These AI-assisted innovations are from startups that are five years old or less

The Googles and Microsofts of the world hardly have a monopoly on innovation. Indeed, a number of recent tech breakthroughs have been delivered from organizations that aren’t even five years old. Who says youth is wasted on the young?

Codeium

Duckbill
For providing a personal assistant that can help tackle everyday problems
Duckbill’s hybrid AI- and human-powered personal assistant tackles everyday “life admin” tasks.
