We are humbled and excited to share our recent $15M Series A funding round led by Matrix Partners! Weâre thankful to Matrix and our other investors in this round including Accel, Global Founders Capital, Susa Ventures, Y Combinator, Omega Venture Partners, and other individual investors. Weâd also like to thank all of our advisors, partners, and customers for their support.
One of our core values at Centaur Labs is âEvery Voice Counts.â This value is not only central to our company culture but also to our company history, our DNA. Our approach is based on Erik's PhD research at MITâs Center for Collective Intelligence. The idea is that multiple opinions combined intelligently are going to be more accurate than any single opinion alone. Applying this theory to medicine and AI, weâre leveraging a network of medical experts and performance assessments to label training data. Our mission is to annotate the worldâs medical data accurately, so that medical AI can make the impact itâs destined to. When we first started about 2 years ago, we were collecting ~160,000 opinions per week. Today, weâre at 1 million!
Our Series A funding enables us to continue our work by growing our team (engineering, data science, marketing, and sales) and continuing to invest in our network of medical experts.Â
Weâre thrilled to continue on our journey to build a global network of people and machines that are trusted based on their performance to solve medical problems.
