Our Story

Prediction Guard, founded in January 2023 emerged as a response to the burgeoning need for secure tooling to integrate generative AI into enterprise applications.

The venture began with an Minimum Viable Product (MVP), which, after insightful feedback from early users, evolved into an enterprise GenAI platform that launched to enterprise customers in July 2023.

Since then, Prediction Guard has successfully onboarded customers in healthcare, manufacturing, defense, transportation, and other regulated industries.

The company continues to improve the product and contribute to the wider discussion around AI security and privacy by participating in committees organized by bodies like MLCommons and in conversations on the Practical AI podcast.

Mission: To restore trust in human institutions via secure and privacy-preserving intelligence.
