Founding Story

Our story begins at Meta AI. We were the engineering and product team who built the core development platform for machine learning at Meta. We've dealt with the challenges of model management, ML monitoring & explainability, concept drift, data lineage, and much more. These experiences exposed us to the 'last mile' issues that often hinder AI's accessibility and readiness for production. We believe the future of generative AI extends beyond ML practitioners, and that it will be software engineers driving AI innovation across verticals and industries. This is why we are building LastMile AI, a company focused on making AI accessible and production-ready for software engineers.
