Auctor raises $20M led by Sequoia Capital
Softype, a leading global NetSuite implementation partner with over 120 employees across the Philippines, United States, Asia, and Africa, deployed Auctor AI to transform its end to end client lifecycle, from sales and proposal generation through project delivery and training. Within months, the platform became embedded across Softype’s core workflows. Meeting intelligence captures discovery insights, proposals are generated directly from client context, and full traceability is maintained from initial client conversations to final deliverables. The results speak for themselves, with $2–3 million in pipeline generated, complex RFPs completed in days instead of weeks, and a scalable foundation for company wide knowledge centralization. With Auctor, Softype increased throughput without adding headcount while reducing misalignment risk and accelerating time to client value.
CEO and Founder Juliana “Nana” Luz describes Auctor as “great for consulting companies that have to deliver work product,” and has actively championed adoption across the organization while building a vision for company wide knowledge centralization.
Softype faced operational constraints common to professional services organizations:
The organization required a solution that could meet enterprise security requirements while delivering efficiency gains across global delivery teams.

Softype's rapid adoption was driven by executive championship and the platform's intuitive design:
This executive-driven, self-service approach enabled Softype to achieve rapid adoption without extensive training overhead. New team members are contributing within days, and the platform continues to expand across the organization.
A $500-600K tender arrived on January 2nd. The territory manager was on vacation until the 6th. Nana didn't even hear about it until the 7th. The last day to submit questions was the 12th. Final deadline: January 19th at 5pm.
As Nana pointed out “These RFPs you cannot normally even respond to because they’re so complicated. There are so many rules: a section can’t be more than three pages, the answers have to be formatted in a specific way, and some parts can’t exceed 400 words.”
As the CEO noted: “Having Auctor feels like having a few extra people working on these tasks with great ease and consistency.” This represents significant cost savings and accelerated ROI across the organization.
With Auctor, Softype dramatically increased their capacity to pursue new business.
Softype is expanding Auctor across their entire client lifecycle, with a clear vision for company-wide knowledge centralization.
