Company mission
To create a future where humans and AI work together to solve the world's most important problems.
Our take
Mind Foundry is looking to help channel the power of AI to help with high-stakes scenarios by tailor-designing AI applications. Part research lab, part AI solutions expert, the company is a spinout from Oxford University’s Machine Learning Research Group - and it’s making important headway in the field of AI and machine learning, too.
The Mind Foundry platform allows customers to swiftly develop AI-driven applications to help with forecasting, problem-solving, and data analysis. This tight focus on usability and tailored solutions is likely to prove crucial in the current moment, where AI has broken onto the scene, but for many potential beneficiaries remains somewhat mysterious and opaque.
Looking to the future, too, Mind Foundry is smart to be focusing on responsible AI applications. As enterprises get in on the AI game, ethical questions are arising more frequently. By placing an emphasis on responsible AI - for example, by favouring interpretable models over black box solutions - Mind Foundry applications allow top-tier clients to balance ethical responsibilities with the business benefits that AI can undoubtedly bring.
