Top Tech Startups in Earth in 2027

We built what the real estate industry has been missing: a complete ISA (Inside Sales Agent) platform that doesn't just organize leads—it closes them.

The D. E. Shaw group is trusted by investors across the world to manage their assets by seeking the optimal balance of risk and reward. While we’re known as a pioneer in quantitative investing, we also have considerable expertise in areas that involve fundamental analysis or portfolio manager discretion. We use a combination of quantitative and qualitative tools to uncover independent, hard-to-find sources of return across global public and private markets. Founded in 1988 over a small bookstore in downtown New York City, the D. E. Shaw group began with six employees and $28 million in capital and quickly became a pioneer in computational finance. In the early days of exposed pipes and extension cords, tripping on a cable could take out our whole trading system. Today, the firm has more than 2,500 people around the globe and an institutional-grade (and trip-proof) infrastructure, but we still value creativity, entrepreneurship, and the spirit of discovery. If you’re an intellectually adventurous person who loves to collaborate on challenging and rewarding projects, we encourage you to apply. Visit our Careers page at deshaw.com/careers to learn more.

Splitsense is building an AI agent that does conversion optimization the way a senior CRO specialist would, end to end and continuously. The problem we're solving is one every founder and growth team knows. You have analytics, heatmaps, session recordings and dashboards, but none of them tell you what to actually do. Turning that data into insight takes hours of digging. Turning insight into an experiment takes developer time most teams don't have. So most websites never get optimized at all, and the ones that do run a handful of tests a year instead of a steady stream. That's a hard problem because good CRO isn't one skill, it's a pipeline of them: reading funnels and spotting where users drop off, forming hypotheses worth testing, writing copy that converts, building variants without breaking the site, running the statistics honestly, and knowing what to test next. We're encoding that entire pipeline into autonomous agents. Splitsense crawls your site, learns your brand and audience, analyzes real visitor behavior through its own analytics and session replay, finds the leaks, then writes, launches and measures A/B tests on its own. Multi-armed bandits shift traffic to winners while tests run, so learning turns into revenue faster. The result: the kind of continuous experimentation program that used to require a CRO consultant, a copywriter, an analyst and an engineer, now available to a solo founder for the price of a SaaS subscription. We're a small, senior, fully remote team that ships fast and uses our own product on our own funnel every day. If you want your work to compound, everything we learn makes the agent smarter for every customer.
