Wizard builds a B2B conversational-commerce platform that enables brands and retailers to handle opt-in, search, payments, shipping and reorders over SMS. The company emphasizes a mix of automation and human touch, combined with natural language processing, image recognition and deep learning to make text conversations feel human. Wizard acquired prior startup Stylust and brought most of that team and its brand relationships into the new company; Stylust had previously touted a 35% conversion rate on its cached site. Wizard does not yet have a product in market and declined to share detailed customer relationships or commercial metrics. The team works from offices in New York and Austin while hiring nationwide for a remote tech team. Planned hires include AI/ML/NLP engineers and non-tech roles such as sales, finance, operations and a chief people officer.
