Katonic.ai

Katonic was founded in April 2020 with a vision of building a Data Science Platform for the masses that Netflix, Airbnb, Uber, Google and the rest of the big players had been building internally for years. We believe that there are a lot of open-source slim solutions that solve specific problems very well over big suites of tools and big platform solutions and hence have stitched them togeather to offer an end to end Open enterprise MLOps Solution. 

Katonic’s aim is to bring MLOps for enterprises that can’t afford to invest years into a platform and instead want to hit the ML ground running. We believe that data scientists should be empowered to take solutions, ideas and experiments all the way from raw data to production, while having minimal exposure to lower-level infrastructure components. Data scientists should spend their time processing and analyzing data and writing code, not fighting with project environments, containers, and cloud infrastructure.
