Advances in deep learning, especially around power and flexibility, are enabling superhuman performance across a wide range of categories. Driving this phenomenon is a fundamentally different approach: Instead of solving problems with custom code, next generation neural network architectures will use data to search a wide solution space.
Still, most of the world is running on old code and have yet to incorporate machine learning and AI into their businesses. From manufacturing and logistics to farming, design, and even the practice of software engineering itself, nothing is off limits when it comes to deep learning and AI. At Amplify, we believe only the deepest technical minds are capable of further advancing this shift and applying it to ambitious new markets. We are excited to be your champion through this transformation.
Technology has evolved in cycles — from mainframes to PCs to mobile and cloud — and today we’re at the precipice of another massive shift. We’re leaving the era that gave us cloud computing, mobile devices, big data, and DevOps. We’re entering one defined by ubiquitous computing driven by machine learning and artificial intelligence, distributed systems, and wholly new programming and security paradigms.
We back technical founders because we believe in the power of product insight born from personal experience, the unique qualifications of technologists as company builders, and the entrepreneurial instincts of those with deep empathy for their end-users. We partner with open source project creators, professors, computer science and AI researchers, and practicing engineers who have bold visions for what comes next.
Rather than trying to be all things to all entrepreneurs, Amplify is hyper focused on being the best-in-class platform to support today’s generation of technical founders. We are investors for founders applying computer science and machine intelligence to enterprise invention. Having Amplify on your team means you’re getting a very specific, deep level of support. We lead Seed and Series A rounds, and we leverage our expertise in machine learning, AI, developer tools, infrastructure, data science, distributed systems, and robotics to help bring ground-breaking technical insights to the enterprise.
