Data IntelligenceB2B SaaS

Ploid is an AI-powered people intelligence platform that helps organizations find, understand, and connect with the right people through real-time, AI-driven search. Unlike traditional data providers that rely on static databases and limited professional profiles, Ploid continuously indexes and enriches information from across the public web to build a dynamic understanding of more than 2 billion people. By combining large-scale data collection with advanced AI reasoning, Ploid enables sales, recruiting, investment, and business development teams to discover ideal prospects, uncover meaningful insights, and personalize outreach in seconds. This is a burning problem because today's teams waste countless hours researching fragmented, outdated information across multiple tools, while existing solutions often miss critical context and fail to keep pace with how quickly people and companies change. As AI becomes central to business workflows, organizations need fresh, comprehensive, and intelligent people data that goes beyond contact information to help them make faster, more informed decisions, build stronger relationships, and unlock new opportunities.

Participant attrition quietly drains millions of dollars from every clinical trial budget and burns thousands of hours of operational time, all while slowing down every therapy waiting to reach patients. adaptivePRO is an AI-integrated operational intelligence platform for clinical trial sponsors that predicts participant attrition while retention is still possible. The result: millions in recoverable costs, faster paths to market, and participants who don't fall through the cracks.

Craze runs AI interviews with verified college students. A brand asks a question and gets back real conversations with its exact customers in 1-2 hours instead of a two month research study. Students are paid for every answer, so they show up and tell the truth. Celsius runs live studies on Craze today. Every interview grows a proprietary dataset of real human conversation, the data AI labs want most and cannot scrape. We sell market research now, license training data next, then train models on it that predict consumer behavior. Craze is the intelligence layer for human behavior.

AgTech

Luzardo is the AI-enabled data layer for the livestock industry, turning smartphone photos into verified cattle weight data that unlocks financing, trade, and insurance. Farmers photograph cattle where they stand and get a weight estimate in seconds, with no scale, chute, or internet connection. Our models run on-device at 5% error in the breeds we have data on, so every animal can be weighed monthly instead of once or twice in its life. Each capture writes to a digital passport that turns an undocumented animal into a verified, bankable asset, unlocking financing, insurance, and export markets. We reach farmers through cattle associations rather than one farm at a time, which puts hundreds or thousands of producers behind a single relationship.
