We're thrilled to announce that we've raised a $2M seed round, led by Four Rivers Group. This funding will be pivotal in our quest to simplify and demystify the complex world of machine learning and AI. It will enable us to accelerate our product development, expand our team, and, most importantly, deliver more value to data scientists, business decision-makers, and everyday users who are seeking more transparent and understandable AI solutions.
The inception of SOTAI was driven by a clear and pressing need: the need for interpretable and explainable AI. As machine learning models continue to make their way into critical sectors like healthcare, finance, and law, the "black box" nature of these models has become increasingly problematic. That's why we built SOTAI—a platform that prioritizes not just predictive accuracy but also transparency, control, and understandability.
Our technology uses calibrated modeling to bring unparalleled transparency and control to machine learning. With SOTAI, you get models that not only perform exceptionally well but are also interpretable thanks to our unique approach that incorporates feature calibration, shape constraints, and supporting analysis tooling. This makes SOTAI an ideal choice for those looking to balance performance with interpretability and explainability.
We owe a huge debt of gratitude to our early adopters who believed in our vision and to our investors at Four Rivers Group who have provided not just capital but invaluable guidance and support. We're also grateful to the wider community—everyone who has engaged with our blog posts, tried out our product, and provided feedback. Your insights are helping us build something truly special.
If you haven't tried SOTAI yet, now is the perfect time to see just how easy and powerful machine learning can be when it's transparent. We're on a mission to make artificial intelligence transparent and accessible to all, and this funding round marks just the beginning. We've got an exciting roadmap ahead, filled with new features and capabilities, and we can't wait to share what's next.
