Overview
LLMs created a new era of automation. While previous workflow automation platforms could only automate tasks with basic if/then logic, LLMs unlocked complex reasoning in natural language.
However, the quality of LLM outputs and decisions is highly dependent on the specific context they’re given. Insufficient, disorganized, or outdated data can cause AI to respond inconsistently (or even hallucinate), making it hugely unreliable for business automation. Enter: Cassidy.
Cassidy is a more intelligent automation platform that makes every decision with full context on your business.
How it works: Cassidy’s knowledge base connects to your company’s existing knowledge tools (Slack, Notion, Drive, etc.) and automatically cleans, prepares and keeps your business’s data up-to-date. It removes the concept of “one-size-fits-all” logic and instead allows your team to reliably build powerful AI workflows that make complex, human-level decisions, all with a nuanced understanding of your company.
Cassidy was built for both non-technical and technical users, making effective AI automations accessible to teams of all shapes and sizes. Today, we’re thrilled to announce our $3.7 million funding led by The General Partnership, Neo, Comma Capital, Spacecadet Ventures, Ride Ventures, and angels like Erik Goldman (Co-founder of Vanta), Jason Dorfman (CEO of Orum), Zach Sims (CEO of Codecademy). We closed our round in November 2023 and have been growing fast...
What makes Cassidy’s automations ‘intelligent’
Companies typically want to consolidate their tooling, and since Cassidy's workflows are tailored to how a business operates, it works ‘intelligently’ in a few different ways:
It gets smarter with more interactions
Cassidy’s automations improve over time. Each interaction cites its sources, allowing you to verify and exclude specific information through human-in-the-loop processes. This transparency ensures your data remains accurate and up-to-date. As more interactions occur, Cassidy’s performance is refined, incorporating added context and prompt adjustments to continually enhance the system’s reliability.
It understands your business
Cassidy connects with all knowledge tools (Slack, Sharepoint, Confluence, etc.) to give AI context on your business, customers, competitors, brand voice, and more. It pulls the information in real-time so that it’s constantly up-to-date with what’s happening at your company and in the market. This gives Cassidy human-like judgment, and keeps responses consistent across your entire team.
It’s fully composable software
Cassidy allows teams to quickly build custom AI automations and agents. Companies can tailor the software to how their business operates, designing workflows that match their exact team’s processes. We're creating hundreds of AI action blocks combined with all the leading AI models (all included with your plan) so you can bring your AI tech stack into a unified platform.
AI that can run asynchronously
Cassidy’s workflows allow you to build automations that run even while you’re sleeping. You can create triggers from hundreds of different tools to automate tasks automatically. Because our AI runs with specific guardrails and the full context of your company, you can trust it to perform reliably without needing a human in the loop.
Built for teams of all shapes and sizes
We're making AI automations accessible to teams of all sizes and skill sets. To stay ahead in the age of AI, automation is no longer optional—everyone needs to be able to build out automations. Cassidy is designed to make it incredibly easy for non-technical teams to use and build complex automations. We offer a library of pre-made workflows and a simple text-to-workflow creation process. For more technical teams and granular use cases, Cassidy has the flexibility to add code and prompt engineering. Cassidy also has enterprise-grade permissioning and security that you can trust to keep your data private and encrypted. You can set advanced user-level permissions for your automations and knowledge data to keep your data secure. Learn more about our security (including compliance with SOC II) at trust.cassidyai.com.
Cassidy in the real world
We started Cassidy a little over a year ago and are continuously blown away by our customers’ creativity, from startup founders automating responses to RFPs to global public companies automating their sales enablement flows for 12k+ companies. Some use cases to spotlight:
RVezy is a leader in online RV rentals that built a suite of sales enablement and customer success automations. Since their business model and ideal customer persona are incredibly nuanced, they couldn’t rely on typical if/then logic or scoring criteria to prioritize and respond to customers. The team embedded Cassidy into their workflows to automate customer support triaging, handle chargeback disputes, and draft replies with highly nuanced context. These automations understand RVezy’s business inside-out and make high-context judgments for each ticket trained on thousands of previous support inquiries.
“Cassidy allows us to be much more proactive in addressing critical customer complaints - automatically escalating issues to a manager who can solve customer problems quickly”
E78 Partners, a leading advisory firm, utilizes Cassidy's AI automations for research and knowledge transfer across teams. They've built automations that are hyper-personalized to support industry research and client facing projects.
"Cassidy personalizes its AI tools to know our business, clients, and industries better than any other AI-enabled company. Across the board, our team is obsessed with using Cassidy as a copilot to refine solutions, research external industry insights, streamline knowledge transfer across teams and find creative ways to automate the day-to-day monotonous tasks."
Lexer, a customer data platform, generates responses to RFPs in minutes. Their team created an AI workflow that extracts questions from documents, searches their knowledge base for answers, then writes a thorough response in Lexer’s brand voice.
“I never thought I’d be able to automate responding to our RFPs until I found Cassidy. It was incredibly easy to connect my tools, and helps us respond 3x faster to customers so we can close more deals.”
What’s next
At Cassidy, we believe AI is going to become more and more embedded into how companies operate, starting with automations. If what we’re building resonates, check out our many open roles at cassidyai.com/careers 👈
