Lahore, Pakistan – February 9, 2022 – Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today unveiled Galaxy S22 Ultra, merging the best of two smartphone legacies – the unrivalled power of the Note series and the pro-grade camera and performance of the S series – to set a new standard for premium smartphones. Featuring a built-in S Pen, advanced Nightography and video capabilities, and battery life that lasts over a day, Galaxy S22 Ultra is the most powerful Ultra device Samsung has ever created.

“At Samsung, we constantly push ourselves to raise the bar on our most premium devices,” said TM Roh, President and Head of Samsung Electronics’ MX (Mobile eXperience) Business. “Galaxy S22 Ultra takes the beloved functionality of the Galaxy Note and the most celebrated aspects of the S series and merges them for a truly unique mobile experience. This is a leap forward for mobile technology, setting a new standard for what a smartphone can be.”

From creative capabilities and productivity to power and performance, the Galaxy S22 Ultra brings everything you love about the Note experience — including its signature S Pen — to the S series.

Samsung’s Most Powerful S Series Phone Yet

For the first time ever, note users’ favorite built-in S Pen is coming to an S series device — and it’s the fastest, most responsive S Pen we’ve ever made. With 70% lower latency you can write and draw more naturally on your S22 Ultra’s expansive screen and explore apps in new ways.

With S Pen, the S22 Ultra becomes more than a phone. It embraces the legacy of the Note while opening up new ways to be creative and get things done. The result is a mobile experience unlike any before.

With seamlessly integrated camera lenses and a sleek metal frame that creates a mirrored effect, Galaxy S22 Ultra represents Samsung’s most premium look and feel. Luxurious glass and haze finishing adds an elegant touch to S22 Ultra’s reimagined linear, floating layout – complete with Galaxy Note’s iconic sharp angles – all encased in a streamlined design. As durable as it is striking, Galaxy S22 Ultra comes in four nature-inspired color options, including Phantom Black, Phantom White, Green, and new on S22 Ultra, Burgundy.

Capture Stunning Photos and Videos, Day or Night

With Galaxy S22 Ultra, you can capture footage that’s instantly post-worthy – in any lighting conditions. Advanced Nightography features available on the entire S22 family of devices allow you to snag crisp, clear videos on both the front and back cameras, whether you’re recording during the day or night. S22 Ultra is built with a 2.4um pixel sensor – Samsung’s largest pixel sensor ever, enabling its camera lenses to capture more light and data, optimizing the lighting and detail of your video clips. Plus, S22 Ultra’s advanced Super Clear Glass lens helps you take smoother and clearer nighttime videos without flares. Meanwhile, video Auto Framing ensures your camera always captures exactly who you want, whether that’s one person or ten.

With zooming capabilities that will get you 100x closer to the action, Galaxy S22 Ultra isn’t just Samsung’s most powerful camera, it’s also the smartest. Packed with new AI supported features like Portrait mode, Galaxy S22 Ultra is built to make every photo look professional. With S22 Ultra’s robust intelligent camera capabilities, your phone does the heavy lifting, so you always capture stunning photos and video in any lighting.

Whether you’re an amateur or a professional photographer, Galaxy S22 Ultra gives you all the tools you need to snap a beautiful shot every time. Galaxy S22 Ultra offers exclusive access to the Expert RAW app, which features a comprehensive suite of in-camera editing tools that deliver a DSLR-like experience and let you enjoy more creative control. With the ability to save photos in RAW format up to 16bit, you can take more control over your edits with more of your images’ data. And just like a DSLR camera, you can brighten or darken your photos with ISO settings and shutter speed, adjust white balance to make your photo more warm or cool, and manually focus on your desired subject to get your images looking exactly the way you want.

