Impesa, a SaaS development company offering a suite of FinTech and InsurTech products, has been chosen as one of the 50 most promising FinTech solution providers of 2018 by CIOReview.

In the short time since its founding in Costa Rica during 2013, then the launch of its revolutionary SaaS FinTech solution — Monibyte — in 2014, Impesa has made its mark in Latin America and opened a business office in the United States. During the past two years, the company has developed Brainert — a business analytics tool for the payments industry, and Layla — an AI smart chatbot platform for the financial services and insurance industries that streamlines sales and customer service, saving money for its clients while offering greatly improved services for their customers.

We are proud to receive this honor from CIOReview. It validates our obsession with innovating truly useful products for the banking and insurance industries.
