US/Romanian-founded software company selling robotic process automation (RPA) software that automates repetitive office/back-office tasks.
Customers pay annual subscriptions, and most land with a few automations then spread them across departments, so growth depends on existing customers expanding. It is steering from classic RPA, which copies clicks and keystrokes to automate fixed routine tasks, toward agentic automation, where AI software agents handle less rigid work.
Moat: narrow (switching costs, installed base). Automations built around business processes create switching costs, though generative AI threatens rule-based RPA's relevance.
