BackOps.ai, a San Francisco, CA-based provider of an AI-driven platform for automating supply chain logistics, raised $2M in Pre-Seed funding.
The round was led by Gradient, with participation from 10VC.
The company intends to use the funds to meet existing and projected customer demand as well as to expand use cases through further product development.
Co-founded by Sean McCarthy and Henry Ou, BackOps.ai provides supply chain customers with a tool to adopt AI into existing workflows—providing automation learned from their data in a way that previously required a backend engineer.
BackOps.ai is a central system linking disparate technologies, such as Warehouse Management Systems (WMS), CRMs, ERPs, and project management tools, into a single stack. The company facilitates data sharing and real-time process automation through key features that are accessible to all users.
- The Process Listener function monitors processes and identifies those ready for automation.
- The Process Coder function continuously creates scripts to automate processes.
- The Process Automator function implements these scripts to create an ever-improving supply chain stack.
Current use cases include automating daily reporting, external customer updates, internal team notifications, revenue calculations, and more.
The company plans to build on the success of its current product by eliminating manual data entry, enhancing cross-departmental communication, and driving operational efficiency to enable teams to focus on strategic initiatives and customer satisfaction.
