Schemata, Inc.
Schemata is a San Francisco spatial intelligence company building an AI-native interface to the physical world. It turns 2D images and physical assets into photorealistic, interactive 3D training environments where an AI instructor coaches workers through procedures, inspections, and maintenance - claiming content built roughly 10x faster and up to 85% cheaper than traditional simulation. Founded in 2023 and out of a16z Speedrun, it serves defense and enterprise customers including NAVSEA, multiple U.S. Air Force units, Northeastern University, Nestle, and Nabors, and raised a $5M seed led by Owl Ventures in May 2025.
Bifrost AI
Bifrost AI builds simulation and evaluation infrastructure for physical AI. Its platform generates photorealistic 3D synthetic data and stress-tests robotics and computer-vision systems across thousands of simulated scenarios - weather, sensor noise, rare edge cases - so teams can train and validate models in minutes instead of months. Used across maritime, geospatial, aerial, off-road, industrial, and off-world domains, with collaborators including NASA JPL and the U.S. Air Force. Founded in 2020 and backed by an $8M Series A led by Carbide Ventures with participation from Airbus Ventures and Peak XV's Surge.
