About

We Built This Before.
Now We're Building It For the Agentic Era.

Upware AI was founded by a team that spent a decade automating enterprise processes the hard way, and started over with everything they learned for the AI age.

The Origin Story

In 2018, CEO Tomer Suarez founded InterAI, a vision-powered automation company that delivered production deployments at AT&T, JPMorgan Chase, and Walmart. The technology proved you could teach machines to interact with software by seeing the screen. But it also revealed the limits: traditional automation was brittle, required months to deploy, and broke the moment UIs changed.

In 2025, systematic customer development with 70+ Fortune 1000 companies revealed a universal pattern: organizations had invested heavily in AI for analytics and insights, but their AI was stuck in read-only mode. It could tell you what to do. It couldn't do it. Upware was founded to close that gap, with governed, deterministic action infrastructure for the agentic AI era.
