How Basis AI expanded into Latin American markets with specialized LATAM talent.

About our partner

Basis AI is an AI company operating in the Data Analytics and Decision Intelligence space. As the company continued developing and expanding its AI-driven product capabilities, the team began focusing on making the platform more adaptable to international markets beyond the United States.

Part of that expansion included improving the model’s understanding of accounting workflows, terminology, and operational nuances across Latin American markets.

Specialized talent at the intersection of accounting and AI

Basis AI needed accounting professionals with regional expertise who could help support and inform the training and development of their AI models for Latin American use cases.

The challenge was highly specialized: they were not simply hiring for traditional accounting support, but looking for talent capable of bringing localized market knowledge, accounting context, and regional operational understanding that could help improve how the product performs outside the US market.

Finding professionals with both accounting expertise and the ability to collaborate effectively inside an AI-focused product environment was critical for supporting the company’s international expansion goals.

A specialized search for regional accounting expertise

Tecla partnered closely with Basis AI to understand the broader strategic goal behind the hiring need — supporting the expansion and training of their AI product for Latin American markets.

Through the partnership, Basis AI brought on an Accountant Consultant with strong regional accounting knowledge and familiarity with Latin American business and financial workflows. The engagement focused not only on technical accounting experience, but also on communication skills, adaptability, and ability to collaborate with a highly technical AI-focused team.

Tecla’s understanding of the Latin American talent market helped Basis AI access specialized regional expertise that aligned closely with their product expansion objectives.

Localized expertise that accelerated international product expansion.

The consultant quickly became a valuable contributor in helping Basis AI strengthen the regional relevance of its product and AI training efforts.

By bringing in accounting expertise tied specifically to Latin American market realities, Basis AI was able to better support international product expansion goals and improve visibility into how the platform could adapt to workflows and accounting contexts outside the US.

The partnership gave the company access to localized expertise that would have been significantly more difficult to source through traditional US-focused recruiting channels, while helping accelerate product learning and regional market readiness.
