Essential AI’s mission is to deepen the partnership between humans and computers, unlocking collaborative capabilities that far exceed what could be achieved today. To reinvent how enterprises work, we are developing full-stack AI products that quickly learn to increase productivity by automating time-consuming and monotonous workflows. For instance, our technology will make data analysts 10X faster and give business users the tools to become independent data driven decision makers themselves. It will also identify the biggest risks and suggest improvements in organizations' supply chains. With human feedback and technical breakthroughs, our LLMs will empower users to solve progressively harder tasks and unlock critical skills, scaling the impact of organizations on society. We believe that building delightful end-user experiences requires innovating across the stack - from the UX all the way down to models that achieve the best user value per FLOP. We are based in SF and are building a world-class multi-disciplinary team of engineers, researchers, designers, and sales and product experts who are excited to solve hard real-world AI problems. We are excited to partner with March Capital and Thrive Capital, with participation from AMD, Franklin Venture Partners, Google, KB Investment, and NVIDIA.

We empower students with AI-enabled personalized learning tools that increase engagement and improve memory retention.

We are building a platform for developers to accelerate development and safe deployment of LLM applications to production. We help enterprises to deploy ML across more of their applications and to faster adopt LLMs, Agent Networks, RAG, and broader NLP technology. We do this as an inherent part of the SDLC and production tooling.

Teams use Nooks to work together throughout the day - our smart dialer automates the manual process of calling and our salesfloor facilitates realtime collaboration on calls. Nooks analyzes the team’s conversations to understand the winning playbooks, then helps replicate these across the team. Reps 3x their sales conversations using the Nooks dialer. It uses AI to accelerate the manual process of calling. Nooks automatically detects answering machines, leaves voicemails, and filters out bad numbers to save reps hours of repetitive tasks. Reps work together in Nooks throughout the day (avg ~3hrs/day)! They can listen to each others’ calls, give live advice, and strategize after calls. This dramatically reduces ramp times and improves feedback loops. Nooks operationalizes and standardizes winning playbooks across the team. AI insights help managers ID strategies to improve their playbooks. Going forward, Nooks automatically tracks how well the team is following these strategies.
