It's hard to believe it's been a whole year since we embarked on this incredible journey of building Datastride Analytics. I still remember the conversation me Sumalata Kamat Karthik Chandrashekar had about the plunge into the unknown. It was definitely scary and nothing could have prepared us for the journey ahead.   In this year, we have experienced more ups and downs than in the previous 25 years combined. We talked to many awesome people, gave multiple VC pitches, built the first version of Sia, participated in competitions and exhibitions, raised funds, grew our team, validated Sia by developing multiple use cases, and much more.   In this journey, I have felt exhilarated, angry, frustrated, sad, and joyful within a couple of hours; multiple times. Such has been my experience of entrepreneurship.    Today, I'm thrilled to share some exciting milestones: 1. Sia - MVP Launch: We've successfully brought our Minimum Viable Product to life, and the initial feedback has been phenomenal! 2. Team Growth: Our passionate team has grown to a mighty 11 individuals, each bringing their unique expertise to the table. 3. Going Global: We're setting our sights beyond borders and preparing to take Datastride international! 4. Industry Validation: We've had the privilege of collaborating with industry experts, sales leaders, and potential clients who believe in our vision. 5. Paid POCs Secured: We're excited to announce upcoming paid POC projects with some major companies! This wouldn't have been possible without the dedication, innovation, and sheer grit of our incredible team. We're incredibly proud of everything we've accomplished together, and we can't wait to see what the future holds!   Here's to many more milestones, groundbreaking solutions, and a journey of continuous learning and growth! #startup #anniversary #proudteam #datadriven #sensordataanalytics #aicopilot #aiagent #globalexpansion #simpleai P.S. We're always looking for talented individuals to join our mission.

Great to see Gregory Mazgajczyk and Adam Kaucher from Irwin Mitchell’s Corporate team advising Praetura Ventures on its latest investment. The financial services company that specialises in lending and equity solutions for startups and SMEs, led a £5.4m funding round in Sprout.ai, the leading AI-led insurance claims automation company, alongside Amadeus Capital Partner. The new funding will accelerate Sprout.ai's growth strategy and drive continued investment in product innovation and AI. It will also facilitate Sprout.ai's expansion into new insurance lines and global territories, with a particular focus on North America. https://bit.ly/46V282s #VentureCapital #AI #BusinessGrowth

As 2023 draws to a close, I reflect on a year that didn't go as planned. It was a year that tested our resilience, where our targets often seemed just out of reach, and the day-to-day metrics didn't always paint the picture we hoped for. There were moments of disappointment, times when the path forward seemed unclear. But as I take a step back and view the year in its entirety, the perspective shifts. What initially felt like setbacks now appear as crucial learning moments, integral to our journey. This broader view reveals progress and perseverance, a narrative far more encouraging and insightful than any isolated statistic. This year taught us the importance of adaptability, the value of persistence, and the strength found in our collective effort. Here are some highlights from 2023: ⭐ Surge in Interest: Our traffic grew by an impressive 200%. ⭐ User Engagement: Witnessed a staggering 380% increase in conversions. ⭐ User Base Expansion: Our user community grew by 80% ⭐ Financial Growth: Monthly recurring revenue nearly doubled. ⭐ Innovation: Proud introduction of Statzon AI. ⭐ Content Expansion: Enriched with over 1.6 million new insights. Big thanks go to the Statzon team: Kimmo, Tomi, Rika, Jenny, Sylvi, Ramses, and Mikko, as well as to our board members Timo and Markus for their continuous support. I am deeply grateful to our esteemed data partners, whose dedication to providing high-quality market insights has been a cornerstone of our success at Statzon. Equally, I extend my heartfelt thanks to our investors. Your trust and belief in our vision have been instrumental in our journey. Dive into our story and discover how we're continuously shaping the future of market intelligence. Here's to an even more impactful 2024! #growth #marketintelligence #artificialintelligence #startup
