Sola

No-code AI-driven enterprise workflow automation

Overview

Sola.ai builds an AI-native process automation platform that helps enterprises automate back-office workflows using intelligent bots. It records a task on screen and uses large language models plus computer vision to generate adaptive, self-healing bots, with a visual no-code workflow editor that allows non-technical users to design and monitor automations. Unlike traditional RPA, it focuses on AI-driven adaptability and accessibility, including integration with legacy systems that lack APIs. The goal is to deliver rapid ROI by replacing manual tasks such as data entry, claims processing, and compliance reviews, and to scale automation across business functions.
