WhyLabs is on a mission to build the interface between humans and AI applications
As teams across industries adopt AI, WhyLabs enables them to operate with certainty by providing model monitoring, preventing costly model failures, and facilitating cross-functional collaboration. Incubated at the Allen Institute for AI, WhyLabs is a privately-held, venture-funded company based in Seattle.
The company was founded by Amazon Machine Learning alums Alessya Visnjic, Sam Gracie, and Andy Dang, together with Maria Karaivanova, former Cloudflare executive and principal at Madrona Venture Group. Use WhyLabs to supercharge your AI teams!
