[Synthefy @synthefyinc]

We are announcing our $6.5M seed round led by @Wing_VC, with @haystackvc, @samsungnext, Canonical @ai, @LightscapeVC, and angels from OpenAI, Microsoft, and Meta.

We started Synthefy around a simple observation: most data that runs the economy is not text. It is transactions, sensor readings, trades, inventory, customer records, and time series.

Yet every prediction problem built on that data, from forecasting and fraud detection to pricing and predictive maintenance, still requires a bespoke pipeline and months of data and ML work.

We are building foundation models for structured data to change that.

Our first model, Nori, puts predictive capability into its pretrained weights, so customers do not need to train and maintain a separate model for every dataset and use case.

Our mission is to give customers predictive answers from their structured data that they cannot get from today’s tooling, 100× faster and at one-tenth the cost of bespoke ML.
We are grateful to our team, early users, and investors for believing in our mission.

[Odyssey @odysseyml]

We’ve raised a $310M Series B to accelerate world models!

We believe AI that can understand and simulate the world will be one of the most important technologies of our time.

We're excited to partner with Natural Capital, Amazon, GV, AMD, IQT, and others to bring this to life.

Check out what @synthefyinc is up to!

[Synthefy @synthefyinc]

Today we're releasing Synthefy Nori: a tabular foundation model for structured data.

→ Ranks #1 on aggregate across 96 datasets, ahead of TabPFN-3
> Beats tuned XGBoost & LightGBM on ~80% benchmark datasets, with zero training or tuning
→ 6M parameters, ~1/10 the size of its nearest peers
→ Fully open source: weights, inference, training code

Pass your labeled rows as context, get predictions back in seconds. No training. No tuning.

Built for the predictions businesses run on (demand planning, risk, pricing, churn, conversion)

Details to full release below. 👇
