In our latest episode of What the Tech from Boast, recorded in person at Thin Air Labs in Calgary, we sat down with Sebastien Hiscock, Co-Founder of Purelend, to discuss how his company is using AI to fully automate the manual checks and underwriting that have plagued the mortgage industry for decades, and why the best AI solutions empower humans rather than replace them. 

Sebastien's path to founding Purelend is a masterclass in experiential learning. He started as a software developer at WestJet, got his first "fake startup experience" building the Swoop subsidiary, then joined Neo Financial at an incredibly early stage as one of the first 10 employees in mid-2019. 

Boast accelerates the success of innovative businesses globally with software that integrates financial, payroll, and engineering data into a single platform of R&D intelligence.
