered customer insights platform. We help the world's largest companies understand their customers — running hundreds of in-depth video interviews overnight, across any language, at a fraction of the cost and time of traditional research.
Since launch, we've become a trusted partner for Unilever, P&G, Nestlé, Google, Canva, and 400+ enterprise teams globally.
What we're building
Customer insights has been broken for decades — slow, expensive, and impossible to scale. A study that used to take weeks of scheduling, interviewing, and manual analysis now runs overnight. Our AI moderates real conversations the way a trained researcher would: listening actively, probing for depth, and building on each answer. Over 70% of the insights we surface come from AI-driven follow-up questions — depth that no survey has ever achieved.
The result is a platform that doesn't just run studies. It builds a living knowledge layer — so every team in an organization can ask questions about their customers and get answers grounded in real human voices.
The opportunity
The market research industry is $100B. The qualitative slice alone is $30B. And AI is expanding what's possible, not just automating what exists. We're early in a long game.
The team
Our Head of Research, Niels Schillewaert, founded Human8 — a 600-person global insights agency. Our CEO co-founded a $75M ARR startup, Datacamp, as CTO. Our commercial team comes from McKinsey and includes former VPs from Ipsos. We raised a $5.3M seed round in early 2025.
The moment
We entered 2026 as a team of ~20. We're on track to reach 120 people by year end. If you want to join a company at the exact inflection point between early-stage scrappiness and real scale — this is it.
