About Novendor
We built Novendor after watching critical operations run on disconnected tools.
We saw teams managing real risk across spreadsheets, SaaS apps, manual handoffs, and unclear ownership. Novendor helps replace that fragmentation with controlled execution systems companies can operate and trust.
Based in South Florida.
Founders
Founded by operators who have lived the problem.
Novendor was started by Paul Malmquist and Richard de Oliveira to help companies bring AI into real operating work without losing control of the data, approvals, and decisions behind it.
Co-founder
Paul Malmquist
Paul brings enterprise data, analytics, and operating-system experience across real estate private equity, professional services, reporting, automation, and AI-enabled execution. His work focuses on turning fragmented systems into governed workflows, trusted data layers, and decision surfaces operators can actually use.
Co-founder
Richard de Oliveira
Richard brings two decades of credit risk and analytics leadership across private credit and consumer lending, running origination, policy, scorecards, and portfolio reporting at scale. He turns lending policy into systems operators can run: clear states, documented rules, and decisions tied back to the data behind them. His focus at Novendor is making sure AI adoption stays grounded in real workflows, clear ownership, and measurable business value.
