Sapien, a platform to create “autonomous coworkers” for finance professionals, officially launched on Tuesday. The founders announced an $8.7 million seed fund for the startup, which touts its ability to use AI to dive into company financials and tackle complex, days-long workflows in just minutes. Sapien likens its tools to "AI coworkers" who work alongside finance teams.
The startup is the brainchild of its three founders—CEO Ron Nachum, CTO Pranav Ravella and chief scientist Arya Grayeli—who raised the money from lead investor General Catalyst and from other venture capital firms and angel investors.
