Sachin Dev Duggal Engineer AI

With the advent of iPad, tablets, and smart phones, the desktop computer has taken a back seat albeit it remains an important component in the world of information technology. Sachin Duggal and his friend Saurabh Pradeep Dhoot found this as an opportunity to deliver a platform that lets users access their desktop computers from any device.

In 2000 they launched Nivio Technologies with the intent of finding a solution to "why must users pay for a software or hardware that will soon become obsolete." They developed a platform that could let users access latest versions of software from their personal computer, delivered over the Internet, as and when they need it, on any device.

Sachin Dev Duggal Engineer AI company has brought Microsoft Windows on the Web. Its CloudPC platform created Windows desktop that worked on iPad, Mac, Linux, as well as on all Android tablets. It enables the users to access their personal computers, data, applications from anywhere, any time, on any device. Nivio has also launched an appstore for desktop applications to be delivered from the cloud which allows users to rent applications such as the complete Microsoft productivity suite.

Para-Hollywood-esque team-up can be seen in Sachin Dev Duggal Engineer.ai

Humans and Artificial Intelligence make for a really unstoppable match-up. A far cry from the robots and cyborgs of fiction, human-AI interaction in today’s world, comes about through a partnership of one uplifting the other, acknowledging wherein the weaknesses of their partner lie.

An example of this in Para-Hollywood-esque team-up can be seen in Sachin Dev Duggal Engineer.ai, and its signature product — Builder. Builder, for all intents and purposes, is Machine based. This means that it relies on algorithmic interactions to predicate an outcome. Builder is essentially Software that creates other Software. The thing is, AI fail to understand the customisability, and nuance, which humans tend to grasp so well; inversely, humans cannot create an application as tirelessly, and efficiently as a machine can. Engineer.ai, and CEO Sachin Dev Duggal, has come to accept this phenomenon — thus constructing Builder based on a Human-assisted-AI platform. This ground-breaking partnership might very well be the building blocks for even bigger projects in the future — such as robots, and cyborgs!

Can you explain briefly what Engineer.ai is and how it came into existence?

Engineer.ai presents an instant prototyping tool that helps anyone take the first step in designing an app and making their business idea a reality in as little as 10 minutes. Founder and CEO Sachin Dev Duggal Engineer AI talks about how they go about doing it.

Can you explain briefly what Engineer.ai is and how it came into existence?

The premise behind Builder was to make software development accessible to anyone, anywhere.

[amarawilliams]

Engineer.ai is co-founded by Sachin Dev Duggal in 2012 and the founder has brought an “assembly line vision to software development so that the 140 million new small businesses formed globally every year can build out their ideas into tangible products”. According to news reports, the low code...

According to news reports, the low code no code AI platform has raised a funding of $29.5 million led by Lakestar and Jungle Ventures along with Softbank’s DeepCore. Reports indicate the investment will be used for deepening engineering operations and drive customer acquisition, Sachin Dev Duggal Engineer AI noted in reports. The company is planning expansion in Asia Pacific region, especially India, South East Asia including China.

What is AI? How does Engineer.ai leverage AI in its platform?

“Artificial intelligence (AI) is an area of computer science that emphasizes the creation of intelligent machines that work and react like humans. Some of the activities computers with artificial intelligence are designed for include speech recognition, learning, planning, and problem solving.”

Engineer.ai is a Human-Assisted AI platform for building tailor-made software. The platform combines the power of humans, experts in their field with boundless creativity, with AI to create a variety of applications for a wide set of customers.

The platform creates much of the ‘app’ and then algorithmically sources human talent from our network to bring it to life, needless to say, by working together.

We don’t claim to fully automate App Development [the fully autonomous development process (program synthesis) is the holy grail and is many years away]. Rather, we rely on a Human and AI partnership, wherein the reusable software (in traditional software development, duplicated code makes up approximately 60% of the product) is machine produced and the other 40%; what makes most projects unique, is human produced.

From as early as 2017, our founder and CEO has coined the word “Human-Assisted AI” because at a core level, we believe that human creativity and talent will always be part of the idea creation and building journey.

Realistically, and rather pragmatically, there would be no benefit in Engineer.ai spending big bucks (we are talking tens of millions) developing fully autonomous development when we can deliver the customer benefit by focusing on making automatic what is otherwise repetitive, wasteful or inefficient

To run software, Engineer.ai built CloudOps — which uses a combination of data engineering and statistical models to make real time prediction, infrastructure purchases and exchanges (often running into millions of dollars) in an optimal way to benefit our customers.

Needless to say, whilst we can be proud of our technology and what were are continuing to build, the real truth is that because of what we have built, we have already helped entrepreneurs & small businesses to:

BUILD: Build your idea effortlessly with Builder instantly without any coding knowledge.

RUN: Never pay for building the same app again, get warranty for updates.

SCALE: Get everything from cloud infrastructure and analytics to paid services.

Sachin Dev Duggal Engineer.ai Funding Round

Engineer.ai, the human-assisted AI that helps companies build and operate custom-made software, has raised Series A funding of $29.5 million, led by Lakestar and Jungle Ventures with participation from Softbank's DeepCore.

Led by serial entrepreneur Sachin Dev Duggal Engineer.ai was created with the belief that everyone should be able to build their ideas without needing to code, and that any idea can be brought to life without wastage of time, money or resources.

Sachin Dev Duggal, Co-founder and Chief Wizard of Engineer.ai. said, "The capital comes at a time of rapid growth and will propel the platform into the mainstream, allowing Builder to open the door for entire categories of companies that could not consider it before."

The company will use 65 percent of the fresh capital for engineering purposes and the rest for customer acquisition, it said in a statement. The current headcount in the company is 150 across the globe, and the company claimed that it will double this to 300 by June 2019.

The platform has 32,000 engineers right now, of which 10,000 are from India. "This will go up to 250,000 engineers from India within 24 months," said Engineer.ai.

Bootstrapped since 2012, Sachin Dev Duggal, Engineer.ai is a global company with split headquarters in Los Angeles and London, supported by offices in Delhi and Tokyo. The company's newly launched product called 'Builder' is an AI-powered Software Assembly line that breaks projects into small building blocks of re-usable features that are customised by engineers for bespoke software "at a fraction of the price and time of traditional development", it claims.

Engineer.ai also provides fully integrated service to its customers from extended warranty via BuilderCare to the CloudOps marketplace that provides access to everything the software might need, including hosting, microservices and marketing.
