HerculesAI (formerly ZERO Systems) is a Campbell, California enterprise AI company that builds a verification layer for documents and transactions in regulated, data-intensive industries. Founded in 2017 by Alex Babin and Gevorg Karapetyan, it trains and orchestrates ensembles of specialized mid-sized AI models -- 'AI workers' -- to read unstructured documents, reconcile data across systems, and validate every transaction against contracts, rates, policies, and regulations. Originally focused on legal billing and time capture, Hercules now targets order-to-cash operations across finance, insurance, and staffing, counting Fortune 500 clients including Mercer, S&P, and State Farm.
PointOne is a New York-based AI platform that automates timekeeping, billing compliance, and firm intelligence for law firms. Instead of forcing attorneys to reconstruct their day in six-minute increments, PointOne passively captures activity across documents, email, calendar, web, and calls, then uses AI to generate complete, compliant, narrative time entries. Founded in 2023 by former Google engineers Katon Luaces and Jeremy Ben-Meir, the company raised a $16M Series A in 2026 (total funding ~$20M) and reports customers capturing 6-11% more billable time per day.
