Mission: To eliminate the most fundamental bottlenecks in autonomous systems development and enhance productivity and reliability in the industry.

“At Deepen AI, we are tackling the core bottlenecks that prevent a swifter, safer transition to autonomous driving,” – Mohammad Musa, the founder and CEO.

History: With a desire to boost the productivity and reliability in autonomous systems, three ex-Google engineers and product managers, Mohammad Musa, Cheuksan Wang and Anil Muthineni, decided in 2017 to launch Deepen AI, to help companies iterate faster on all annotation and validation needs.

Area of work: Universities, laboratories and companies developing ADAS and AV technologies collect massive amounts of data from different on-board sensors such as cameras, radar and LiDAR. To use this data for training AI and machine learning (ML) algorithms for autonomous driving, companies need extremely accurate annotation of the data sets.

Deepen AI’s product solution uses advanced deep learning and computer vision AI algorithms, along with offshore human talent, to accurately and efficiently annotate camera, LiDAR, and radar data. This saves companies time by being far more efficient than current solutions. Additionally, Deepen AI tools support a wide variety of multi-sensor labeling needs in 2D and 3D.
