About Avante
We are a “weeks-old” company, founded in 2023 by experienced technologists and entrepreneurs. Our founders have experience founding and serving on the executive teams of multiple billion dollar+ companies over their multi-decade long careers. We are pursuing a $1 trillion+ dollar market, with the opportunity to positively impact the lives of millions of Americans. Our ambition to pursue this massive market is rooted in a mission that has three parts: first, to solve a problem that plagues almost every company and every individual in America, second to do so using the most bleeding-edge technology and AI, and third to build an exceptional company that will be known for its joy, camaraderie, and financial opportunity.
