It’s an argument that raises a larger philosophical question about software: are all jobs created equal? Is a local job lost more valuable than one (or two) created far away? What happens when customers don’t act in good faith, but use tech like Hyperscience’s to maximize profits by eliminating roles without replacing them anywhere else? “None of us are politicians or experts, we’re a software company,” Brodsky tells Forbes in a follow-up interview. Brodsky insists, like his RPA unicorn peers, that his technology can empower workers by freeing them up to more complex, higher-paid jobs, while raising the baseline of quality of care for health patients and the response times for insurance or benefits applicants – all while making it easier to hire talent anywhere.

“We’re seeing large global enterprise digital transformation happen at a pace over the last two months that I don’t think I’ve seen before in my career,” says Robinson.Īnnouncing its funding as protests in support of the Black Lives Matter movement and against police violence grip the nation, Hyperscience has also had to reckon with its software’s role in society.

But Hyperscience has never lost a customer, the investor claims, and Brodsky says his startup has seen a boost in demand since Covid-19 pushed businesses to work remotely. “You’re sitting there as an investor asking yourself, hmm, okay, how do I feel about the deal I struck,” Robinson says.

Hyperscience closed its round in March after a first quarter of 2020 in which the company says it grew revenue by 300% the day after the term sheet was signed, the market dropped 2,000 points.
