What is Kili?
Kili is an AI assistant for businesses that automates repetitive tasks using large language models (LLMs). The platform empowers business users to build custom automation workflows without requiring technical knowledge or engineering support. Users can create automations within minutes using natural language, allowing software to be customized for their specific needs rather than forcing them to adapt to pre-built software.
The platform features a unique interface that combines chat and visual canvas elements. The chat interface provides simplicity for basic interactions, while the visual canvas allows users to see and manage complex tasks visually. The assistant and canvas share the same state, meaning the AI can take actions that update the canvas, zoom in to answer questions about specific steps, or zoom out to figure out what to do next to achieve the automation's goal.
Kili seamlessly integrates with existing business applications including Quickbooks and other accounting/ERP software. It extracts data from supplier bills and invoices via email, categorizes transactions, performs line item extraction, and synchronizes data across business systems. Users can run automations on demand, on a schedule, or when specific events happen. The platform also offers ready-to-go digital workers for tasks like lead generation, ticket categorization, and updating CRM with meeting notes.
The platform prioritizes privacy and security, providing real-time logs of all automation activities. Users can run automations on their own infrastructure or Kili's infrastructure. Kili is designed for solo founders, small businesses, medium businesses, and enterprises using ERP systems who want to automate bill processing, invoice management, expense tracking, and other repetitive business tasks.
