Alexandre Berkovic
Alexandre Berkovic is the co-founder and CEO of Sphinx (YC F24), a San Francisco company building browser-native AI agents that do the grunt work of financial compliance - the KYC, AML and KYB checks that banks and fintechs run millions of times a year. He trained as a Design Engineer at Imperial College London and studied machine learning at MIT, did research on multi-modal generative AI, and co-founded and exited an audio-generation startup, Adorno AI, before pivoting into compliance with co-founder Chrisjan Wust. In February 2026 Sphinx raised a $7.1M seed led by Cherry Ventures.
Rohan Kodialam
Rohan Kodialam is the co-founder and CEO of Sphinx, a New York applied-AI research firm building agents that actually understand data. A former Citadel quant who learned to squeeze alpha out of messy alternative datasets, and an MIT-trained researcher who once taught transformers to read hierarchical data, he started Sphinx on a simple observation: software engineers got Copilot, everyone else got ChatGPT, and data scientists got nothing. In 2025 Sphinx launched out of stealth with a $9.5M seed led by Lightspeed and backers including Steve Cohen and Naveen Rao, betting that the next frontier of AI is not language or code, but the spreadsheets and warehouses where real decisions get made.
