What is YOV?
Our Story
- We build individual virtual personas (Versonas) tailored to the unique complexities of a relationship.
- We don’t build chatbots. We don’t create a universal version of someone. We’ve built Melodi’s Versona for her son, Justin (our founder). Likewise, we’ll build a husband’s Versona for a grieving wife, a father’s Versona for a devastated daughter, and the list goes on …
- As humans, we present different parts of ourselves to the different people in our lives, and that is the foundation upon which YOV has been built.
- We recognize that in order to deliver the most authentic and genuine experience to our users, we have to pinpoint the nuances in each of their relationships.
That’s the essence of YOV. We invite you to learn more.
In 2019, the founder and CEO of YOV,
Justin Harrison, was enjoying a thriving career in film and new media having amassed nearly 100 credits on IMDB producing and directing some of the biggest names in entertainment (Johnny Depp, Martin Sheen, and Jane Fonda to name a few) and ultimately landing as Head of Production for one of the leading documentary film companies in LA, when he found himself staring down death on two fronts: his own, from a near fatal motorcycle accident, as well as his mother’s stage-4 cancer diagnosis. Justin looked to technology for help and couldn’t find anything to preserve the unique bond between him and his mother. His solution was to find brilliant minds in the artificial intelligence space to help him and thus YOV was born.
