# Why is there a dot before the Empatyzer name?

The dot in .Empatyzer refers to digital technology and domain notation such as .com or .pl. It also echoes the dot before the title in the promotional materials for “Her”, Spike Jonze’s 2013 film about a person’s relationship with an AI system.

The AI system in the film shows an unusually strong understanding of human emotions and needs, which connects with Empatyzer’s focus on cognitive empathy. The dot gives the brand a distinctive digital signature while keeping the name itself simple.
