About
Knewit is a Japanese startup that combines artificial intelligence agents with business process outsourcing (BPO) to automate trade execution operations from procurement to delivery. Its AI agents read and structure unstructured information from emails, faxes, and PDFs, while BPO staff handle exceptions the AI cannot process. The company offers integrated consulting, products, AI agents, and BPO services without requiring customers to replace their existing core systems.
Fundz sees it the moment Knewit raises, hires an exec or expands, usually minutes after it happens, and tells you who to reach.
