About Us
VinoVoss grew from a research initiative by UC Berkeley graduate students with an enthusiasm for wine, AI, and complex problems. Our team has expanded to include talented and passionate researchers, analysts, engineers, software developers, and certified wine experts, uniting from multiple continents to create an intuitive and personalized wine search and recommendation system. Together, we are driven by wine's ancient mystique and the intersection of old traditions with cutting-edge technology.
Our Product
We understand that the process of selecting wine can be overwhelming. The breadth of viniculture is challenging to navigate without a skilled guide, and the subjective nature of taste has long stumped traditional search engines. The VinoVoss platform provides a solution, combining the power of AI with the knowledge of sommeliers in a pocket-size package. On iOS, Android, and Desktop, browse wines using our advanced natural language search bar, which can understand prompts of any length or complexity. Or pull up our interactive Smart Somm chat to intelligently assist in wine exploration, answer questions, and provide educational insight. Our database is continually updated and monitored by our team of wine experts and sommeliers to keep up-to-date with today’s wine trends. From beginner to seasoned devotee, our search engine is a powerful and streamlined tool to help users build knowledge and shop, sip, and savor.
