Our Story

Nasim and Martin met in 2020 at Mila, one of the world's premier AI research institutes, working on decentralized network of message-passing AI agents to trace COVID-19 contacts with Yoshua Bengio.

As the technology matured, we continued conducting research and publishing papers. As we neared graduation, we realized that we could build a company that would enable the next generation of AI researchers to collaborate, learn, and solve complex problems together, using AI agents.
