Hut Secures $3.5 Million in Funding for AI-Powered Productivity Tool
Hut, an Austin-based startup, has raised $3.5 million in funding led by Cool’s resident Ventures, RK Invest, and 13. The company’s core product is a PDF tool that allows users to upload formatted files and ask questions about them, helping them find relevant and important information in the document without having to read the whole thing.
The long-term vision for Hut is to develop tools that make people wiser and more productive. The future of work will involve automation and freeing up people to be more creative.
The $3.5 million investment will be used to expand the Hut team, including developers, product designers, and business development.
Hut offers different pricing tiers, including a free trial and options for students and teams. The platform highlights and references the original PDFs for instant fact-checking.
Hut is entering a crowded field of productivity chatbots that can read uploaded documents. Other platforms that read PDF documents include Anthropics Cloud, Praxity, and ChatPDF.
The funding will enable Hut to reach a wider audience and explore new markets while further developing their technology for potential applications and services.
