Jigso co-founders join Placer.ai to strengthen AI capabilities
Or Shani and Tomer Naveh each bring 16 years of experience in AI and machine learning, to help drive the expansion of Placer.ai’s AI capabilities.
Placer.ai announced on Thursday that Or Shani and Tomer Naveh, co-founders of Jigso, are joining the company. They will work closely with Placer.ai's established AI teams and leadership, bringing additional expertise to the company's ongoing AI development efforts and helping accelerate initiatives already underway.
Or Shani will join Placer.ai as its Executive in Residence business development, and Tomer Naveh as its Vice President R&D, AI Actions.
Shani and Naveh's first company, Albert.ai, was one of the first autonomous AI platforms for advertising; they took it public and later sold it. At Jigso, they built an AI organizational platform that reasoned over business signals to surface insights, detect anomalies and take action.
“Our ambition was never to be just an analytics platform,” said Noam Ben-Zvi, CEO and co-founder of Placer.ai. “We sit on one of the most unique datasets in the world, and AI is how we unlock its full value. We've been investing heavily in AI for years, building an exceptional team and developing capabilities that are already shaping the future of our platform. Or and Tomer have been building real-world AI for 16 years, and they've surrounded themselves with outstanding talent. Their experience and expertise will be a tremendous addition to the team we've built and the work already underway. Bringing together our proprietary data, our existing AI expertise and these exceptional new colleagues puts us in an even stronger position to deliver on our vision. And we're just getting started.”
