Use cases

What Kos handles

Kos fully owns and completes critical finance workflows

01

Invoices

Payapps and vendor invoices, reconciled line-by-line against (GMP) contracts. Catches missing backup, overbills, calculation errors. Email commentary; answer q's over chat; upload to ERP.

02

POs

Generates, routes, and closes out purchase orders, navigating your ERP like a skilled human, asking clarifying questions over Slack, email, or call.

03

Your finance workflow

Every org has unique process + org design. And processes evolve, particularly under hypergrowth. Teach it any new workflow over screenshare like a new hire, and it will strictly run audit-grade within those rails. EX - Utilities billing, ERP automation, draw requests, month-end close, and more.

How it works

How Kos works

Kos is given its own workstation, org identity, and software licenses to complete work.

There's no UI or app to use Kos; it's a fully virtual human.

01 / Communicate like a teammate

Email, Teams, Slack, phone, Zoom, Meet

Forward an invoice to Kos the same way you would to a colleague. Ask questions over chat. Call. Share a file.

02 / Uses your existing software

Your software, Kos’s identity

Excel, Word, SharePoint, Google Drive, your ERP. Own workstation, own identity in your org chart, own RBAC + audit logs.

03 / Learns over screenshare

Walk it through

Invite Kos to a video call, share your screen, walk through a workflow. It asks questions, then replays the work on a new task, sharing its screen back so you can see it run until it’s to your liking.

“People see trillions of infrastructure buildout. After a 27 year career as Equinix’s CFO, I see a “multi-trillion” backoffice problem that needs to be solved. Every dollar deployed creates immense financial operations work whether it be utility bills, draw requests, invoice reviews or purchase orders. This impacts everyone in the ecosystem, not just the developers. The opportunity for Kos AI is large, and they’ve put together the right team with the right product supported by the right investors.”

About

About Kos AI

Why?

We're Tanuj and Mani. We met at Stanford as graduate researchers under Sachin Katti.

Tanuj spent his career in and around the operators Kos serves: IT, datacenters, industrials, and hardware. He previously founded Spot AI, a computer vision company which scaled to over 1,000 enterprise customers. Mani's an International Olympiad medalist, earned his Engineering PhD at Stanford, & published leading research at Microsoft Research. He then built product within Microsoft's Strategic Missions and Technologies group.

We started Kos because the finance and operations teams behind America's re-industrialization are talented, overwhelmed, and can't hire their way out. Every CFO we spoke to described the same problem: 800-page pay apps, thousand-page contracts, work piling up on weekends, and a talent pool for inventory, utiltiies, capex, and construction accounting that's simply too small to meet the moment. The back office of the buildout is the bottleneck, and it's the one nobody's building for. They deserve a partner that can keep pace with their ambition.
