Affinda Group is the life’s work of Melbourne brothers, Ben and Tim Toner.

The journey began in 2012 in Ben's apartment, just next to the University of Melbourne. Ben, with a PhD in quantum physics from Caltech, has always been fascinated by how technology can solve complex problems. He was inspired by advances in human DNA sequencing and how this technology could be applied to document processes. Tim, whose background is in investment banking, understood first-hand the value of streamlined solutions in document-heavy industries. He joined forces with Ben, applying his skills to scale the business and ensure that the technology delivers practical and impactful outcomes for customers. 

Affinda Group is now a trusted partner to organisations across a wide range of industries and use cases. With a world-class technical and commercial team across Asia Pacific, North America and Europe, the focus remains on helping customers capture tangible benefits from AI. 

The passion that began in Ben's apartment continues to drive Affinda Group forward today: a dedication to improving productivity, reducing friction in business processes, and freeing people to focus on higher value work. Ben and Tim’s story exemplifies what is possible when a special bond between brothers combines with shared ambition, customer centricity and a desire to make a meaningful impact.
