Building the Modern Enterprise Automation Platform
Traditional automation software is slow & expensive, that’s why we built Automat. It’s 10X faster and 1/10th the price. It lets companies automate their work without a massive team or budget.
Our Story
Founded by two ex-Googlers who realized the potential of using AI techniques from robotics and applying them to software automations.
At Google, their team was tasked with finding product applications of LaMDA in early 2020, & they built over 50+ prototypes integrating LaMDA across Google’s products and services. Eventually Gautam (Automat CTO) would go on to implement multiple demos for Google’s first public Demonstration of LaMDA, the AI test kitchen.
Our team of robotics/ai engineers and operators at Automat work out of a former historic brewery, in the sunny San Francisco Mission District.
We believe:
Agency is for People
We believe knowledge work will be primarily done by AI agents, authored by humans. Our goal is to create the tools to make that possible.
Build Great Stuff
We obsess over craftsmanship. The tools we build should empower and delight the people who use them.
Build it Today
No matter your role at Automat, we're all makers who take action. We don't wait for solutions; we create them. See a problem? Innovate and resolve it.
Backed by the best.

This is the second edition in a series on where enterprise automation is headed. The first made the case for why manual work persists. This one gets specific: the root cause, the places it surfaces, and what fixing it takes.
