Our Review
We'll be honest — when we first heard about WRITER, we wondered if the world really needed another AI writing platform. But after digging into what May Habib and Waseem AlShikh have built since 2020, we're genuinely impressed by their laser focus on enterprise needs.
This isn't your typical ChatGPT wrapper. WRITER has developed their own Palmyra family of large language models, ranging from 128 million to 20 billion parameters. What caught our attention? They've created specialized versions like Palmyra Med for healthcare and Palmyra Fin for finance — showing they understand that enterprises need AI that speaks their specific language.
What Sets Them Apart
The standout feature is how WRITER bridges the notorious gap between IT and business teams. Their AI Studio lets enterprise teams build custom AI applications without making IT nervous about security or compliance. We've seen too many AI tools that business teams love but IT departments block — WRITER seems to have cracked that code.
Their customer roster tells the story: Uber, Spotify, L'Oréal, and Salesforce aren't exactly known for taking risks with unproven tech. When companies of that caliber trust you with their AI workflows, you're doing something right.
The Smart Money Angle
That $100 million Series B round in 2023 wasn't just about the money — it was about validation. ICONIQ Growth leading the round signals serious confidence in WRITER's enterprise-first approach. Unlike many AI startups chasing consumer markets, WRITER doubled down on the complex, high-value enterprise space from day one.
We also appreciate their decision to open-source smaller Palmyra models. It's a clever move that builds developer goodwill while keeping their enterprise crown jewels proprietary.
Who Should Pay Attention
WRITER isn't for everyone, and they're not trying to be. If you're a startup or small business, their enterprise-focused platform might be overkill. But for large organizations struggling to deploy AI at scale while maintaining governance? This could be exactly what you need.
The fact that they've built domain-specific models shows they understand that enterprise AI isn't one-size-fits-all. A healthcare company needs different capabilities than a financial services firm, and WRITER gets that in a way many competitors don't.
