Halluminate

AI today is capable of solving the world’s most complex math problems, writing the majority of our software, and soon automating research itself. The world of verifiable domains is being mastered at a stunning rate. However, these same systems still struggle to build realistic financial models, deliver client ready powerpoint presentations, or grasp the nuance of well-balanced strategic analyses. Generally intelligent AI coworkers across finance, consulting, insurance, operations, and other forms of knowledge work will transform our economy. But they haven’t arrived yet. The good news is that we have the recipe to build them. Halluminate is a data research lab building the benchmarks and RL environments needed to push the frontier of AI in knowledge work. Our first area of focus is financial services, but we are rapidly expanding to adjacent verticals. In the last 10 months we have: - Grown from $0 to a mid-eight-figure revenue run rate while remaining strongly profitable - Built and scaled RL environments with four of the five leading closed-source U.S. AI labs - Released Westworld Due Diligence, a leading frontier benchmark for realistic financial work - Built an interdisciplinary team of former founders, researchers, particle physicists, experts, and engineers from Meta, Scale AI, Capital One Labs, McKinsey, Goldman Sachs and more If that excites you, join us!
