In September 2023, Patronus AI launched out of stealth with $3M in seed funding led by Lightspeed Venture Partners, with participation from Factorial Capital and angel investors including Amjad Masad and Gokul Rajaram.
Co-founders Anand Kannappan and Rebecca Qian met while studying computer science at the University of Chicago. Their subsequent work at Meta brought complementary research and applied perspectives to understanding where AI models fail.
Our founding team brought experience across AI research, alignment, and applied machine learning.
