About FurtherAI
At FurtherAI, we are building a workforce of AI Teammates to automate insurance workflows. These AI Teammates can practically automate any insurance workflow involving processing unstructured documents, data entry into internal systems or web portals, or even making phone calls.
Our core mission is to answer a critical question: Can AI be made as reliable, adaptive, and continuously learning as a new human employee?
We have successfully raised a pre-seed round from top-tier investors, including Y Combinator, South Park Commons, and Converge VC. Our founding team features a second time founder and a language modeling scientist from Apple, who have known each other for over 12 years.
