Company mission
To enable every organization in the world to adopt AI securely.
Our take
As companies leverage more AI technology in their operations, so too do malicious actors, increasing the need for rigid defences while allowing data scientists to work freely. Plenty of companies (like Sentinel One and Dataminr) have moved into the AI defence space.
Robust Intelligence’s platform helps companies secure their deployment of AI and Machine Learning models. The company offers two separate tools: one which performs stress tests on AI algorithms in search of potential weak spots, and another which acts similarly to a firewall by scanning for and heading off corrupted data.
Launched in 2019, Robust Intelligence is a new entrant, but already has enterprises like PayPal and NTT Data signed up. The work of co-founder Yaron Singer, a tenured Harvard professor, may give the company an edge. Singer built the platform with the help of former students, after spending years researching AI security mechanisms and creating new algorithms to detect bad data, effectively enough that the government agency DARPA helped fund his work.
