“We are thrilled with the addition of Centerview Capital to our roster of prestigious investors,” said Gurjeet Singh, Ayasdi CEO. “Centerview’s experience in scaling and expanding innovative technology-driven businesses will help Ayasdi during our next phase of growth and penetration into more Fortune 1000 deployments.”

“Ayasdi’s products enable global enterprises to transform decision making,” said David Dorman, Partner at Centerview Capital Technology. “We are excited to partner with Ayasdi as they scale their work across industries ranging from Healthcare to Financial Services.”

“Ayasdi is leading the transformation of how businesses will utilize advanced analytics technologies to understand increasingly complex data assets,” said Abhishek Sud, Principal at Centerview Capital Technology. “Ayasdi represents a new breed of software that combines artificial intelligence with topological mathematics to deliver unparalleled business insight.”

Ayasdi Leads in Machine Intelligence Powered by Topological Data Analysis (TDA)

In its most recent fiscal year, Ayasdi extended its leadership position in the industry by enhancing the speed, usability and reach of its analytical solutions. Ayasdi pioneered the use of Topological Data Analysis (TDA), which applies the mathematical principles of shape to quickly identify meaningful patterns and values within complex datasets. TDA encompasses and enhances the broad set of statistical, geometric and machine learning algorithms used to analyze complex datasets today. Today’s hypothesis-driven, iterative approach to data analysis is time-consuming and relies upon specialized experts to ask the right questions and write code. By contrast, Ayasdi’s Machine Intelligence software employs a data-driven approach that thoroughly inspects the entire dataset, to find the most important patterns, values and anomalies. It accelerates the discovery process, and improves the quality of the analysis, empowering domain experts and data scientists to apply these insights to their business more efficiently and effectively.
