Danti secured $5 million to accelerate its AI-powered Earth data analyst

Danti is a company building an AI Data Analyst capable of helping its users make sense of large volumes of data across multiple sources, types, and formats. Currently, Danti is focused on servicing its government customers, although it has plans for future expansion into commerce and logistics. In the government sector, Danti enables its customers to leverage data and analysis from government and commercial sources, including satellite imagery, computer vision-based analytics, reports, news, social media, shipping data, global events, and active fires. A commercial version of Danti would focus on property records, parcel information, and risk data to assist industries like utilities and insurance.

Danti helps human analysts optimize data analysis workflows by answering ordinary language queries such as "What are the latest tank movements in Eastern Ukraine?" By making information readily available, Danti empowers human workers to improve their performance, allowing them to focus on higher-level tasks such as reporting and decision-making instead of spending valuable time performing lower-level tasks, such as reviewing uninterpreted satellite or drone data and looking for a specific answer. One of the company's earlier government customers is the United States Space Force, which uses Danti to empower Guardians and Airmen to search, discover, and share Earth datasets.

Danti secured $5 million in a seed funding round led by Shield Capital, backed by existing investors Tech Square Ventures, Humba Ventures, and Leo Polovets, in addition to Space.VC, and Radius Capital. The seed funding round follows a $2.75 million pre-seed led by Tech Square Ventures with participation from Radius Capital, which was raised less than a year ago.
