Rohan Chopra saw at DoorDash how one person—Steve—kept the entire delivery network running by manually matching orders to drivers. When the company scaled, that approach hit its limit, so Chopra built software to automate Steve’s job and free him for higher-value work. He realized the same pattern played out in countless businesses: skilled employees spending hours on repetitive tasks because existing tools don’t adapt to their processes.
That insight led Chopra and his Stanford pals, Will and Diego, to found Convey. It lets non-technical teams create “digital teammates” that learn a user’s workflow through screen-sharing and simple Q&A. Once trained, these AI agents live inside a company’s systems with their own identities and permissions. Unlike ad hoc prompt loops, Convey converts each agent’s behavior into versioned, testable programs. That reliability matters when you’re running business-critical processes at scale.
Convey’s agents have already handled over 1.1 million hours of work at enterprises like NBCUniversal, Unity, TelevisaUnivision, Samsara, ChargePoint and Faire. One large streaming service reclaimed 450+ hours weekly by automating reporting and ad operations. Savoya tapped Convey to boost EBITDA by 40% year over year and expects to save 10,000 hours this year. Those numbers convinced a16z to lead Convey’s $38 million Series A round.
The founders’ track record—two sold companies, one critical hire at DoorDash—adds to the appeal. If your team is stuck running rote workflows, Convey aims to plug in ready-made operational agents without code. They’re hiring now, and a16z is backing the effort to turn repetitive work into a fully automated process.
