Why we do what we do
Our story began when our founder, as an intern, was bored out of his mind with manual data entry.
He wanted to be anywhere but there, but necessity is the mother of invention. With a rudimentary grasp of programming, he coded a macro that took twenty seconds to handle his twenty hour data entry task. This was the start of something great.
Our intern went on to work for a tier one defense contracting company, automating different missile systems and financial workflows. He saw the inefficiencies several companies face and the toll it takes on employees. Seeing people suffer and resources squandered, he started a business with two aims in mind: make businesses more profitable, and simplifying the tedium so employees can focus on what matters to them and the company.
