Models are what they eat. But a large portion of training compute is wasted training on data that are already learned, irrelevant, or even harmful, leading to worse models that cost more to train and deploy.
At DatologyAI, we’ve built a state of the art data curation suite to automatically curate and optimize petabytes of data to create the best possible training data for your models. Training on curated data can dramatically reduce training time and cost (7-40x faster training depending on the use case), dramatically increase model performance as if you had trained on >10x more raw data without increasing the cost of training, and allow smaller models with fewer than half the parameters to outperform larger models despite using far less compute at inference time, substantially reducing the cost of deployment. For more details, check out our recent research on synthetic data scaling (BeyondWeb) and pretraining with domain-specific data (The Finetuner’s Fallacy).
We raised a total of $57.5M in two rounds, a Seed and Series A. Our investors include Felicis Ventures, Radical Ventures, Amplify Partners, Microsoft, Amazon, and AI visionaries like Geoff Hinton, Yann LeCun, Jeff Dean, and many others who deeply understand the importance and difficulty of identifying and optimizing the best possible training data for models. Our team has pioneered this frontier research area and has the deep expertise on both data research and data engineering necessary to solve this incredibly challenging problem and make data curation easy for anyone who wants to train their own model on their own data.
We’re hiring our first operations person in London to build our UK presence from the ground up! This is a founding role, so you’ll do a little bit of everything: office, people ops, recruiting, events, and whatever else the team needs.
You’ll work closely with our first London hire, who is building research and engineering, and with our People and Finance teams at HQ in San Mateo, CA. You’ll own how the UK runs, turning our plans into a real office, a compliant employer, and a place people are glad to come to!
£65,000 to £85,000 + Offers Equity
This is a position with Datology UK Limited, which controls the hiring and management of this position. Total compensation includes competitive salary, generous equity and benefits.
DatologyAI builds tools to automatically select the best data on which to train deep learning models. Our tools leverage cutting-edge research—much of which we perform ourselves—to identify redundant, noisy, or otherwise harmful data points. The algorithms that power our tools are modality-agnostic—they’re not limited to text or images—and don’t require labels, making them ideal for realizing the next generation of large deep learning models. Our products allow customers in nearly any vertical to train better models for cheaper.
