Natter
Natter is an enterprise AI conversation intelligence platform that runs thousands of honest, one-to-one video conversations across a workforce at once, then uses AI to surface the themes, sentiment, tensions and priorities leaders actually need to hear. Pitched as the replacement for surveys and focus groups, it turns a seven-minute conversation into more than a thousand words of usable data and delivers organised, anonymised insight within hours rather than weeks. Founded in 2021 by former BBC and Uber operators, the company raised a $23M Series A in April 2026 and counts Accenture, ServiceNow, PwC and Philip Morris International among its users.

Charlie Woodward is the CEO and co-founder of Natter, an AI-native conversation intelligence platform that runs thousands of simultaneous 1:1 video conversations to capture the voices of employees, members, and customers at scale. A former Uber business development executive and BBC head of commercial partnerships, Woodward started Natter in 2021 as a remote-work 'virtual watercooler' and pivoted it into an enterprise tool that replaces surveys and focus groups, returning themes and sentiment within hours. In April 2026 Natter raised a $23M Series A led by Renegade Partners and moved its headquarters from London to New York.
