Knowlix Launches AI Work Platform to Bring Enterprise Software to Small Businesses
Knowlix brings the tools a small business already uses, CRM, invoicing, expenses, projects, inventory, email marketing, scheduling, and purchasing, into one connected platform, and uses AI to configure it to each business.
Knowlix launched an all-in-one AI work platform that gives small businesses the kind of software only large enterprises could run before, set up by AI in minutes instead of months. The company was founded by Peter Meier, an augmented-reality pioneer whose first company, Metaio, became part of Apple’s AR ecosystem, and Francesco Wiedemann, a Forbes 30 Under 30 entrepreneur who helped scale mobility startup Kyte across the United States.
Small business owners start their company to do work they care about. As the business grows, they inherit a second set of jobs: invoicing, quotes, chasing payments, and stitching together a patchwork of documents, spreadsheets, and chatbots that only ever works most of the way. The busy work eats the evenings and weekends that should go into clients and craft.
The software that solves this was built for the largest companies on earth. Tailor-made systems, and the consultants to wire them together, were priced for fewer than 21,000 U.S. firms, around 0.1% of all companies. The other 99.9%, more than 36 million U.S. small businesses, nearly 30 million of them with no employees at all, were effectively locked out.
Knowlix brings the tools a small business already uses, CRM, invoicing, expenses, projects, inventory, email marketing, scheduling, and purchasing, into one connected platform, and uses AI to configure it to each business. The setup that traditionally took nine months and a team of consultants now happens in minutes, because an AI agent does the configuration work.
At the core runs the AI Teammate. It turns each day’s inputs into finished work: it pulls the right prices and variants from the latest price lists, drafts the quote with the correct tax rate, sends the invoice, places the inventory order, and turns a signed deal into a live project. The owner instructs it in plain language and keeps the upper hand, approving any business-critical action before it runs.
Because Knowlix runs on a real business database, it remembers. A customer served today is recognized in milliseconds years from now, without anyone digging through old email threads. Knowlix combines a system of record with a system of context, so the AI works from what the business actually is.
