Founded in 2007, Sentient Technologies was one of the world's most well-funded artificial intelligence startups, raising over $143 million. The company's mission was to solve the world's most complex problems by building the most powerful AI platform. They utilized evolutionary computation and deep learning on a massive distributed computing scale. Their technology was applied to e-commerce, digital media optimization, and financial trading. Despite its significant funding and ambitious goals, the company ceased its primary operations in 2019. Subsequently, Cognizant acquired Sentient's engineering and R&D teams based in San Francisco and Amsterdam to enhance its own AI capabilities.