Unbridled Power and Performance

Galaxy S22 Ultra is built for the most productive workdays. S22 Ultra is part of the first Galaxy S series to be equipped with the latest 4nm processor, which powers Samsung’s most advanced AI and ML processing. It also features Wi-Fi 6E, up to twice as fast as Wi-Fi 6. That means you can enjoy unrivaled performance on all your most-used apps, whether you’re gaming, streaming, or working. All that power runs on Galaxy S22 Ultra’s powerful battery, which gives you more than a full day of use in a single full charge. S22 Ultra also supports 45W super-fast charging, so you can record more than 50 minutes of video – after a 10-minute charge. Work, play games, watch videos, and more, with power that always keeps you connected.

Whether you’re viewing content or creating your own, Galaxy S22 Ultra’s immersive 6.8-inch, Dynamic AMOLED 2X display brings everything to life in stunning detail and brighter than ever with a peak brightness of 1,750nits. Plus, Vision Booster technology enables Galaxy S22 Ultra’s screen to intelligently adjust brightness throughout the day, making sure you get the best possible view of your content even in bright sunlight.

As part of our commitment to giving users the best possible mobile performance and experience, the entire Galaxy S22 series will be supported by up to four generations of Android OS upgrades.

Unilever Pakistan Wins Top Honors At The OICCI Women Empowerment Awards

Feb 9, 2022

It goes without saying that Unilever Pakistan is one of the country’s most famous and recognized FMCG names. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that the manufacturing giant has always been several steps ahead when it comes to innovation and technology but there are also organizational attributes they are setting a benchmark for such as agility at the workplace and their equity, diversity and inclusion practices. The company has championed women empowerment by always going out of its way to promote, support, and facilitate women including their female employees and the women of the country through their various initiatives over the years.

At the recently held Overseas Investors Chamber of Commerce and Industry – the OICCI Women Empowerment Awards, Unilever Pakistan was awarded the top honor “OICCI Women Empowerment Award 2021”. The company was recognized for its continuous efforts in areas of inclusion, diversity, and equity. The company is one of the few organizations that remain committed to moving the needle on gender inclusion. This honor is a vital step in shining a bright light on the agenda of diversity and empowering women of our society.

Unilever is an organization that understands the lack of access to opportunities for women and actively advocates for inclusion and representation. The company is committed to going further than ever to break down barriers and create opportunities of growth and progress in our workplaces, our supply and distribution chains, and most importantly, our society. They believe that this won’t only be beneficial for their business but will have a significant impact on the world. And this award encourages the company to keep moving forward in that direction.

Unilever takes pride in its female employees and makes it a point to encourage and appreciate them for their work. Women are presiding important positions in the company and are present in all departments. The company is aware of the challenges women face when they come to work which is why the company has Day Care Centers for female employees who have to bring their kids to work. The company also offers maternity leaves and medical insurance among other incentives for its female employees. Unilever Pakistan also has a Career By Choice program in place to encourage women to return to the workplace after a gap.

The Overseas Investors Chamber of Commerce and Industry (OICCI) members consist of top 200 foreign investors. The committee recognizes and lays emphasis on the rising importance of women and how their involvement is imperative to create an enabling environment. It has become obvious that having women at the forefront is necessary to accelerate the economic growth of the country, according to Mr. Ghias Khan, President of OICCI. He wholeheartedly commended the efforts of foreign investors at the OICCI Women Empowerment Awards 2021 that were held earlier last week.

OICCI has kick-started various studies and research projects. The committee has been holding an annual survey among its members by recognizing those who have played an integral part in focusing on women empowerment. A policy paper from OICCI titled “Increasing Women’s Inclusion in the Pakistan Economy” was also presented to the Ministry of Human Rights last year. “OICCI had initiated the OICCI Women Empowerment initiative in 2017 and has been regularly advocating for women empowerment among its membership”, Khan further added.

The purpose of the awards is to bring women to the center stage in business and operations and highlight the sensibility and acumen women bring to the table. Women are also business runners and executives who deserve a chair on the high table and it is high time the world, corporate and otherwise, make space for them.

