AI Squared tackles this challenge head-on by streamlining the integration of AI into existing workflows. Their platform acts as a bridge, allowing data science teams to seamlessly connect AI models and data sources directly to business applications, regardless of the specific software used.

The AI Squared team boasts a deep understanding of the data science landscape. Led by Benjamin Harvey, Ph.D., who brings over a decade of experience working in the National Security Agency and Databricks’ data science team, AI Squared tackles a critical hurdle for businesses – implementation.
Impressive Results and Strategic Growth
AI Squared estimates their platform reduces the time to integrate data and AI into workflows from months to minutes and significantly lowers implementation costs. This translates to a substantial return on investment for businesses.
The company’s impressive results have attracted prominent figures to their board of directors. Allan Jean-Baptiste, co-founder and General Partner at Ansa Capital, emphasizes the vast potential of AI Squared’s solution: “With new AI models emerging constantly, organizations risk falling behind.
