Startup Spotlight: Comet is building a GitHub-like management system for machine learning

Gideon Mendels has spent the past three years in machine learning research, studying at Columbia University, building hate speech detection software at Google, and developing chat analytics app Groupwize with his business partner, Nimrod Lahav. In those roles, Mendels observed a recurring problem. Mendels and Lahav set out to solve that problem. The result is Comet, a suite of tools that help machine learning teams manage their experiments and projects. Comet tracks code, facilitates team collaboration, and allows developers to glean insights from past work.
