Everyone's buzzing about $6bn to xAI or $1bn to Scale AI, right? I picked out a few smaller niche industry projects that could spark ideas for your startup:
- $50M Poly AI is a voice AI for call centres which “resolves over 50% of calls”(OpenAI + own LLM)
- $15M Anterior AI provides AI-powered dental care
- $20M Orby AI corp agents for financial operations
- $50M SmarterDx is clinical AI audit of diagnosis vs revenue. Boosts sales ($0,8M annually per 100 patients)
- $50M Rad AI assists physicians/radiologists
- $35M Sixfold AI logistics for supply chain optimization
- $50M Legion is an AI automation for hourly employees
- $9M Hazy AI for synthetic data re-engineering (this could relate to my idea of Instant Surveys, don’t you think?)
- $225M Inflection AI builds personal assistants (Pi app)
- $35M Praktika AI avatars to learn English (1,2M users, ARR $20M)
- $30M Coactive AI structures the unstructured data for ML
- $27M Witness AI controls security and governance for enterprise AI
- $23M Orca AI stops ships from colliding
- $15M Nory AI manages restaurants
Inspiring list, but remember about 90% of startups that failed to rise money
