The number of businesses using their platform is rapidly increasing due to the Nylas infrastructure generating huge operational savings through more productive, secure, and intelligently-automated development cycles.

The company has remained focused on scaling its integrated and productivity-driven developer experience as well as furthering its investment in disruptive technologies that automate workflows and seamlessly integrate technologies such as conversational AI, Natural Language Processing (NLP), Optical Character Recognition (OCR), and cross-system intelligent automation.
