Mendo

Mendo provides a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platform designed to accelerate the adoption and integration of generative AI within large companies. Founded in 2021 by Quentin Amaudry (CEO) and Alexandre Pinon (CTO), the Paris-based company aims to bridge the gap between AI's potential and its practical application in daily workflows. Amaudry, with a background in data and finance, and Pinon, a data scientist and project manager, created Mendo to address the challenges of low employee adoption of new technologies by providing engaging, personalized, and interactive training.

The company's core offering is a work-integrated platform that helps employees master generative AI tools like Microsoft Copilot 365 and ChatGPT. Instead of passive video tutorials, Mendo utilizes a hands-on approach with a toolbar that allows users to learn by doing, with personalized learning paths tailored to specific job roles and existing skill levels. The platform focuses on turning AI usage into a habit and provides services for acculturation, training, and change management. This methodology is designed to improve productivity and ensure that AI becomes a sustainable driver of business transformation. Mendo serves major enterprise clients, including GRDF, EY, and Groupe Yves Rocher.

Mendo operates on a B2B subscription model, with revenue generated from fees for its platform. The company has secured significant funding to fuel its growth, including a €700,000 seed round in November 2023 and a €3.5 million Series A round in October 2024. This capital is being used to expand its team, enhance its product offerings, and drive international expansion, particularly in the United Kingdom.
