Dan Roth
Dan Roth is the co-founder and CEO of Scaled Cognition, a Mountain View AI company building reliable, hallucination-free models for enterprises. Its flagship Agentic Pretrained Transformer (APT) tops agentic benchmarks and powers customer-service agents that follow policy and take action where accuracy matters, such as banking, insurance, and telecom.
