Alelo is a world leader in artificial intelligence (AI) avatar-based learning solutions for corporate, government, and academic applications. Using cloud-based AI simulations, learners engage in interactive conversations with socially intelligent virtual humans in a realistic setting. They role-play with avatars as often as they like on a mobile device, desktop, or virtual reality headset. Immediate feedback provides personal instruction on how to improve. When encountering a real-world situation, learners are confident and adept. Alelo’s online learning methods are transforming the way people acquire real-world skills worldwide. Alelo is a Hawaiian word meaning “tongue” or “language”. It also refers to the tip of a traditional Hawaiian canoe paddle, the leading edge that cuts the water and propels the canoe forward. It is the perfect name for a lead-edge company that promotes interpersonal skills. We chose Hawaii as a theme because it is a cultural crossroads – where people of diverse backgrounds respect and embrace each other’s traditions and work together harmoniously.
