The platform delivers critical training and evaluation data through curated expert knowledge from leading professionals, including physicians from Mayo Clinic and senior executives at companies like SpaceX and Google, alongside proprietary datasets and systematic evaluation methodologies across the artificial intelligence ecosystem. Cobalt AI’s infrastructure is designed to support the development and validation requirements of leading AI research labs, companies building autonomous AI agents, and institutional investors evaluating AI opportunities.
“AI labs, companies building AI agents, and institutional investors are our core customers. They require a level of data quality and evaluation rigor that goes far beyond what’s available through conventional data providers,” said Daniel Blay, Founder of Cobalt AI. “These organizations need access to expert-curated datasets from world-class professionals, physicians at Mayo Clinic, senior executives at SpaceX, and robust evaluation frameworks that can actually measure AI capability improvements. Our platform bridges that gap by providing proprietary expert data combined with evaluation tools not available elsewhere.”
Cobalt AI is based in San Francisco and operates at the intersection of expert knowledge curation and artificial intelligence development, supporting the next generation of AI systems, autonomous agents, and AI-focused investment strategies.
Before founding Cobalt AI, Blay served as Vice President at Zipline, a San Francisco-based robotics company specializing in autonomous logistics systems. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Econometrics from the University of Sydney.
