The conversational voice AI SaaS "IVRy" adopts Ruby on Rails as the foundational technology for its product, positioning it as a crucial element supporting flexibility and speed in backend development. Through its sponsorship of "RubyKaigi 2026," booth exhibition, and event hosting, the Company aims to express its gratitude to Ruby and contribute to the revitalization and development of the community.
This year, to embody our unique corporate culture, we will participate as a "Climbing and Wi-Fi Sponsor." Our company's vision is "Making 'Work is Fun' a reality. Changing 'working is fun' into common sense," and as a symbol of this, we have installed a bouldering wall in our office. We believe that this attitude of valuing "playfulness" and "challenge" has a high affinity with the passion and creativity of the Ruby community, leading us to decide on this sponsorship again this year.
Our Principal Engineer, Narita, has published a note about the background of this sponsorship and our thoughts on the Ruby community. Please take a look.
