WE BELIEVE
AI SHOULD
WORK FOR
EVERYONE.

NovaMind was founded by engineers who got tired of AI being accessible only to teams with massive budgets and dedicated research labs. We built the tools we always wished existed.

"TO MAKE ENTERPRISE-GRADE AI INTELLIGENCE ACCESSIBLE TO EVERY TEAM ON EARTH — REGARDLESS OF SIZE OR BUDGET."

FROM IDEA
TO IMPACT

2022
FOUNDED IN A GARAGE

Three engineers — Elena, Marcus, and James — quit their Big Tech jobs and started building NovaMind in a San Francisco garage. Fueled by conviction that AI tooling was broken for 99% of companies.

2022
FIRST 100 CUSTOMERS

Launched private beta. Reached 100 paying customers in 6 weeks through developer communities. Zero marketing spend — pure word of mouth.

2023
$4M SEED ROUND

Closed oversubscribed seed round led by Horizon Ventures. Grew team to 15 engineers and launched the Automation Engine — our flagship product.

2023
SOC 2 CERTIFICATION

Achieved SOC 2 Type II certification and signed first enterprise contracts. Deployed NovaMind into Fortune 500 infrastructure for the first time.

2024
$24M SERIES A

Led by SequoiaAI Partners with participation from a16z and Insight Partners. Used to scale engineering to 52 people across 3 time zones and launch the Predictive Intelligence Engine.

2025
12,000 TEAMS. 18 COUNTRIES.

NovaMind now serves teams across finance, healthcare, e-commerce, and tech — processing over 2.4 billion API requests per month with 99.9% uptime.

WHAT WE
STAND FOR

01 — Principle
RADICAL TRANSPARENCY

We show our work. Every model decision is explainable. Every pricing change is communicated in advance. No hidden fees, no black boxes.

02 — Principle
OBSESSIVE RELIABILITY

Downtime is a broken promise. We engineer for 99.99% uptime and treat every incident as a personal failure. Reliability is non-negotiable.

03 — Principle
DEMOCRATIZE AI

Enterprise-grade intelligence shouldn't require enterprise-grade budgets. We price to make NovaMind accessible to teams of 2 and teams of 2,000.

04 — Principle
PRIVACY FIRST

Your data is yours. We never train on your private data without consent. Full GDPR and CCPA compliance is the floor, not the ceiling.

05 — Principle
SHIP, THEN ITERATE

We deploy weekly. Imperfect and live beats perfect and delayed. We listen hard, move fast, and treat feedback as a gift.

06 — Principle
RESPONSIBLE AI

We maintain an AI ethics board and publish annual transparency reports. We believe powerful AI demands proportional accountability.
