Netradyne, an industry leader in artificial intelligence (AI) and edge computing focusing on driver and fleet safety, has been named on this year's Forbes AI 50 list 2022 for North America. Produced in partnership with Sequoia Capital, this list recognizes the standout privately held companies in North America that are making the most interesting and impactful uses of AI. Forbes editorial team acknowledged that AI technology is driving advancements in every industry but that it can be difficult to identify which companies are utilizing such technology in transformative and measurable ways. The Forbes AI 50 list, now in its fourth edition, identifies North America's privately held companies at the forefront of the field for whom AI is at the heart of their products and services. In selecting honorees for this year's list, Forbes' 12-judge panel of experts in artificial intelligence from the fields of academia, technology, and venture capital evaluated hundreds of submissions, handpicking the top 50 most compelling companies.

Verge Genomics is taking a novel approach to speed drug discovery for devastating neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's and ALS. Rather than spending exhaustive time with animal testing, the San Francisco-based company goes straight to the source. "To succeed in humans, you need to start with humans," says CEO Alice Zhang, whose drug discovery combines artificial intelligence with human genomics. Animal testing can be successful in predicting success for some drugs, but when it comes to neurodegenerative diseases, human brains are far more complex. To keep human patients at the center of the drug discovery process, Zhang's company has built one of the largest databases of brain tissue sequences in the world, with tissue from more than 1,000 human brains.

Launched in Q1 2019, the company is first to harness advanced deep learning for network threat protection and is proven to be greater than 99.5% effective in actual customer deployments in identifying attacks.

Artificial intelligence technology is driving advancements in every industry, but there's so much hype that it can be hard to pinpoint which businesses are really using it in transformative ways. Is AI at the heart of what your company does, versus the driver of an auxiliary business or way to improve one of your existing products? We want to hear from you. Nominations are now open for the inaugural Forbes AI list, which seeks to highlight private companies that are applying artificial intelligence to solve problems in innovative ways. Forbes, in partnership with Meritech Capital, will evaluate hundreds of companies based on metrics like revenue, growth, and valuation, with a panel of experts weighing in on how innovative and mission-critical each company's use of AI is (versus buzzwords thrown onto a slide-deck).
