BUILDING THE BEST SEARCH FOR AI
Build the Best Search for AI
AI agents will become the largest consumers of information in the next few years—exceeding human searches by orders of magnitude. They don't need better Google; they need search rebuilt from scratch for how AI actually works: parallel processing of thousands of queries, instant access to proprietary databases beyond the web, and accuracy at scales that would melt current infrastructure. We're building it.
HOW IT STARTED
Valyu was founded at University College London's (UCL) Computer Science Department by researchers and engineers.
Between us we’ve co-founded data and ML companies, shipped large-scale information retrieval systems, worked on federated learning, and helped design infrastructure for startups, enterprises, and even governments. We’ve been deep in the weeds of messy data, training runs, distributed systems and broken pipelines that shouldn’t have worked but somehow did. We are now using that experience to build the biggest index for AI while making sure content owners get paid.
We like building ambitious things, especially when they’re technically interesting, useful and fun to use.
It's not just work, it's about making an awesome product, pushing the boundaries of engineering and research....and enjoying every bit of it.
We build, Build with us 🛠️
