What We Do

Instabase is a Horizontal Application Platform for Unstructured Data, empowering the world’s largest institutions to finally transform their businesses end-to-end with future proof technology.

In 2015, Anant Bhardwaj was an MIT computer science PhD student and he realized the pain it took to streamline document-heavy processes. This led him to ask the question, “Why isn’t there a system that helps people automate processes with more ease?” Frustrated with the lack of products to help automate processes, he set his sights to create a system and Instabase was born.
