About TheMarketAI.com

"How many times can you fit the letters 'AI' into a press release?" — this used to be an inside joke at a company I worked for, which did, in fact, have genuine AI technology (albeit in a very niche domain).

AI has become the latest buzzword on Wall Street, and today almost anyone can claim to "use AI." But in reality, only a select group of companies are truly at the forefront of AI innovation.

In our view, AI represents the most profound technological revolution since the Internet. We are witnessing the early formation of this market — one with the potential to transform virtually every industry.

While much of the attention focused on the AI giants (OpenAI, NVIDIA, DeepSeek, and others), history shows that technological revolutions often create new opportunities for smaller players. Just as the Internet era gave rise to entirely new industry leaders, we believe that small and medium-sized companies pushing the boundaries of AI technology, application, and usage could become the next generation of unicorns. We also expect that an increasing share of VC and angel investment will flow into the AI ecosystem in the years ahead.

TheMarketAI.com is built to track, report on, and support the evolution of this market. Our particular focus is on surfacing news and developments from small and medium-sized AI companies — those who may not yet dominate headlines but are doing important work at the cutting edge of AI.
