Eventual

Building the AI data engine for any modality and scale

Y CombinatorWinter 2022ActiveB2BInfrastructureComputer Vision

What they do

Problem

AI teams struggle to efficiently process and query massive multimodal datasets because existing data platforms are built for tabular analytics rather than images, video, audio, and other complex data at scale.

Solution

Eventual builds Daft, an open-source AI data engine that enables intuitive querying and production-scale processing of multimodal data while coordinating external APIs and GPU clusters.

Who it's for

AI/ML developers and data teams at companies building foundation models and other large-scale AI applications.
