These AI-assisted innovations are from startups that are five years old or less

The Googles and Microsofts of the world hardly have a monopoly on innovation. Indeed, a number of recent tech breakthroughs have been delivered from organizations that aren’t even five years old. Who says youth is wasted on the young?

Codeium now counts Zillow and Dell as clients, and recently raised a $65 million Series B funding round.

Duckbill
For providing a personal assistant that can help tackle everyday problems
Duckbill’s hybrid AI- and human-powered personal assistant tackles everyday “life admin” tasks.
