Our take
Data that is required to solve the world’s most glaring problems is unable to be shared easily. With the mission to make this data intractable, Bitfount has developed a data science platform that removes any barriers to collaboration without compromising on data privacy and quality.
This federated analytics and machine-learning platform is well equipped to successfully enable users to share, access and collaborate on datasets without disclosing any sensitive data given the pedigree of its founding team. One founder’s company VocalIQ was acquired by Apple, where he then served as Chief Architect for Siri Understanding, whilst the other served as CPTO for DueDil.
New seed funding, led by Ahren and Speedinvest, represents the growing demand for machine learning and analytics in every industry and, therefore, the inevitable growth. This capital will be used to compute product development and scaling operations
