Tribe AI

Tribe AI, founded in 2019, is an enterprise AI services company that pairs industry expertise with forward-deployed engineers to help Fortune 1000 companies design and deploy production AI systems. Rather than advising from the sidelines, its engineers own problems end to end and build real systems alongside client teams. The company's work spans artificial intelligence, machine learning, AI/ML engineering and cloud platforms, with a platform-agnostic approach and partnerships across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, OpenAI and Anthropic.

The firm draws on a network of more than 500 AI and machine learning experts. Clients include MyFitnessPal, in health and fitness, and New Relic, in observability and application performance monitoring. Tribe AI maintains SOC 2 Type II certification for security and compliance, and describes its focus as solutions that ship, scale and compound.

Tribes AI was bootstrapped for six years before raising funding, the amount and stage of which are unspecified. The company has a presence in New York, San Francisco and Lisbon. Its stated conviction is that every company would need to become an AI company, and its delivery model is built around forward-deployed engineers who build alongside clients rather than advise them.
