What DataSuite does

DataSuite provides a way to manage and collect multi-terabyte multi-media datasets, and train generative models (diffusion, gan, interactive video) models based on them. We make it trivial for non-technical builders to create their own networks by providing an instant way to collect with AI without worrying about data formats, unzipping power, caching, or data locality.

Dataset Management for AI Trainers

What is your company going to make? Please describe your product and what it does or will do.

We built a tool that manages multi-terabyte multimedia datasets and lets AI trainers collect data and train generative models like diffusion and GANs without wrestling with formats, caching, or infrastructure issues. Our product lets non-technical builders spin up their own custom networks quickly without needing to handle complex data wrangling or infrastructure details.

Where do you live now, and where would the company be based after YC?

We live in New York City and have a distributed, partly remote team. After YC, we'll keep the company based in NYC with remote flexibility.

Explain your decision regarding location.

New York offers access to AI trainers, ML talent, and legal AI customers. Being remote-friendly lets us hire engineers and builders across different locations for more flexibility.
