Total funding: $101 million<\/p>\n

What it does:<\/p>\n

Founded in 2020 by former Novartis executive Bianca Anghelina, Aily Labs builds an AI-powered “decision intelligence” platform designed to help Fortune 500 companies make decisions by consolidating data.<\/p>\n

“I experienced firsthand how decisions are slowed down because of siloed data,” Anghelina said. Traditional corporate decision-making is often delayed by “processes that take weeks or months” and “data owned by different functions” without “one source of truth,” she said.<\/p>\n

Aily’s “AI brain” aims to tackle these challenges by combining off-the-shelf and proprietary large language models, with data, to surface insights and recommendations “in a matter of minutes rather than weeks,” she said.<\/p>\n

Unlike typical consulting firms<\/a>, Aily isn’t focused on one-off projects, but on embedding “an always-on AI brain” into a company’s operations, she said.<\/p>\n

Why it’s good:<\/p>\n

“Everyone’s capturing information, but the question is: how are we actually using it to drive better decisions and efficiency?” Pegah Ebrahimi, the cofounder and managing partner at FPV Ventures, which led Aily’s latest $80 million funding round, told Business Insider.<\/p>\n

Aily is like an “executive partner that surfaces the top insights and risks relevant to your specific role \u2014 whether you’re head of supply chain in Brazil or head of sales for North America,” he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Total funding: $101 million What it does: Founded in 2020 by former Novartis executive Bianca Anghelina, Aily Labs…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":273572,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[256,158886,254,255,64,63,111815,1548,438,52346,112434,10347,158887,5592,15624,37476,93292,105,158888,6624],"class_list":["post-273571","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-ai","tag-ai-powered-consulting-startup","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificialintelligence","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-big-four","tag-business-insider","tag-company","tag-datum","tag-handful","tag-investor","tag-mbb","tag-other","tag-player","tag-slice","tag-tech-startup","tag-technology","tag-well-decision","tag-work"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=273571"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273571\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/273572"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=273571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=273571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=273571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
