Anvil secures $5M from Google Gradient to make traditional paperwork thing of the past

The $5 million investment was led by Gradient Ventures, Google’s AI-focused investment fund, with participation from Menlo Ventures and 122WEST. Anvil offers a “low-code” automation platform which helps to eradicate the inefficiencies of repeated paper use. The completion, processing and storing of paperwork costs America more than $1 trillion annually, Darian Shirazi, general partner at Gradient Ventures, said in a written statement.
