About Drawbridge
Drawbridge is building a platform that enables large organizations to run their business operations through a combination of process intelligence and agentic AI. The company captures and operationalizes enterprise process knowledge by reverse-engineering operational workflows from workers and transforming them into living specifications that agentic AI systems can execute. Founded by a team that previously built process discovery and knowledge capture tools at Orby AI and Scribe for Fortune 500 enterprises, Drawbridge is defining a new category at the intersection of process intelligence and AI automation. The company raised a seed round led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with backing from founders and executives at companies including Sierra, Stripe, and Datadog. Based in San Francisco and New York City, Drawbridge operates as a small, early-stage team with a 5-days-in-office culture.
