Julian Guthrie is the CEO and founder of Alphy and co-inventor of Reflect AI, a proprietary technology that detects and flags harmful, unlawful, and unethical language in digital
communication in real time. Reflect AI integrates with everyday workplace tools to reduce the risk of costly litigation and reputational damage stemming from harmful communication.

Before founding Alphy in 2020, Julian spent twenty years as a journalist at the San Francisco Chronicle. Her journalism was nominated multiple times for the Pulitzer Prize. She has written
five nonfiction books, three of which became New York Times bestsellers. Her fourth book, Alpha Girls – being adapted for a television series – features four women who succeeded in the
high-stakes, heavily male world of venture capital in Silicon Valley and helped build some of the foremost companies of our time. Julian and her team have applied their language skills to build a
highly accurate and specialized AI communication classifier that detects over 30 categories of harm with a 92.4% accuracy detection rate.
