Matthew Whiting

Co-Founder & CEO Cotiss

Matthew Whiting is CEO and Head of Product at Cotiss, a commercial intelligence platform built on the idea that most businesses already know more than their systems can show them.

He co-founded the company after more than a decade in finance and procurement, where the answers he needed were rarely in the systems built to hold them. Cotiss reads what a business already produces, its invoices, vendor emails, meetings and documents, and turns it into one record its teams can question and act on.
