I'm thrilled to announce that we’ve raised $3.5M Seed led by Gradient Ventures, with the participation of Y Combinator, Ardent Venture Partners, Orange Collective, key executives from Snowflake, Group 1001, Superlinked, Frigade, and Kevin Moore.
Today, more than 400 exabytes of data are generated daily. Over 15 million data professionals are leveraging this data to guide their organizations toward their true north.
Coming from Snowflake, LinkedIn, and Meta, my co-founder and I have tight bonds with data teams, and seeing them calculate the right product features to build just based on data is nothing but astonishing.
However, for the last two decades, unstructured data has largely been left out of this equation. It's incredibly challenging to translate into something machines can use for quantitative analysis.
We, humans, process 74GB of data through our eyes and ears every day. We are naturally great unstructured data processors, but unfortunately, we don't scale.
But just recently, we've seen how multimodal LLM can understand the pain points from a 45-minute-long user journey video and sense the sadness from a phone call just by the tone. It is a perfect, unstructured data processor that can scale.
It is a truly Cambrian moment for the data community because now it's possible to do quantitative analysis on unstructured data!
This transformation may take many years because today's data tooling is so deadlocked into structured data.
We will not wait for the incumbents. We will build this future, and that's why we're building Roe AI, now.
This mission to Mars is going to be thrilling and bumpy, but I’m grateful not to be on this journey alone. Thanks to my co-founder Jason Wang, my family, mentors, friends and fellows at YC, Snowflake, LinkedIn, and UC Berkeley, and, of course, Roe AI’s early customers. You are our solar power
🖖 Live long and prosper!
