Sentient.io bags undisclosed series A funding

This brings the total investment raised to more than $7.09m.

AI and data platform Sentient.io has closed its series A funding from Singapore and Japanese investors led by Digital Garage Group, ABC Dream Ventures, and Leave a Nest Group, according to an announcement.

This brings the total investment raised to more than $7.09m (US$5m) since May 2017. The new funds will be used for scaling the platform to the global market, especially to fulfil the surging demand for digital transformation from Japanese corporations.

Sentient.io’s founder and CEO Christopher Yeo said they will continue to raise funds from the international financial markets to expand talent in research, sales, and engineering. “We will also scale up our presence locally as well as overseas with sales offices starting in Japan this year. Expansion into Indonesia and the US are being planned,” he said.

Sentient.io has built an AI and data platform, which allows software developers to pick from its pre-trained AI microservices to create smart applications powered by AI, and for big data owners to generate the new values from their data asset.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
