Solving.AI raises $1.1M CAD for ShowMe, an AI training platform that lets employees query complex software by voice or text. The startup plans to expand sales.
Solving.AI has raised $1.1 million CAD in pre-seed funding for an AI tool that trains employees on software like Salesforce and HubSpot. The Montreal startup's product, ShowMe, lets users type or speak questions as they work, reducing the time needed to learn complex platforms.
The drag of adoption is a significant cost for companies that spend millions on software, chief operating officer Alexis Boucher said.
"With ShowMe, they're able to start using it right away, and the learning curve is much faster."
Solving.AI targets the corporate training gap that emerges when large tech vendors sell multi-workflow systems to companies with thousands of employees. Low uptake often follows, Boucher said, costing the buyer in lost productivity and delayed returns on the software investment. ShowMe attaches to the existing interface and answers procedural questions in real time, either by text or voice.
The founding team includes Benjamin Philion and Daniel Acevedo, who previously worked at job platform Talent.com, and Boucher, who spent time at Lightspeed Commerce and Vasco. The $1.1 million round came from AQC Capital and Quebec angel investors. Boucher said the startup plans to spend the money on go-to-market efforts and expects to raise another round in 12 to 15 months.
