Every year, billions of hours are wasted on repetitive and manual work. This is work that can and should be automated, but has been overlooked. Quandri is building software robots to fix this.
Our robot fleet enables our customers, currently insurance brokers, to automate many of their most time-consuming and repetitive processes by handing them off to a software robot. These software robots can be deployed into a customer’s software systems and work within their processes similar to how a person would, but at lightning speed and for a fraction of the cost.
We’ve begun by tackling massive problems around repetitive and high-volume work in the insurance industry in Canada, and have no shortage of product and geographic expansion opportunities over the next few years where this technology can have an even larger impact. We’ve raised venture capital from top US and Canadian investors to help us achieve our mission of repurposing 1,000,000 hours from repetitive to more meaningful work. We're growing fast, and are on track to 3x this year. You will help us 3x again next year.
