## Products & Services
- **Pangram AI Detector**: A SaaS platform that detects AI-generated text from all major LLMs (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Llama, DeepSeek, etc.) with 99.98% accuracy and a false positive rate of 1 in 10,000. Supports 20+ languages.
- **Plagiarism Checker**: Integrated plagiarism detection in a single tool alongside AI detection.

- **Product differentiation**: Moving beyond simple binary detection to nuanced analysis (AI generation vs. AI assistance vs. human writing).

## Why Work Here
- **Founding team from top AI labs**: Work alongside former Tesla Autopilot, Google, Nuro, and Absci researchers — a steep learning environment.
- **Mission-driven**: Directly tackling one of the most pressing problems of the generative AI era — content authenticity and trust.

- **Open roles include**: Senior Software Engineer (Backend), Machine Learning Engineer, AI Research Scientist, Full-Stack Engineer, and Executive Assistant — indicating a broad, growing team.
