We're a minority-owned organization founded in July 2020, headquartered in New Jersey. We're building AutoPilot - an advanced business process automation platform powered by IBM's cutting-edge technology. The platform integrates artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and hybrid cloud technologies to help enterprises automate complex workflows across industries. What makes us different is our deep integration with IBM's ecosystem. We use Watsonx.ai for generative AI and natural language processing, Watsonx.data for managing large datasets, and Qiskit for quantum optimization. AutoPilot runs on Red Hat OpenShift in a Kubernetes environment, uses IBM Cloud Paks for development, and includes security through QRadar and Guardium. We're also modernizing legacy systems by integrating mainframe applications through IBM's Z series solutions.

Lightfield builds the AI-native CRM that remembers everything. The platform automatically assembles itself from your email, calendar, and meetings, capturing every interaction and turning it into organized context. Lightfield eliminates manual data entry by creating a world model of your business - a complete record of every customer conversation, every decision, and every insight. Traditional CRMs force sales teams to become data entry clerks, logging notes and updating fields instead of closing deals. Lightfield takes a different approach. It reads emails, analyzes meeting transcripts, and synthesizes unstructured data into actionable intelligence. The platform helps founders and sales teams prepare for meetings, automate follow-ups, surface stalled deals, and answer any question about their business with natural language queries. Built by the team that created Tome - used by 25 million people - Lightfield is backed by Greylock, Lightspeed, and Coatue.
