An AI platform that helps companies utilize external data faster
The Oleum team is a group of former Bridgewater quants, building AI tools that help data users better understand and interact with external datasets. Trialing a single dataset currently takes months, and most firms spend millions each year doing this by hand. We automate the process of cleaning, structuring, and testing datasets, so customers can evaluate hundreds of sources at once and find valuable insights faster. Our long-term vision is to become the ubiquitous data infrastructure layer for all data-oriented businesses.
