The insight underneath it: the data companies generate day to day — collaboration, communication, building — is some of the most valuable training data in the world, and the next generation of model progress depends on real, proprietary data grounded in how actual businesses operate. The client is a primary source of it, partnering directly with the frontier AI labs building what comes next. It scaled from $0 to a multi-million-dollar run rate in a matter of months and recently raised.