Huawei's Lipstick-Inspired Earbuds Is Something Every Woman Would Love — Image source: goodgearguide.com

In a market saturated with very similar-looking earbuds, it’s hard to stand out from the crowd. Apple chooses to keep its iconic white headphone design with its AirPods, while Samsung has introduced colour-coordinated cases to match its smartphones. Other brands tend to keep it safe, but most earbuds and their cases still end up looking very similar.

Now, Huawei Consumer Business Group (CBG) has announced the launch of the HUAWEI FreeBuds Lipstick today. The new stylish earbuds perfectly combine luxury design with cutting-edge technology. While providing consumers with a pair of earphones that offer both a stunning appearance and excellent audio quality.

The Unique Design

The HUAWEI FreeBuds Lipstick is designed by talents from various fields, including global luxury, fashion, automotive, and digital as well as brand strategy industries at Huawei’s Paris Aesthetics Research Centre.

The main drawcard for these headphones is, obviously, how stylish and unique they look. But, with that super-sleek aesthetic comes some high-calibre materials. The earbuds themselves are a gorgeous red, while the case is finished in a black and gold colourway. Looking like a clear and clever imitation of an actual lipstick bullet.

The charging case is made from luxury-grade stainless steel and is wear-resistant. Another nice bit of attention to detail is that the charging case has a magnetic feature, that mimics the click of a lipstick case when closed.

The headphones also come in scented packaging (the scent remains in the package and will fade eventually) to give you that experience of shopping for luxury beauty products. It’s the little things, right?

Features And Specifications

HUAWEI FreeBuds Lipstick uses dual-microphone noise cancellation, which can effectively filter out environmental noise. It will automatically select the most suitable set of noise cancellation parameters from more than 10 different sets. Huawei has tested the earbuds’ design to ensure Air-Like comfort for people with all ear types.

Moreover, the HUAWEI FreeBuds Lipstick features Adaptive Ear Matching Equaliser adjustment that automatically detects the ear canal’s shape and wearing conditions and assigns the best equaliser setting for the users. Using the HUAWEI AI Life App, consumers can choose from three modes of equalisers, including balanced (default), bass boost, and treble boost, to enjoy a personalised audio experience.

The HUAWEI buds come with an upgraded battery. With noise cancellation turned off, it offers 22 hours of music playback with the fully charged charging case or 4 hours of music playback with the fully charged earphones. The powerful battery life allows users to enjoy music anytime and anywhere without worrying.

What do you think of these earbuds? Let us know in the comments below.

Feb 9, 2022

Coke Studio season 14 has been brilliant and everything our ears always wanted and then some. The studio came back with a bang for this season and has been belting out songs that exceed the previous in terms of its quality.

Let’s Be Real

While we will be walking you through people’s favourite songs, let us first share ours. For us, it has to be Tu Jhoom because the song has the capacity to simply blow one away. From the lyrical composition, the tune to the voice of Naseebo Lal and Abida Perveen, it does not get better than this.

‘Tu Jhoom’ is a song which gives you calmness and energy at the same time

People’s Favourites

Tu Jhoom, Kanna Yaari, Pasoori, and Mehram are people’s favourite tracks from the season. While Tu Jhoom enjoyed its popularity fully, Kanna Yaari, according to people, is underrated. People also can not help but be impressed by Eva B who sang her heart out while owning her niqab.

After a long time, Coke Studio released such a good season that the credit goes to the producers and directors who made this season memorable with their hard work and dedication. Every song has its own charm.specially Pasoori Song.and lyrics of Tu jhoom 👌👏

NRSP Launches Internet Dost And Internet Zabardast Project

By

Feb 9, 2022

February 9, Islamabad: National Rural Support Programme (NRSP) with support from Google.org, Google’s philanthropic arm, launched today the ‘’Internet Dost and Internet Zabardast’’ project in an online event held in connection to Safer Internet Day 2022. With this $475K grant, this project aims to contribute towards a Digitally Literate and Safe Pakistan.

The “Internet Dost and Internet Zabardast” project is poised to train 18,000 rural women from all over Pakistan to use Internet and digital technologies to enhance their quality of lives. In addition, 25,000 schoolchildren (adolescent boys and girls) will be educated regarding the safe and positive use of digital technology and how to be ‘safe internet explorers.’

