OUR MISSION

To save every busy professional time and money, by democratizing access to personal assistants through autonomous AI.

The Problem

Today, the world is busier and more hectic than ever. While modern technology has enabled incredible leaps in productivity, it has also created incredible challenges – particularly when it comes to administrative tasks. According to the latest research from Goldman Sachs, employees can spend 30% of their time on administrative tasks. That’s nearly 70 working days per year of lost productivity.

For example, in a single week one employee can spend as much as:

  • 10 hrs emailing and conducting outreach
  • 9 hrs searching for and gathering information
  • 5 hrs scheduling and preparing for meetings
  • 4 hrs navigating 20+ productivity apps
  • 1 hrs planning and booking travel

For elite senior executives, they can leverage executive assistants for help. For the rest of us, this isn’t an option to improve our productivity. With the power of AI, 46% of these tasks can now be given to an autonomous AI assistant; the cost to each employee is nominal and the benefits are astronomical. Imagine a world where every busy professional has their own personal AI assistant that can get all these tasks done for them. That’s the power of NinjaTech AI.
