EVEN THE LONGEST JOURNEY STARTS WITH ONE STEP

We believe startups will change the world! We help make it happen through cutting-edge AI.

Data Science

Cutting-edge AI for Startups.

Making the right decisions
requires the right insight,
based on facts, not just gut
feelings.

You often possess more data than you
think, but without the right tools, it is
elusive and not very useful. However, it
is possible to extract meaning,
patterns, and connections from this
data. This is data-based insight and
lets you make far better and informed
decisions.

It comes down to simplifying business,
from sales and marketing to finance
and accounting. Our Data Scientists
collect, interpret, and analyze data,
presented in visual reports. You’ll make
better decisions, but you could also
uncover new business opportunities.

We can help your AI-projects succeed, and guide you from idea to success.

What is the AI lab?

At AI Lab we work exclusively with startups, providing a unique opportunity for exploring their AI initiatives. The AI Lab is where innovation happens and is a source for fulfilling work for ambitious data scientists, who utilize our competence- and resource pool for seamless scaling up and down in any AI-related field. The lab adheres fully to our mindset of 3P – People, Planet & Profit.

Who does the AI Lab work with?

The AI Lab only works with startups, and the few we select need to satisfy three criteria: An exciting AI challenge, address at least one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals and have the potential to go 10x. A Due Diligence will be performed by experienced Amesto CXOs/investors/entrepreneurs.

How does it work?

After screening and Due Diligence, we will sign a contract. Typically the process can be outlined in these steps: Screening - due diligence - sign a contract and define scope - roadmap - development - production - exit and sale of shares. For selected startups we offer up to 40% sweat equity.

We love to work with startups

How do we contribute?

Amesto NextBridge contributes a whole slew of benefits for startups. Such as experienced, curious, and likeable data scientists, and an innovative and startup-friendly agreement.

We can also take a board membership, if desired by the startup. In addition, we have an international investor network, and sport some real marketing muscles.

We are former founders, investors, and board members, and we really like startups!

Some examples of our AI Lab cases:

Sports Computing

This startup wants to get youngsters up from the couch and on to the football pitch. This is done by making it fun and easy to shoot free kicks, getting all your shots analyzed by computer vision and physics models, using nothing but the camera on your own smart phone. Combined with gamification and bio mechanics, it’s the perfect tool for ambitious football youngsters as well as a fun toy for the not-so-ambitious. This is a worlds first, and has attracted several football pros and coaches. The valuation of the company is 8x from when we started our cooperation. The solution addresses UN SDG #3.

Bee futures

Bee futures aims to target bee mortality using deeptech to design a new generation of beehives. We developed a computer vision based solution that decodes how bees communicate the location of food sources to each other. As the bees communicate the location we translate that over to a map, showing where all the bees from all the bee hives found food. It turns out many of the bee hives are wrongly located. This kind of analysis using machine learning has never been done before. The solution addresses 8 UN SDG’s and won the SAS Nordic Sustainability Hackathon 2020.

Shineup

PropTech startup Shineup looks to eliminate wasted time, money and confusion in refurbishing of rental flats for the professional market. Automating the many parameters of property refurbishing is a tall order, but we believe it can be done, and that machine learning is a large part of the solution. The solution addresses several UN SDG’s

BlankIT

GDPR is a challenge for many organizations, an finding and masking sensitive information in the enormous amounts of documents is almost insurmountable. Utilizing Natural Language Processing we have helped make a solution that does this automatically, freeing up a lot of time for any GDPR professional. The solution addresses UN SDG #9.

Sustainability you say?

Sustainability and profitability are viewed as two sides of the same coin to us, and means doing business with our head and our heart. We practice a triple bottom line that we call People, Planet and Profit, to drive economic, social, and environmental performance. And working with AI and startups is also one way we strive to meet the UN sustainability goals.

Amesto NextBridge manager Lars Rinnan is proud to be measured on more than just the bottom line. Hear his thoughts on the business world in 2029.
