Top Tech Startups in United States in 2024

Unriddle helps researchers make breakthrough discoveries faster. We are a single platform to find, understand and produce research papers. In just one year, we’ve grown to $1M ARR and 1.5M users. We’re growing 20% month-over-month and our users include teams at Stanford, GSK and Johns Hopkins. We use language models to surface and breakdown relevant information, suggest novel connections between papers and automate rote research tasks. This free’s up headspace for higher reasoning and insight - essentially expanding the researcher’s mental RAM and letting them load larger problems into memory. We’re starting with software to read, write and find papers, but our ultimate goal is to build the researcher of the future: a human-AI hybrid that’s an order of magnitude more effective than any single researcher. And we just closed a $2.4M seed round with participation from Y Combinator, Pioneer Fund, Tom Preston-Werner (co-founder of Github) and Steve Huffman (co-founder and CEO of Reddit).

Here at Parakeet Health, we're not big fans of elevator music and "your call is very important to us, please continue holding 73 more minutes". So we're on a mission to improve the patient experience at your doctor’s office by leveraging AI. To start, we're automating repetitive phone tasks like appointment scheduling, billing, and general inquiries to give the staff much-needed time to take care of patients. We believe in 5 years, every doctor's office will have an AI voice agent picking up the phone — resolving your issue immediately instead of putting you on hold. We are a team of seasoned healthcare industry veterans (One Medical IPO, Doximity IPO, Epocrates IPO) and technologists (Twitter, Rippling, Microsoft, Primer AI) who are committed to applying gen AI to enable more affordable, effective, and enjoyable care through technology. We have paying clients and a robust pipeline of clients that we plan to onboard this year. We are venture-backed by top-tier VCs including Canvas Ventures, CoFound Partners, and Storyhouse Ventures as well as angels including the founder of One Medical/Galileo, former CTO of Twitter, and co-founder of Tend Dental.

Our goal at P-1 AI is to develop an artificial general engineering intelligence—and eventually superintelligence—that can help the human species design physical systems more efficiently and at unprecedented levels of complexity. Going beyond existing foundation models, our autonomous AI agent learns from synthetic training data and real-world feedback and reasons over an internal multi-physics representation of a product design that encompasses both geometry and function. We are a world-class team of AI researchers, engineers, and top industry executives backed by some of the best investors in Silicon Valley and beyond.

Moondance Labs is responsible for building Tanssi. Tanssi is a ContainerChain protocol that is built to make it dramatically easier for developers to launch AppChains. Tanssi is a parachain on Polkadot that is designed to provide the infrastructure services necessary for developers to launch Appchains with as little friction as possible. Currently the barriers of entry for developers to launch appchains is still too high - teams take on a significant amount of infrastructure responsibility through having to bootstrap a validator set, launching the chain and also dealing with all the complementary integrations that are necessary (bridges, wallets, block explorers, indexers, oracles, etc.). Tanssi aims to remove all the infrastructure complexity associated with launching appchains so that developers can focus their entire time on building their applications. By leveraging Polkadot's shared security architecture, teams will be able to launch appchains with the ease of a smart contract deployment. Tanssi ContainerChains will also benefit from decentralization & on-chain block production and data storage.
