A word invented by accident decades before it was needed. A little girl and her mom used to call each other by their full names said backwards whenever they were feeling silly. Her first name backwards came out "Nybor," and her last name backwards came out sounding like "Yikhnitzu." Squish it down and you get NyBitz.

Fittingly, it rhymes with kibbutz, from the Modern Hebrew root q-b-s, "to gather, to collect." A kibbutz gathers people to work the land together. NyBitz gathers the scattered bits of a business, the seventeen spreadsheets, the sticky notes, the process that lives in one employee's head, into a single intelligent system that runs it all.

The little girl grew up and named her AI systems company after it. The silly backwards name became the whole business model: collect the pieces, make them work together.
"Our entire operation used to be spreadsheets, texts, and a guy named Dave who knew where everything was. Then NyBitz gathered it all into one system. We got NyBitzed."
