Our values

Our values drive everything we do at AssemblyAI and help cultivate a culture that is open and honest

Truth-seeking

We're not afraid to ask questions. We always seek clarity when there is ambiguity, and push each other to challenge assumptions and do our best work.

Assume nothing

We recognize that information can quickly become outdated at a company working at our speed, and strive to always make sure we are operating with a shared sense of status-quo.

Low ego

We look at things objectively. We're open to giving and receiving feedback up, down, and across – and strive to make the best decisions without our ego in the room.

Be a driver

We're highly committed, self-driven people operating with extreme levels of ownership and autonomy.
