Explorium secures $19M funding to automate data science and machine learning-driven insights ZDNet

Machine learning is a powerful paradigm many organizations are utilizing to derive insights and add features to their applications, but using it requires skills, data, and effort. Explorium, a startup from Israel, has just announced $19 million of funding to lower the barrier on all of the above. The funding announced today comprises a seed round of $3.6 million led by Emerge with the participation of F2 Capital and a $15.5 million Series A led by Zeev Ventures with the involvement of the seed investors. Explorium was founded by Maor Shlomo, Or Tamir, and Omer Har, three Israeli tech entrepreneurs, who previously led large-scale data mining and optimization platforms for big data-based marketing leaders. "We are doing for machine learning data what search engines did for the web," said Explorium co-founder and CEO Maor Shlomo.
