Announcing Rana Open-Beta
Announcing Rana Open-Beta
After almost three years of research and development, Rana is proud to come out of stealth and announce our open-beta.
Rana is an ecosystem of tools for artificial intelligence and knowledge management, designed for individuals and businesses to be able to embrace the changing world of technology as we enter the Age of Intelligence.
The solutions we have built at Rana incorporate the lessons, both by positive example and counter-example, that we have observed from living deeply within technology culture our entire lives. We believe that our technology should work for us, we should not be working for our technology, and the tools provided by Rana will help ensure this for the future.
