Co-founded Zeitworks to provide enterprise customers comprehensive ML-based analysis of their business processes in order to first prioritize what to automate and subsequently to track the cost effectiveness of those automations enabling process improvements, and identification of best practices with zero disruption to their staff. Our B2B SaaS solution leveraged a combination of cloud-based services and homegrown DS algorithms, in conjunction with our own end-point sensors to gather behavioral data and derive detail process maps and analytics. Successfully raised initial $4m seed round. Led recruiting including CEO, CTO, and engineering team (at peak 11 FTE’s). Co-led BD efforts and successfully delivered four pilots. The first 4-week pilot identified $28m in improvement opportunities and a path to a path to 48% Efficiency Ratio.

Conducted market impact analysis on RPA leading to founding of Zeitworks. The key insight was that enterprises would first require a comprehensive analysis of their business processes in order to first prioritize what to automate and subsequently to track the cost effectiveness of automations. In addition a solution like Zeitworks would offer enterprises the ability to identify best practices, improvements to on-boarding/training, and other operational efficiencies.
