Our Story

With the latest advancements in natural language processing, we are at a unique point in history (of humankind) where we can computationally analyze our knowledge and accelerate the process of innovation.

Our platform brings together ML practitioners, experts, researchers, and more who are tired of searching, and want to start building!

Our History

2018

Our humble community started to stay on top of the mountains of ML papers. We’d nerd out every other week (in-person!) talking about interesting ML papers we’d had come across. The mailing list grew to 400 people by the end of the year.

2019

We incorporated “aggregate intellect” with the ultimate goal of “automating scientific discovery”. Based on the demand of our community, we created lots of educational packages, then started shifted towards how we could enable the applied side of ML.

2020

Welp, 2020! Several months ahead of the Pandemic lockdowns, we shifted all our in-person events to online so we could reach more people. Little did we know it would be necessity! We thought more deeply about scale, the industry impact of ML, and R&D in general. We capped off the year with a small fundraising round raised through our community.

2021

We added more team members this year, and significantly scaled out our R&D. We onboarded a COO + merged with NYAI.co, doubling our community size. We gained some traction running crowdsourcing competitions for rapid product development for startups, and used those engagements to build our V1 of our core product.

2022

We used the insights from our rigorous experiments & design sprints in 2021 to clarify our product vision. We will be gearing up for an alpha release in March, and will close a lead investor in April for our seed raise. If you’re an investor that wants to learn more, reach out to [email protected] 🙂
