About us
Factorial is the AI for Business that knows companies, connects how work happens across the business, and turns that context into action.
Founded in Barcelona in 2016, we now have +1,700 employees serving more than 16,000 companies across 112 countries.
Factorial started with a simple idea: companies were spending too much time managing processes and not enough time doing the work they were hired to do:
their best work.
But as companies grow, work gets more disconnected. More people, more tools, more information, and more time spent connecting the dots. Generic AI can answer questions, but it doesn’t know your company. Every time, you have to give it the context.
Factorial is different. Because it’s inside the company, it already knows how it works, including its people, processes, policies, and data. So you can ask it to do real work, from screening candidates and managing expenses to answering questions and creating reports.
AI isn’t the goal. Giving people back their time is.
When work changes, so do we
