Yseop (pronounced 'Easy-Op') is a French software company, specializing in no code intelligent report automation, using natural language generation (NLG). Established in 2000 with offices in Paris,[1] New York,[2] Lyon and Bogota. Yseop was a pioneer in NLG which laid the groundwork for Chat GPT and Generative AI. Yseop's original founding team sold their stake in the company to Next Stage, a French Private Equity Company.

Yseop was established in 2000 by Alain Kaeser, based on his research at the École normale supérieure Paris-Saclay (formerly ENS Cachan). Research and development for Yseop's technology began in the mathematical lab École normale supérieure de Cachan.[1] The company was co-founded with John Rauscher, after he sold his start-up called Sunopsis to Oracle in 2006.[1]

Yseop first commercialized its product as a middleware at the end of 2008, and opened up its American subsidiary in Dallas, Texas in 2012.[3]
