Venture capital with adesso ventures

Everybody is talking about large language models. The generative language model ChatGPT, from the American company OpenAI, is currently shattering records in terms of user numbers and media attention. The AI chatbot, which is capable of answering all sorts of text-based questions, is already expected to have a disruptive effect on business and society.

Perceptor is the core product of TamedAI, a start-up founded in 2019. As an AI-based multimodal large language model, it too operates in this context, with a focus on the content-specific, semantic analysis of documents. The multilingual Perceptor allows companies from any industry to automatically scan documents to extract a wide range of information and content for further processing. It does so without manual data recording, helping save businesses and the public sector a tremendous amount of time and money.

Malte Unger, Managing Director of adesso ventures, explains adesso’s decision to invest, citing the tremendous market potential forecast for the innovation: “Perceptor is a real asset for document processing. It goes well beyond the typical text recognition applications to date, which have been based solely on optical character recognition technology, or OCR. Perceptor is capable of using AI to fully and comprehensively analyse documents on the basis of neural networks. We see the solution as an analysis technology of the future – one that adesso now also plans to deploy in customer projects in its role as both an investor and IT service provider.”
