AI Squared raises $6M to help integrate AI into existing apps – TechCrunch

Integration platform AI Squared announced today the closing of a $6 million seed round led by NEA with participation from Ridgeline Partners. Launched in 2021, AI Squared helps companies adopt artificial intelligence by using a low-code platform to integrate it into existing applications in a timely and straightforward manner. Its founder, Benjamin Harvey, was inspired to start the company after a decade at the U.S. National Security Agency, where he saw how it and other organizations struggled to adopt artificial intelligence into existing applications. The struggle came from what's known as the last-mile challenge, which refers to the costly and time-consuming process of implementing an AI model within an application used on a day-to-day basis, like Netflix's program recommender system, he told TechCrunch. AI Squared helps solve the last-mile problem, assisting companies in adopting AI by using a low-code platform to integrate it into existing applications.
