Ripcord, a SaaS-based, next-gen digital transformation provider that eliminates paper to empower intelligent business processes, today announced the acquisition of deep learning company Engine ML. Backed by Kleiner Perkins and Catapult, Engine ML builds distributed deep-learning infrastructure designed to scale. Now the integrated solution will enable leading brands in finance, insurance, retail and energy to quickly and easily unlock the power of their data and turn it into actionable insight in days or hours instead of weeks or months.
The business value of semi-structured and unstructured data has been somewhat limited as extracting its intelligence remains a roadblock. Combining Ripcord’s AI and robotics-powered solution with Engine ML’s accelerated machine learning will eliminate these challenges in a way that has never been done before. Organizations will be able to drive quick and seamless next-generation digital transformation across an organization, speeding up return on investment and operational results from their business content.