Speaking during a keynote address speaker for the digital launch, Shafqat Mahmood, Federal Minister for Federal Education and Professional Training, highlighted the importance of technology during the pandemic.

‘’As we embrace online life, we have understood that the Internet is a powerful tool with enormous opportunities for learning, enhancing skills and acquiring new abilities and knowledge, as highlighted during the COVID-19 pandemic,’’ he added. He also reiterated the government’s commitment to bridge the digital divide and provide Internet for all.

CEO NRSP, Rashid Bajwa while introducing the Internet Dost and Internet Zabardast programmes said that despite rapid advancements in internet access in Pakistan, particularly via mobile internet use, which has nearly doubled from 2018-2020, the digital divide between men and women remains stark. Bajwa stressed that while the elimination of the digital divide must be a priority in the nation’s efforts to increase internet access, these efforts must also consider the unique or disproportionate vulnerabilities children and many digitally disadvantaged people may face from the internet.

Farhan Quraishi, Regional Director for Pakistan, Bangladesh and Srilanka added,‘’ We are confident that our initiatives will build a critical role in helping the women and youth of Pakistan not only learn digital skills but also explore the online world with safety and confidence”.

Experts at the digital launch highlighted how governments, development partners, community networks and big tech companies can come together to support women, men and children to gain access and skills so that dividends can be truly reaped for digital technologies.

In his closing remarks, Shoaib Sultan Khan, Chairman NRSP said that a long-term strategy is needed to close the digital divide to address the issue of offline inequalities manifesting themselves online.

#OathForHer: Shan Foods’ Recent Ad Is The Best Thing We’ve Seen Recently

#OathForHer: Shan Foods' Recent Ad Is The Best Thing We've Seen Recently — Image Source: Facebook

Progressive ads are more important than we give them credit for. Ads are a passive way of inculcating values in the hearts and minds of people who watch them and so, thinking about making important ads is important. Shan Foods is not coming slow with its latest ad for its masalas and it’s got to be one of the best ones we’ve seen recently. Have a look:

Societal Woes

The ad is about female doctors and the double identities women in Pakistan, harbor. In our culture, a woman’s profession comes secondary to her role as a mother or as a wife. Therefore, when women do put in most of their young lives in trying to get a doctor’s degree, they fail to practice.

Shan Foods ad tells us approximately 77% of women are unable to practice their degrees after their marriage. Let that sink in and then think whether the same is true for men.

What is The Ad About?

The ad is simply about this conflict. It shows a daughter-in-law taking the oath of being a doctor and her mother-in-law is initially in the crowd. The way the mother-in-law mirrors the words of the oath but restricts it to the house is powerful and gripping. Moreover, when the ‘bahu’ has a child and she leaves it with her mother-in-law, we imagine that she would be angry about it.

However, that is where the twist comes! The mother-in-law is not your run-of-the-mill one who would berate her daughter-in-law for following her education and passion. She, instead, uses Shan Foods to make food for her. She then takes it to her workplace along with her baby and it’s the most adorable sight.

Watch the ad here

Why This Is So Important

This is such an important ad not because it tells you who should be cooking but because it tells you making food is not one person’s job. Making food is an integral part of our living which should be an enjoyable experience for anyone who’d like to do it. Unfortunately, because of how cooking has been made a duty for women for which they’re also punished, even those who like to cook stay away from it.

Getting so many replies about the @shanfoods new ad, yes I saw it! So glad to see this issue getting the importance it deserves. Women must always be encouraged to pursue their dreams. Amazing work Shan foods. #OathForHer https://t.co/PhQnmpixNz

— Humayun Saeed (@iamhumayunsaeed) February 7, 2022

This ad is a step in the right direction because it offers a neutral way of going forward. Choosing to follow your dreams does not make you a bad mother or a wife!

