About Soliloquy

Founded by Catherine Winchester in mid-1997 in New York, Soliloquy is at the forefront of the next generation of web infrastructure technology. Soliloquy creates natural language user interfaces that humanize e-commerce by making the online shopping experience conversational and interactive rather than passive. Soliloquy's Conversational Sales Experts are natural language products that allow shoppers to hold intelligent two-way dialogues with web sites by typing (and later speaking) using their own words. Talking to a Soliloquy Expert, such as Pick-a-PC™, feels like chatting with a live person — except that it has 100% knowledge of all products, is available 24/7, and is a fraction of the cost.
