We Take the Paper Out of Work
Paper-based work is soul-crushing, profit-sapping, and an anchor on individual, team, and organizational productivity. Paper literally smothers innovation, creating a competitive disadvantage. Founders Stephen Young, Brian Banet, and Tony Bishop saw the potential for a new kind of software company focused on driving out paper-based inefficiencies in core business functions, and so Square 9 was born. From its days as an early incubator project in 2005 to its current position as a leading intelligent document processing platform, we’ve never stopped innovating, and we never will.
More than 3,000 organizations in the U.S. rely on Square 9 to provide a platform for intelligent document capture, indexing, search integration, and business process automation. Let’s take the paper out of work together!
Our Story
From our humble start at a coffee shop in New Haven Connecticut’s historic 9th Square district, Square 9’s founders saw a unique opportunity to democratize the market for Enterprise Content Management software. Previously only affordable to large enterprise corporations at that time, we envisioned a way to bring ECM solutions that scaled up and down to all customers, allowing small and medium-sized companies to benefit as well from digital transformation.
Now, with a growing multinational market and a constantly expanding team of industry professionals, Square 9 Softworks continues to push the boundaries of what our solutions can do while even further revolutionizing the ECM industry. With the launch of our cloud hosted Solutions Delivery Network in 2020, Square 9 introduced the concept of predesigned, industry proven applications that serve as the foundation for your digital transformation strategy; regardless of organizational size. From the smallest company to the largest corporation, our goal is to simplify the process of digital transformation like never before while removing any and all obstacles to business automation.
