Introduction to Superbar

Superbar is the AI-powered search and answer bar built to drive conversion for e-commerce brands. It connects to your product catalog, content, and reviews to deliver fast, high-converting answers that help shoppers buy. It’s platform-agnostic, no-code, and self-improving via reinforcement learning. Backed by top investors, we’ve raised ~$5M to redefine how people shop online.

• 5+ years of experience building modern web applications
