What Axiom.ai does

Axiom.ai is building a no-code browser automation tool. This lets anyone automate repetitive work by recording clicking and typing actions in their browser. We think the market has huge potential - companies like UiPath built $10 billion+ businesses by automating processes on the desktop - an industry now known as Robotic Process Automation (RPA). We think RPA has a lot more potential outside the Enterprise. Axiom is on its way to being the industry-standard RPA tool for the browser. It now ranks alongside Selenium - the historical industry standard - as the top result when searching for ‘Browser Automation’ on Google, and is the top-result on Chrome’s extension store.

No-code Browser RPA

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We build a no-code tool that lets anyone automate repetitive browser tasks by recording their clicking and typing. Users create browser automation scripts without coding by interacting with webpages, making it easy to automate workflows that would otherwise be manual and slow. Our product is aimed at professionals and teams who want to automate routine work in the browser without developer help.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in London, England, United Kingdom, with a remote team. After YC we plan to keep the company based in London with a distributed team.

Explain your decision regarding location.

We chose London because that's where we're based and have built our early traction. It's a good hub for connecting with B2B users and recruiting.
