Wei Theng Lau

Co-founder & CTO

Wei Theng spent ten years taking machine-learning and LLM systems from data pipeline to production at Intel and XR Extreme – and knows exactly where AI output breaks down when nobody can inspect it. That’s the failure Assertion is built to prevent.

Why review

Plenty of tools promise an autonomous close. We build for the part that actually blocks adoption: review. If your reviewer can't see why a number is what it is, it doesn't matter how fast the machine produced it. Assertion makes AI work reviewable – the same way spreadsheet work always has been.

The roadmap

Our roadmap isn't a category – it's a list of whatever costs preparers and reviewers meaningful hours. This is informed by the founding team's deep domain expertise. Every conversation with an accountant since has added to it. We build down the list, whichever category it lands us in.
