Miso is an AI bot that detects misogynistic and harmful comments made on messaging platforms!
In professional communication spaces–especially Discord for new startups, Miso ensures that HR is informed of misogynistic and toxic behaviour from employees. Ultimately, we hope to reduce misogyny within tech communities so that women feel more empowered to work in STEM!
This was the winner of the University of Toronto's Hackathon prize for best hack to promote female empowerment in STEM!
