SSAIS: Survey of Startups on Artificial Intelligence Software

Project Overview

Before venturing into the world of entrepreneurship, like publishing a research paper, it is crucial to conduct a thorough survey of related companies, examining their products, market, and business models to understand the current state and locate points of differentiation and innovation. SSAIS, which stands for Survey of Startups on Artificial Intelligence Software, serves as a comprehensive repository focusing on AI software startups. This project showcases several core features:

• Continuous Updates: Regularly adding new AI startups to maintain a fresh perspective on the industry.
• Multi-layered Scope: Covering a wide range, from AI infrastructure to application areas, marked by a “!” for open-source companies.
• Technical Perspective: Offers insights from a technical viewpoint, categorizing AI startups and providing inspiration for AI entrepreneurs.
• International Coverage: Encompasses companies across China, the USA, Israel, and more, with "#" indicating an Israeli open-source company.
• Commercial Insight: Provides the latest funding amounts for AI startups, derived from venture capital databases, although it may not always be accurate. For example, Scale.ai: $155M means that Scale.ai's latest funding round brought in 155 million dollars.
