Inventors of the AI Customer Advocate
As business operations grow more complex, meeting customer expectations has never been harder.
We believe AI can solve this—but only if it’s built to empower people to serve people, not just profits. That’s why we invented the AI Customer Advocate: an evolution of Agentic AI that represents the customer’s needs and strives to deliver perfect outcomes, every time.
We see a future where customer service disappears—and advocacy takes its place.
From Automation to Advocacy
Riptide is a San Francisco-based AI company pioneering
AI Customer Advocacy—a smarter, more efficient human approach to service that is powered by AI.
Co-founded by tech veteran Doug Marinaro, we started with a radical idea: customer service should work for the customer, not just the company.
Our mission is simple:
Empower businesses with AI that advocates for the customer, acts with agency, collaborates across teams, and delivers real outcomes.
That’s why we built Ripley, the first AI Customer Advocate. Ripley listens, coordinates, communicates, and resolves complex issues by working seamlessly across systems, people, and partners.
The customer is the center of Ripley’s universe—all decisions flow from their needs.
