CrowdAI has contributed significant advancements to the AI / ML field, earning a place among America’s most promising AI companies as listed by Forbes in 2021.
"Joining Saab is a momentous step for us. As part of Saab, the team we’ve built will open new doors for dual-use technological advancement that aligns with the Department of Defense’s priorities. I’m eager to contribute to Saab's important work across industries and markets,” says Devaki Raj, CEO and Co-Founder of CrowdAI.
