Aramco Ventures backs Twin1 to build employee digital twins
Twin1, a San Mateo startup, has attracted investment from Aramco Ventures and other backers to develop personalised AI models that mirror employees by drawing on emails, meetings, documents and workplace applications. The digital twins can answer questions, locate information and perform approved tasks across Teams, Slack, Outlook, Gmail, Google Drive and SharePoint. Early tests with customers including Linklaters, Orrick, Dechert, Customers Bank and Aegis Energy reportedly automated 30–50% of communications work, and the platform offers six layers of controls plus private-cloud and single-tenant deployment options. The funding will expand teams and sales while raising privacy and governance questions.
