History, Vision & Values

We are AI professionals: Data Scientists, AI Researchers & Engineers. In 2021, we created Giskard to address the challenges we faced in ensuring the performance, fairness, and security of AI models. We combine 25 years of experience developing mission-critical AI systems, particularly at Dataiku and Thales.

Giskard defends the vision of a Responsible AI that serves the business performance of companies and respects the rights of citizens. To embody this mission, Giskard provides AI professionals with a holistic testing platform to ensure the quality, security & compliance of AI models.

In 2022, we raised our first round of 1.5 M€ led by Elaia with participation from Bessemer & notable angel investors including the CTO of Hugging Face. To learn more, you can read our announcement.

In 2023, we received a strategic investment of 3 M€ from the European Commission to build a SaaS platform to automate compliance with the upcoming EU AI regulation. You can read more here.

In 2024, we won a 3 M€ grant from Bpifrance to lead research in evaluation & mitigation for Large Language Models (LLMs), in a collaborative consortium with Mistral AI, Artefact, INA and BnF. You can learn more here.

We believe in good engineering, collaboration & responsible innovation. We are:
  • Passionate about building robust solutions to real-life problems
  • Driven by customer needs and outstanding user experiences
  • Hungry to learn and improve every day
  • Conscious about technology's role in our society
  • Empathetic team players
