Summer 2026 Business Operations Intern

At Inflection AI, our public benefit mission is to harness the power of AI to improve human well-being and productivity.

The next era of AI will be defined by agents we trust to act on our behalf. 

We're pioneering this future with human-centered AI models that unite emotional intelligence (EQ) and raw intelligence (IQ)—transforming interactions from transactional to relational, to create enduring value for individuals and enterprises alike.

Our work comes to life in two ways today:

Pi, your personal AI, designed to be a kind and supportive companion that elevates everyday life with practical assistance and perspectives.

Platform — large-language models (LLMs) and APIs that enable builders, agents, and enterprises to bring Pi-class emotional intelligence into experiences where empathy and human understanding matter most.

We are building toward a future of AI agents that earn trust, deepen understanding, and create aligned, long-term value for all.

The ideal candidate has a strong sense of empathy, clear communication skills, and a deep curiosity for how technology and business intersect.

What You'll Do

• Operational Cadence: Assist in establishing and maintaining cross-functional operating rhythms, including scheduling and preparing materials for weekly meetings with engineering and product teams to facilitate timely product and platform releases.

• Customer Communication: Provide timely, empathetic, and technically accurate responses to users primarily via email, ensuring all communications align with our brand and tone guidelines.
• Public Channel Monitoring: Assist in monitoring and responding to reviews on public platforms (e.g., App Store, Google Play), as well as engagement on community forums (e.g., Discord, Reddit). Maintain professionalism and brand voice, while strictly avoiding product or release promises.
