Our

Story

Women Applying AI was founded by a team of passionate professionals who saw a gap: women needed not only access to AI tools and knowledge, but also a safe, collaborative space to learn together. Since then, we've grown into a global community that champions bold voices, practical skills, and the power of peer support.
