Oumi develops an open-source AI platform that streamlines the full lifecycle of foundation models, including data preparation, training, evaluation, and deployment of custom specialized models. Users can generate models from natural language prompts, with automation for evaluations, data curation, and fine-tuning that reduces development time from months to hours. The company raised $10M in seed funding and was co-founded by Manos Koukoumidis (ex-Google Cloud GenAI) and Oussama Elachqar (ex-Apple, Microsoft, Twitter). It is used by researchers at institutions including Stanford, MIT, and Oxford.
