About Us

We believe users want a simple and secure system that aggregates the best of AI (i.e., public and private) and provides them helpful tools to enable their productivity. We want to empower users and organizations to control their AI footprint and that control must be independent of the AI itself.

We are the backplane for all AI models, and while there are a few models now, we believe those models will soon be as unique and ubiquitous as snowflakes in a blizzard.

We empower our users to control and benefit from these models through visual and programmable interfaces. We enable model training, processing. aggregation, logging, analytics, security, compliance, guides, prompts, recommendations, reporting, and quality assurance.
