A Word From The Founders
Our vision is to be the place where brands build trust in their machine learning models and data.
When we founded the company, we had a fifteen year head start on understanding the direction that data might bring Machine Learning and AI. Throughout the first two decades of the 21st century, we served some of the leading global technology brands who are data driven to their core, and helped pioneer new ways of doing things to achieve many significant objectives for their platforms.
For the coming decade, we believe we are once again in the early stages of the next major technological revolution. While many talk about the promise of AI, and it is an exciting promise, our focus is purely on improving the machine learning data and models that will determine whether and how AI reaches its true potential.
The 'early internet' celebrated its 35th birthday in 2020. Our Chairman played an important role in laying the foundations of the NSFNET along with a select group of Internet Pioneers. At Peroptyx, we are pioneering new ways of optimizing the data and models that are powering the next wave of technology driven progress and digital transformation.
We look forward to welcoming you on the journey.