Top 10 Ways to Save Your Smartphone From Getting Hacked

By

Farah Shah

Feb 9, 2022

With the growing dependency of our lives on smartphones, there is a more significant threat of putting ourselves at risk considering the vast amount of data stored on our smartphones. It has become an integral part of connecting our world with others. Considering this, no compromise can be made when it comes to the security of the data on our devices.

Hence, we give you the following security tips to keep your smartphone’s data safe.

Data Encryption

Since a smartphone is used for all kinds of online searches, ensure making your online experience safe. For this, one needs to access the websites through a secure network using HTTPs://, which means the site follows the standards set by PCI data security. Data encryption is essential to make your internet access safer.

Lock Your Phone

One of the basic yet essential tips is to keep your smartphone locked using a password or a pattern. This will limit the access of others to one’s smartphone.

Strong Passwords

As recommended for online security, the key to safe online experience is generating strong passwords for all the accounts. Make sure to have different passwords for all your accounts accessible on your smartphone. This is an essential security tip to keep hackers at bay.

Keep Backup of Data

Since the data stored on smartphones these days are more than just contacts and messages, one needs to back up the data to make it available for a later time. Backing up data will give the users a chance to keep the information safe from loss.

Install Antivirus

A computer without an antivirus isn’t good enough to operate; the same is the case with the smartphone. Until and unless one has an authentic antivirus installed on the device, it is prone to all kinds of third-party intervention. Hence, the installation of antivirus is first and foremost for a smartphone user.

Download Apps from Trusted Clients

One thing that most users neglect while installing the apps is not reading the privacy policy. This is essential as it suggests what the app can access on a smartphone. Make sure to read the privacy policy of the apps before installing and try to install apps from trusted stores like iOS and Google Play.

Keep Your Software Updated

The thing with the smartphone is the software and apps’ new updates keeping emerging. Hence, one needs to keep the software and apps updated to avert the risk of making the data vulnerable.

Avoid Public Connections

Using wifi in cafes or shopping malls is the most common behavior among smartphone users as the need for connectivity is always there. However, public wifi and hotspots are not secure, and using it will put the user more at risk of the hackers who can use the backdoor to access your private data.

Provide Secondary Email

It is essential to get your data linked to one of the other email accounts in case if the smartphone is lost. This will provide you the chance to have access to your information via secondary email if you can’t access your primary email.

Turn off wifi or Bluetooth when Not in Use.

Most users don’t bother to turn off their wifi or Bluetooth even when not in use. This can make hackers more easily access your smartphone for private data. Moreover, turning off the wifi will also ensure an increase in battery life.

As data security has gained immense importance over time, one cannot take smartphone data lightly. The more the security measures are made, the better the protection of one’s private data, and hence, the better the experience of the smartphone.

Ali Gul Pir Reacts To His Death Hoax & It Is Hilarious

Ali Gul Pir is responsible for making us laugh till the cows come home on several occasions. However, the comedian’s life was recently cut short by an online tabloid who wanted to see him dead. The comedian handled the news in his classic way and we have to say, we want to tweet from the dead too. Read more about what happened here:

Ali Gul Pir’s Death Hoax

This picture was circulating on social media which was beyond hilarious. It was trying to create speculation over whether the comedian was still alive or not. The picture reads that very sad news has reached us all, has he died? The question mark after “inteqal” was enough to have us start laughing. Moreover, underneath it says that there is a “matam” going in his home. His loved ones are grief-stricken.

What is also incredibly funny is how they have added a picture of a dead body’s (seemingly) feet in a cloth? Honestly, today’s news creators are on another level. There is also a picture of an ambulance. We are very happy to know at least it reached him on time, doesn’t reach anyone else. Have a look at the picture here:

How Did The Comedian Handle It?

Pir handled it in a classic comedian way as always. He saw the picture and took it as an opportunity to add to the joke. He reshared the picture and confirmed his death, “Yes, I am dead.” It’s a strange world we live in where people confirm their own deaths but hey, it’s Ali Gul Pir.

