CEO Note: Daloopa started with a phone call
Daloopa was born from a phone call I made in 2019. Frustrated with the manual data extraction process as a tech analyst, I reached out to Jeremy Huang and Daniel Chen, who were working in tech and had experience in AI. We were driven by the idea that AI could automate the extraction of valuable financial KPIs, which was previously thought impossible. After building a prototype with solid data, we received feedback to expand our coverage. Confident in the product’s potential, I decided to go full-time, marking the official start of Daloopa.
