PredictHQ
PredictHQ is a demand intelligence company that aggregates, verifies and enriches data on real-world events - concerts, sports, conferences, public holidays, severe weather, school breaks and more - into a single API-first source of truth. Companies plug this verified context into their forecasting models, AI systems and operational workflows to explain and predict demand shifts they would otherwise miss. Founded in Auckland in 2015 and now headquartered in San Francisco, PredictHQ counts Uber, Domino's, Expedia Group, Instacart, Walgreens and IHG among its customers, and says its data can explain more than 60% of demand variability.
Nomad Data
Nomad Data is a New York-based AI platform that helps companies find, buy, and understand external data. Founded in 2020 by Brad Schneider and Justin Manikas, it began as a marketplace matching data buyers to a network of thousands of providers - buyers submit a use case, and providers respond with data that can actually solve it. The platform has since expanded into an AI layer for reading unstructured documents (its Doc Chat product) and managing data relationships, serving hedge funds, private equity, insurance, and asset-management firms that spend heavily on third-party data.
