ModelOp is a Chicago-based enterprise software company that builds AI governance and lifecycle automation software. Its flagship platform, ModelOp Center, acts as a centralized system of record and 'control tower' for all of an organization's AI - traditional machine learning, generative AI, agentic AI, and third-party tools - letting enterprises inventory every model, automate approvals and testing, enforce policy, monitor production systems for drift and risk, and produce audit-ready documentation. The company sells primarily to large, regulated enterprises such as financial services, healthcare, and government, and counts Fortune 500 names among its customers.
Pete Foley is a serial enterprise-software entrepreneur and the co-founder of ModelOp, the Chicago-based company that built one of the first platforms for governing AI models the way banks govern money. Over a 35-year career he has run and exited a string of infrastructure companies - Infoblox, PortAuthority (to Websense), RingCube (to Citrix), Graphite Systems (to EMC) - before betting that the hardest problem in artificial intelligence would not be building models but trusting them. He served as ModelOp's CEO from its founding and now supports the company from its board of directors.
Nick Elprin is the Co-Founder and CEO of Domino Data Lab, the enterprise MLOps platform trusted by 20% of the Fortune 100. A Harvard computer science graduate who spent seven years as a senior technologist and quantitative researcher at Bridgewater Associates, he co-founded Domino in 2013 to solve the scaling problem he witnessed firsthand: companies could start data science projects but couldn't industrialize them. Under his leadership, Domino has raised $226+ million, been named a Gartner Magic Quadrant Visionary, and become the infrastructure layer for AI in regulated industries including pharma, financial services, and defense. Elprin is also a decade-long meditation practitioner and a vocal advocate for the irreplaceable role of human intelligence in data science.
