Hey there, time traveller!

The Winnipeg AI (artificial intelligence) company spun out from Intouch CX (formerly 24/7 Intouch) was ranked as the second best startup employer in Canada in Forbes magazine’s first-ever ranking of Canada’s best startup employers
Laivly, founded in 2018, is part of the emerging class of customer experience technology that combines AI and automation with live agents to unlock the full value of human connection in customer care.
Gryd, the property-tech company ranked 106th on the list, was the only other Manitoba company in the ranking. Not surprisingly, the list is dominated by companies in the Greater Toronto Area, Vancouver and Montreal.
“We’re thrilled to be included on the Forbes list,” said Jeff Fettes, founder and CEO of Laivly. “The AI technology landscape is changing so rapidly right now that it can be challenging to create a fun and satisfying culture where you know your work every day is making a difference.
“We put a lot of focus on fostering curiosity, collaboration, and creativity at every level, and that has led to an incredibly diverse team excited about contributing to the future of this emerging tech.”
To be eligible for inclusion, companies were required to have at least 10 employees, to have been founded between 2014 and 2021. Publicly traded companies were not eligible.
Forbes evaluated a shortlist of 1,500 companies based on employer reputation, employee satisfaction and growth.
Laivly was founded to assist the customers of Winnipeg-based Intouch CX. That company operates more than 20 call centres all around the world and has about 25,000 employees.
