About the Company
- Audit and finance are still massively manual and we are changing that.
- DataSnipper is a $1B, bootstrapped unicorn with 600,000+ users across 180+ countries, already embedded in the daily workflows of top audit and accounting firms.
- We are taking things further with our Excel Agent, bringing AI directly into where the work actually happens.
- Our AI operates inside Excel, with access to real documents and audit evidence, meaning it does not just generate answers, it does the work, with full traceability.
- We are not just applying AI, we are redefining how audit gets done.
- If you want to build something category-defining at scale, this is the place.
