Jonas Andrulis is the Founder & CEO Aleph Alpha, a startup that provides enterprise software solutions backed with their own large language models and multimodal models. The startup currently focuses on catering to “critical enterprises” such as law firms, healthcare providers, and financial institutions, which require dependable and precise information. These organizations are unlikely to opt for solutions like ChatGPT and other large language models notorious for inaccuracies and lack of domain-specific information. In contrast, Aleph Alpha offers a more reliable solution by providing sources and citations for its responses, making it a preferred choice for businesses that prioritize accuracy and trustworthiness.
