WHO ARE WE?

At Brain.ai, we build computers that think. We invent new technologies and design metaphors that allow computers to become an extension of our minds instead of simply our hands. As we transition from the information age to the intelligence age, we bridge the existing world of software with emerging general intelligence in a natural and humane way.

As pioneers of the few-shot learning approach to NLP in 2016, we stand at the intersection of advancing the latest technology and design. Our investors include Laurene Powell Jobs, Goodwater Capital, Scott Cook and WTT Investment.
