A (not-so) secret
AI lab

Dessa researches and develops applications for emerging AI technologies at Square.



Next-gen products

As part of Square’s ecosystem, Dessa works closely with Cash App, a consumer finance app that makes money more accessible to millions of people.
Drawing from the latest AI research, our team is developing cutting-edge applications to help create a new generation of Cash App products.
‘Bananas!’
That's why we work on experiment AI projects that might seem 'bananas' at first glance to the average onlooker.
With these projects, Dessa's machine learning engineers have the freedom to follow where their curiosity leads them, with the goal of developing applications that lead to outsized real-world impact and technical creativity.

At Dessa we believe the ideas that seem like they’ll never work are the ones that change the world.
