Prior Knowledge

Prior Knowledge makes insight and predictions as easy as using a database, by building infer-structure – infrastructure for inference. Veritable, their predictive database, goes beyond traditional big data analytics by learning the deep structure of data and generating predictions that reflect all of these relationships.

The complex probabilistic models behind PK’s infer-structure grew out of many years of research at MIT. Prior Knowledge continues to advance the state-of-the-art in probabilistic inference in order to tackle the size and complexity of modern datasets, and to let regular developers exploit these advances.

Prior Knowledge is backed by Founders Fund and independent angel investors.
