01 / WHAT IT BUILT
What the company did
SenpAI.GG is an AI-powered gaming coach founded in Massachusetts in 2017 by Berk Ozer and Olcay Yilmazcoban. Its desktop assistant — built on patent-pending technology using computer vision, edge computing and deep learning — supports League of Legends, Valorant, TFT and Wild Rift, generating enemy insights, combo suggestions, in-game event notifications and strategy tips, plus a voice assistant for the esports industry. It works only within each game developer's competitive fairness guidelines, using approved APIs. The base app is free with paid advanced tiers. In August 2021 the company reported over 400,000 active users and an 11-person team, having raised a $2.9 million seed round from ACT Venture Partners.