Yes I’m dead. Tweeting from the grave, I won’t go easy pic.twitter.com/Vyt2TpAsXw

— Ali Gul Pir (@Aligulpir) February 6, 2022

The best part has to be when he says he is “tweeting from the dead”. As dull and dreary life is going on nowadays, it makes sense to say that. More than just saying so, we agree and relate to what he said.

The Memes Come Through

You already know our meme-making capacity. It’s brilliant. Have a look at all the memes that came as a result of this exchange.

Top 10 Brands That Almost Died Out But Didn’t Give Up

Lack of innovation can sometimes lead to business failure. This can cause brands to lose it all, leading them to shut down for their good. No matter how good the business idea is, if the innovator is not willing to take a risk or imply appropriate measures, there comes a time when they have to let it all go. However, if the brands can overcome those hard patches and failures, they sometimes tend to bloom.

Today we are doing a round-off of all the brands on the brink of bankruptcy and shut down but eventually came back with a bang.

1. Apple

The story behind apple is very well known, but even a company like Apple had its fair share of product failure and innovative technology. This leads the company to go in a downward spiral for almost 12 years. Finally, however, the launch of the new iMac with a successful rebranding campaign led apple to become one of the most successful companies in the world.

2. Fed Ex

As of today, Fed Ex is a $30 billion corporate giant. It took the company the loss of $1 million per month because of fuel costs in the 1970s. At one point, the company’s worth stopped as low as $5,000. However, after a constant struggle, it has become one of the biggest self-sustaining brands in the world.

3. Marvel

Founded by Martin Goodman, Marvel was started in 1939, and it had its ups and downs ever since. Marvel scored enough money from selling the comics Spiderman, X-Men, Thor, the Avengers, the Fantastic Four, and the Guardians of the Galaxy. However, it still went bankrupt in 1996.

Later, a deal was made between Marvel’s board of directors and Merrill Lynch, who financed Marvel’s movies. As a result, Iron Man, the first film produced under the new deal in 2008, grossed nearly $600M worldwide, and ever since then, there was no going back.

4. Starbucks

Even though the chain started with a peak, the company was hit by a global recession and increased competition from Dunkin Donuts and McDonald’s. In addition, Starbucks had expanded too fast, and its stock lost 42% of its value in 2007. A new line of heated sandwiches and merchandise sold in the stores was the prime culprit for the brand’s fall. However, after closing down almost 600 stores and introducing new loyalty programs, the brand got back on its feet by 2010.

5. Polaroid

Polaroid went bankrupt twice between 2001 and 2008 and both times due to different reasons. For almost a decade, the polaroid parent company mostly worked on visualization, sharing, and affordability, leading the product to what we know of it today.

6. Air BnB

A multimillion-dollar company that emerged overnight and grew into something monumental. However, When Airbnb started back in 2008, it struggled to find investors all over Silicon Valley. Later, the team had to resort to some patchwork financial fixes, and they started creating custom cereal boxes to make ends meet. Finally, after finding the investments they needed, they got back on track.

7. Converse

The old is a gold concept in fashion was well revived when it got back after it filed for bankruptcy, and the brand was bought by bike for $350M. Nike’s infrastructure and Chuck Taylor brand took converse to new heights.

8. Nintendo

In Nintendo’s history, there also came the point when they failed to innovate with 2001’s Gamecube. The same thing happened in 2012 with the Wii U’s touchscreen controller. By the end of 2014, it had caused the company to suffer tremendously. Finally, the company corrected the Wii U’s long load times by creating a streamlined process that allows players to turn on the device and get into gameplay with three button clicks.

9. IBM

IBM is one of the oldest brands in the world. However, IBM went through the same spiral of lacking innovation when personal computers and client servers threw IBM an industry curveball. They tried to compete in that market, but their high-priced machines couldn’t keep up with their competitors’ smaller, cheaper machines.

10. Reddit

Currently, one of the world’s most popular online platforms, with more than 169 million unique visitors per month, had to go through the same fate. With zero visitors after its launch in 2015, the company founders started inventing fake accounts and holding mock discussions on the platform until some visitors started noticing and trickling in. This, in turn, eventually increased the traffic and surge in online visitors.

