About Roots:

At Roots, our mission is to make work more human. We are developing fully autonomous, AI-powered Digital Coworkers that streamline tedious and repetitive tasks. By tackling core challenges in natural language understanding and computer vision, we are building an automation product that embodies the future of work. Our platform makes automation accessible to everyone, enabling users to generate automations by describing tasks in simple English, while solving complex business problems with enterprise-grade results and performance.

Our primary industry focus is Insurance, where success hinges on our customer's ability to read and understand various unstructured legal, medical, and financial documents. Addressing this need, we've developed InsurGPT —a universal document understanding system that utilizes large language models specifically fine-tuned for the insurance industry, enhanced with Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) technology and a touch of prompt engineering.

‍

About the team:

Our team specializes in fine-tuning state-of-the-art custom models to meet specific business needs, surpassing GPT-4 in accuracy and efficiency. In addition to harnessing the power of pre-trained models, we are committed to building and refining our own multimodal models, tailored to the unique requirements of our use-cases. We take pride in developing custom inference endpoints that seamlessly integrate these models into our customers' workflows, providing low-latency, real-time document processing.

At Roots, we are committed to building a team of talented individuals who share our love for innovation and problem-solving. As we continue to expand, we are seeking a motivated AI Engineer to join our growing team.
