Simplifai Signs Strategic Partnership With Documaster and Signs Up Two First Municipality Clients

Simplifai shakes hands with the rapidly growing document management company Documaster, and signs a strategic partnership agreement. Known as one of the five Norwegian technology companies included in the Financial Times list of FT 1000: Europe’s Fastest Growing Companies, Documaster will include Simplifai’s AI services to support the public as well as private sectors.

The partnership has also managed to close its first two clients in the form of two Norwegian municipalities, thus becoming a key strike in its plans for growth in the public sector. Documaster will use Simplifai’s AI-driven solutions to enable receipt generation and management of emails, user/customer inquiries, and document processing. This work will be a part of the public as well as the private sector.

“We will together with Simplifai strengthen our value proposition within two highly relevant areas; automated archiving of unstructured data and reduction of costs related to digitalization of analogue documentation. These are major challenges for all our customers today.”

First Two Clients Signed Immediately

The agreement has led to instant fruition with two clients in the form of Norwegian municipalities already coming onboard with Documaster to implement Simplifai’s automation services. One municipality will adopt the AI-powered solutions for archival of its documents that include planning and building material. The other municipality will use the solutions for HR document management.

“Both Documaster and Simplifai is founded on an idea of automating and reducing time and money spent on document management. Our technology offering is highly complementary so we believe this could become powerful and profitable cooperation for both parties.”

Expanding in the Public Sector with a New Growth Strategy

Signing up with Documaster is a part of Simplifai’s strategy to expand in the public sector both in Norway and globally. In February, Simplifai signed a breakthrough public sector agreement with National Archives Services of Norway which has generated several requests from Norwegian municipalities.

“Documentation requirements in the public sector are strict, and the volume of correspondence and documents that are exchanged between municipalities and its “customers” – their local population – is almost incomprehensibly high. Hence, Simplifai’s AI-driven technologies, which help our clients to automate these processes, could play an important role in modernizing the public sector and free up public servants’ time.”
