About the Company: Co-founded by Luke Kim and Phillip LeBlanc, Spice AI takes a developer-first approach to build intelligent apps. Its first release is an open-source project that enables developers to access machine learning tools in minutes instead of months. Using time-series data, Spice.ai lets developers create applications that learn and adapt using AI-powered recommendations. The platform lets developers improve those AI capabilities with fast local development cycles and modern CI/CD workflows. Spice.ai was built for developers first, using a portable runtime that operates as a container or microservice on any public cloud, on-premises, or edge hardware. Applications can make calls to Spice.ai using a simple HTTP API, allowing developers to use their favorite languages and frameworks.
