Top Tech Startups to Work For in 2024

Distribution is one of the most important parts of the world economy –– without it, goods would never flow from manufacturers to consumers. Last year, North American distributors alone did over $6 trillion in revenue. Even so, the technology that exists to support distributors is, in a word, stagnated. How can we bring better technology to one of the world's most important industries? Product Our product is an automated enterprise resource planner extension (ERP) for distributors. Today, ERP systems function as the core operational infrastructure of most distributors. Every function that a distributor assumes begins and ends in their ERP––from purchasing to inventory management, from sales to accounting. The ERP’s centrality to each business process is a blessing and a curse. Having everything in one spot simplifies workflows, but it also means that inefficiencies multiply across millions or even billions of dollars of transactions. Our product exists to give people the best of both worlds. Recurrency is the world's first enterprise optimization system (EOS), a machine learning application that integrates with legacy ERPs like SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, or Epicor, to provide the user with recommendations on how to better buy, manage, price, and sell their inventory, all without breaking the single-source-of-truth. Our customers are wholesalers and distributors, ranging from family-owned companies to the Fortune 500.

We create software that helps coaches win, athletes look like pros, and sports recruiters find more talent. Teams upload their game film to our site, study it, and "break it down" by adding text notes, ink telestrations, and tagged metadata. Athletes can study the video on their mobile devices throughout the week to prepare for their next game. If an athlete notices a great play, he or she can highlight it to appear on a public profile for fans, parents, and recruiters to see. Recruiters have access to thousands of games, highlights, player profiles, and academic information.

Phaidra’s mission is to enable industry practitioners (i.e. the domain experts) to develop their own AI solutions. We believe that AI is a powerful technology with countless applications. However, it is also an exclusive technology — the benefits of AI are currently locked to the few companies with the resources and AI / software expertise to commercialize it. We seek to broaden access to AI by creating no-code software that hides the complexity of applying AI from the domain experts. We focus on the industrial sector (e.x. manufacturing, logistics, energy, etc.) because it is data-rich with abundant AI applications and room for optimization. It is also an area that our founding team is deeply familiar with, having reduced Google's data center cooling energy consumption by 40% while working at DeepMind.
