It seems like everyone and their dog wants to solve this problem; why is it going to be you?

  YC Magic?

    YC definitely helps in giving us a lot of credibility when talking to customers especially enterprises. We have also been learning a ton about sales during the last couple of months - for a couple of engineer / data scientist it has been a humbling experience. Other than that there is not really any magic here!

  Haha, there’s no magic and it’s difficult to say with any certainty that we’re going to make it. When we started out, we were just scratching our own itch. The AI community is amazingly open and fast paced. May be because of that, the tooling around it isn’t as mature as for, say, software development. More companies, IMHO, tend to be focused on building the next big thing _with_ AI, rather than the next big thing _for_ AI. With the increasing popularity of the space and the relative infancy of the state of tooling, we believe now might be a good time to tackle this problem. That said, it’s hard to say how things are going to turn out. This is my first startup after working in the corporate for 6 years and it’s been amazing so far. Learning a lot, and excited for what’s ahead! :)
