Fiddler is the first company to help enterprises build and operationalize Trustable AI by unlocking the AI black box with the Fiddler Monitoring AI Engine. It has raised $32 million in a funding round led by Top VCs in Silicon Valley (Insight Partners, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Lux Capital, Amazon Alexa Fund, Bloomberg Beta, etc).
The startup’s founder and CEO, Krishna Gade, was previously an engineering manager at Facebook where he helped build tools that enabled Facebook developers to find bugs and troubleshoot machine-learning-related problems in the network’s News Feed. The tools were intended to better understand why News Feed’s algorithms were recommending particular posts and online ads, or why certain posts became viral.
