LONDON, England, January 4, 2024 (Newswire.com)
–
The pioneering force behind the world’s first commercial AI for erosion impact prediction proudly announces the successful closure of a $550K seed funding round. This investment propels the London-based company, led by founder Alex Pourquery, further in its mission to deliver cutting-edge erosion forecasting solutions vital for sustainable land management.
The seed funding round, which closed on November 15, 2023, saw a significant investment of $300K from an undisclosed angel lead investor, marking a confident endorsement of the potential impact Quantas Labs is set to have in the geoscience realm. Accompanying this investment, several other undisclosed investors also contributed to the round, showcasing the growing trust in Quantas Labs’ vision under Pourquery, who is just 20 years old.
Quantas Labs’ proprietary technology is built on an advanced hybrid AI framework, combining multi-layered convolutional neural network (CNN) architecture with recurrent neural network (RNN) components. This integration enables the processing of intricate geospatial datasets and temporal data sequences, facilitating accurate and dynamic erosion predictions.
The support from our investors is a testament to the potential of our AI-driven technology to revolutionize erosion impact prediction,” said Alex Pourquery, CEO of Quantas Labs. “This seed funding will significantly boost our development and go-to-market strategies, accelerating our path to becoming a leader in geotechnical analysis.”
Quantas Labs’ innovative approach includes:
- Real-Time Data Integration: Leveraging API-driven real-time climatic data for responsive erosion forecasting.
- Advanced Soil Type Classification: Utilizing hyperspectral imaging to differentiate soil types crucial for erosion assessments.
- Robust Data Handling: Implementing data augmentation and semi-supervised learning models to overcome the challenge of data sparsity, especially in remote areas.
“Quantas Labs is committed to serving a wide range of beneficiaries, from local governments and environmentalists to agricultural and construction sectors. With the new funding, we’re poised to broaden our reach and further advance our AI platform,” said Alex Pourquery. “This expansion is crucial, especially as erosion and climate regulations become increasingly stringent. Our technology not only supports regulatory compliance but also sets new standards in proactive environmental management.”
As Quantas Labs embarks on this exciting phase of growth, it remains dedicated to its commitment to innovative environmental solutions. This development marks not only a significant stride in the industry but also a steadfast dedication to shaping a sustainable future.
