About us

Who is AI Fund? We are a team of AI pioneers, proven entrepreneurs, seasoned operators, and venture capitalists that collaborates with leading entrepreneurs to solve big challenges using artificial intelligence. Founded in 2017 by Dr. Andrew Ng, AI Fund is backed with $176 million in capital by some of the leading VC firms and investors, including NEA, Sequoia, and Greylock. How Are We Different? We work with entrepreneurs during their startup’s most critical and risky phase, from 0 to 1. At the earliest stages, your company strategy is still being formed, and you’re still on the path to demonstrating your idea’s full potential – this is a reality we understand. This is the period when decisions on product strategy, market fit, and team are most critical, moving fast and fixing parts of your business when you have limited resources is a challenge. We believe the best way to help entrepreneurs is by providing our time, expertise, and resources to help flesh out these key strategic decisions. Making the right decisions at the right time can often make the difference. We are here to improve these dynamics, at a time when the help matters the most. Why Work With AI Fund? Getting a startup from idea to Series A funding is not easy. We’ve been there and understand the challenges you must overcome. Whether you desire limited help and just want access to our unique ecosystems of AI experts and entrepreneurs or you would like our full support, we are interested in the opportunity to help in your success. We are flexible in how we work with companies, but ultimately, we are here to maximize your chance of success and accelerate getting your company to market. We provide the capital, expertise, and resources to accelerate the work required to minimize risks in your startup, help you rise above the noise, and make your company more attractive to new investors.

    Physician burnout is a major issue for our healthcare systems. David Norris and the Affineon Health team are leveraging AI to combat this. Healthcare providers are drowning in administrative tasks. Affineon Health is alleviating the burden, giving providers several hours a week to spend with their patients instead of their inboxes.

    AI for good in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene: Don Mathis and the Skyfire | AI team have been flying their drones on EMS missions, helping CVS deliver medication to critically ill patients across storm ravaged areas of North Carolina. With roads, bridges, and even whole communities wiped off the map by the floodwaters, their drones are able to provide aerial support for areas that are otherwise inaccessible. Our thoughts are with all those impacted by the devastating storm and we are heartened to see the Skyfire | AI team actively saving lives.

    WHAT AN UNBELIEVABLE CATASTROPHE. The devastation is shocking. We have had the responsibility – and the deep honor – to be “boots on the ground” in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene’s destruction, where we are providing immediate #drone aerial support. What we have seen has been heartbreaking. 🔹 Our #UAS deployments have been to remote, isolated areas that are in some cases entirely cut off from access to the outside world. 🔹 Our work has provided emergency responders with a bird's-eye view of the damage, helping prioritize their efforts and identify areas of critical need. 🔹 Nothing is better than a drone to provide this kind of real-time information, at scale across a wide area, and in some cases to make critical and life-saving interventions. I have the enormous fortune to be colleagues with an incredibly dedicated and passionate group of people at Skyfire | AI, folks who do this in significant part to make a difference. This week, we’ve had that opportunity, and then some. Heartfelt thanks to our deployed personnel on the ground and in the air, and to the hard-working teams that support them. The mission most definitely continues.... #dronesforgood And a deep thank you to NBC News and Sam Brock for telling stories about this amazing work and life saving technology. MOST IMPORTANTLY: our thoughts remain with all those affected by this storm, and to the first responders putting their lives on the line during the ongoing recovery efforts. #HurricaneHelene #DroneResponse #DisasterRelief #PublicSafety #Drones #FEMA #Rescue #FirstResponders #disasterresponse #emergencyresponse #uas #medicaldelivery #dronedelivery
