Forbes Names Brain Technologies Founder and CEO Jerry Yue to its 2022 “30 Under 30” List


Recognition Honors “The New Guard, the Young Innovators, Trailblazers and Disruptors Remaking Our World”

SAN MATEO, Calif., Dec. 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Brain Technologies, Inc., the artificial intelligence company with a mission to humanize technology, announced today that Founder and CEO Jerry Yue has been named by Forbes to its “30 Under 30” list for 2022.

“I am honored and humbled to receive this recognition, but more excited that Forbes has recognized the potential of our Natural app, the world’s first consumer generative interface that puts people at the center of technology,” said Yue. “Before Google, information lived passively behind catalogs of keywords. We had to know which website to access for the information we needed or scroll through pages of keywords on Yahoo. Today's apps live in similarly layered and passive systems. We have to firstly know an app exists, and make an effort to find it, before we can use it. That is the issue we are addressing with Natural.”

Natural is the first interface enabling software to be in-sync with your intention. You no longer go to apps, apps come to you. Simply say what you want and the right app forms itself around your words. For example: 

  • Instead of jumping between different delivery apps to find the restaurant you're looking for, ordering sushi is as easy as saying, "Order sushi," and all the restaurants that deliver to you though any platform show up right in front of you. Natural automatically picks the fastest or cheapest delivery platform based on your preference. Simply tap on the one you like and check out. 
  • Today, if you want to travel to Maui, you need to jump between multiple travel apps or websites for the best combination of convenience and price, navigate through each website’s forms and interfaces, and manually compare options—a time-consuming, frustrating process. With Natural, booking is as easy as saying, "Book me a flight to Maui next Friday for 3 people,” your words generate interfaces in real time and Natural compares all the options available to present you with the best choices. You never have to re-enter your passenger and credit card information again. 

Natural is currently focused on commerce applications, which is the company’s first manifestation of its vision for the future of software. From food delivery, buying groceries, finding recipes and retail shopping to booking a trip, Natural makes it easy for users to run their lives from one place.