Spekit Raises $45M To Reinvent Training For Remote Teams

Feb 7, 2022

Karachi, February 2, 2022] – Spekit, the brainchild of Pakistani powerhouse Zari Zahra and cofounder, Melanie Fellay, has announced raising $45 million in Series B funding led by Craft Ventures, with participation from Felicis, Operator Collective, Matchstick Ventures, Renegade Partners, Foundry Group and Bonfire Ventures, as covered by Forbes. Spekit is the leading platform for onboarding and training remote teams. Now, it becomes the first female-founded company to raise funding of this calibre in Pakistan, bringing the company’s total funds raised to $60 million.

With hubs in Karachi and Denver, Spekit is attracting top-tier technical talent in Pakistan, eager to join the mission to reinvent how we learn at work. The company is rapidly expanding its presence in Pakistan and looking for new talent across software engineering, leadership and more. Since raising a $12.2M Series A funding round in March 2021, Spekit has tripled its employee headcount and grown revenue more than 300% year-over-year. Many of the world’s most innovative companies including Uber Freight, Snowflake, Outreach, Invesco and Southwest Airlines rely on Spekit to empower their employees with real-time knowledge and training, without disrupting their day-to-day workflows.

“Mel and I started this journey with our founding engineering team in Karachi and, while we’ve since expanded across the US, it’s clear that Silicon Valley is no longer the only place where world-class products are built. A key to achieving our growth has been leveraging the immense talent across both nations to build a collaborative, high-caliber team. This is both a competitive advantage and, on a personal level, a source of real pride for me as a Pakistani,” said Zari Zahra, Spekit’s Cofounder and Chief Product and Technology Officer. “We’re growing rapidly and intend to deepen our roots in Pakistan, as well as the US, by finding more talented people to help us build this iconic, market-defining platform.”

For the last three decades, companies have relied on PowerPoints, training sessions, learning management system courses, and manuals to educate employees on products, roles, and tools. But, between the global shift to remote work and the rapid pace of SaaS evolution, the workplace looks drastically different today than it did thirty years ago. Spekit replaces ineffective traditional training methods by surfacing bite-sized training, resources and guidance directly within the applications employees use every day. This alleviates the pain of searching for answers by making knowledge instantly accessible right when it is needed.

“We live in a world of ‘instant’ – one-click shopping, Uber rides, and Google searches. Why should we settle for anything less at work? Spekit is creating the same ease of learning in our professional lives as we have in our personal lives. We’re building an intelligent and personalized learning engine that is built for this new age of remote work, constant innovation and change” said Spekit CEO and cofounder, Melanie Fellay. “The love customers have for our product and company wouldn’t be possible without our team in Pakistan and I’m continually impressed by the caliber of talent in the country.”

Teams leverage Spekit to reduce employee ramp time, introduce new tools, roll out process changes and eliminate time spent searching for answers. When enablement leaders at OwnBackup came to Spekit, they were in a period of hyper-growth after raising a $240 million Series E funding round and scaling from 300 to more than 500 employees. “Spekit gives our reps the product and process knowledge they need to master their roles, directly within the tools they use every day like Salesforce or Slack,” said Thomas Cheriyan, the Senior Director of Learning and Development at OwnBackup. “This saves the enablement team time answering repetitive questions, but, more importantly, drives the productivity of our reps so they can focus on what they’re best at – closing deals.”

“Spekit is pioneering the future of workplace learning with their native, just-in-time enablement platform,” said Brian Murray, Partner and COO at Craft Ventures. “Melanie and Zari are a powerhouse duo: clear vision, A+ product, cult-like customer happiness, and a buzzing team culture. We’re thrilled to join Spekit as they make the tools we use more accessible and powerful.”

With this infusion of capital, Spekit will focus on scaling both the team and the platform – leveraging data to design completely personalized learning experiences for employees that will propel them from novice to master, faster.
