About Refuel.ai

The Mission
Great companies are built on great data. The most successful companies - think Amazon, Google and Meta - employ thousands of data scientists, and spend billions on infrastructure and human operations to solve this problem today.

Refuel’s platform enables enterprises to clean, enrich and label their mountains of messy, unstructured data at superhuman accuracy, by leveraging state-of-the-art LLMs. Recognizing merchants in credit card transactions, parsing candidate resumes, enriching business profiles, standardizing product catalogs – these are just a few examples of applications that our users are building with Refuel, and we’re just getting started. With LLMs, we believe we can solve this data quality bottleneck for every single enterprise in the world, and accelerate the era of AI abundance

The team
Refuel was founded by Rishabh Bhargava  and Nihit Desai, and is backed by General Catalyst and XYZ Ventures. We are a small, tightly knit team of builders with deep backgrounds in AI, having worked at the world's leading technology companies and institutions such as Meta, Google Deepmind, Amazon, Lyft, Primer.ai, Stanford and Cambridge. We work out of our offices in San Francisco, CA.
