Gaining Momentum

PerceptiLabs offers a highly relevant visual API for TensorFlow with strong technical utility and market timing. However, the evaluation is heavily penalized due to unprofessional, exaggerated claims ('everyone' for audience reach, 'most people have used my product' for traction). While a 30-person team and reported financial metrics suggest some genuine underlying scale, the poor response quality significantly limits verifiable confidence, placing the project in the small-but-promising tier.

Description
PerceptiLabs has developed a next-generation ML tool with our visual modeler that took the best of all worlds - the flexibility of code, some automation in to connect components, generate model architectures as well as tune settings and hyperparameters, combined with the ease of a drag and drop UI. This makes model building easier, faster, and accessible to more users, whether you are an expert or beginner. We designed our tool as a visual API on top of TensorFlow, which has grown to become the most popular ML framework. This gives developers full access to the low-level TensorFlow API and the freedom to pull in other Python modules. Most importantly, users have full transparency into how their model is architected and a view into how their model performs. You drag and drop components; we’ll generate the visualizations and TensorFlow code for you. That’s machine learning at warp speed with PerceptiLabs.
