Insight Partners has invested over $4B in artificial intelligence and data ScaleUps.

    Building an AI ScaleUp requires large up-front investments as companies seek product-market fit, attract top talent, and build a scalable tech stack. Founders need an investor like Insight who understands the vision and long-term commitment required for an AI ScaleUp to succeed.
    Lonne Jaffe
    Managing Director at Insight Partners
depth

We’ve been tracking 28,765 AI/ML startups and ScaleUps since 2014.

 

 

Building a valid artificial intelligence (AI) model is an iterative process. Investors need to be willing to commit to the long-term time horizons necessary for the engineering and data science powering AI to deliver value. We believe an important factor of the AI and machine learning (ML) market is how this tech applies not only as a vertical business model but also as a horizontally-integrated aspect of many other technology sectors. The wide-ranging use cases for AI are driving opportunities in tech today, including generative AI for writing and design, AI-assisted diagnostic health technologies, and AI-powered efficiency improvements across industries.

 

We believe that AI is integral to B2C and B2B software, and Insight is searching for economic moats, whether in ScaleUps building large foundational models, fine-tuning the models for specific use cases, or even in non-AI software where models integrate with real-world systems. We see opportunities for new MLOps tools and skills, as well as foundational AI models for specific domains.

 

With deep market expertise, experienced business operators in Insight Onsite, and a dedicated industry-wide conference, ScaleUp:AI, we are positioned to help AI/ML & Data companies win in the market.

We’ve tracked the evolution of 3,267 DevOps startups and ScaleUps since 2014.

THENEWSTACK, which serves as a source of DevOps best practices, notes that highly evolved firms are making extensive DevOps automation a focus as software development lifecycles become increasingly automated and cloud-based. According to THENEWSTACK, only a fraction of the DevOps model’s capacity is being used today, with DevOps’ upside yet to be fully implemented. 

 

Insight invests in software ScaleUps seeking to realize the potential of DevOps via:

 

  • Tool kits and automation for DevOps teams
  • Capabilities to move from traditional infrastructure to microservices architecture
  • Processes that adapt firm culture to enhance DevOps teams

With $4B+ invested in Fintech globally, Insight Partners believes in the future potential of innovative ScaleUps to transform the financial services market.

  • pull-quote-orange
    Next-gen financial services have strong adoption. Insight Partners doesn’t believe that Fintechs will entirely replace traditional financial services, rather, both have strong competitive advantages. The best possible outcome for end-users’ success is a mix of each of them. We’ve backed innovators who we believe effectively compete in the FinTech ecosystem.
    Deven Parekh
    Managing Director at Insight Partners
depth

We’ve tracked the emergence of 22,335 Fintech startups and ScaleUps since 2014.

Insight is investing behind the shift to digitized financial services, where we believe that several key trends are shaping the market’s evolution.

 

One trend is innovative forms of payment that provide cheaper, faster, safer, and easier-to-use alternatives to legacy systems. Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) solutions make it easier for non-banks to launch new, embedded finance products. Embedded finance — whether from a retailer, airline, or money management app — makes financial services faster and more convenient for consumers. This also provides cheaper access to credit for millions of unbanked or under-banked people. 

 

A further area of innovation are the partnerships between traditional financial institutions and Fintech startups, as traditional institutions are disrupting their own processes to improve automation, security, customer experience, and fraud detection.

depth

We’ve tracked the progression of 676 up-and-coming Life Sciences companies since 2014.

Biology is a form of computation, far more sophisticated than anything we have engineered. New measurement tools provide immense heterogenous data that no human could hope to untangle. Fortunately, algorithms have accelerated to keep pace, and machine learning is now a regular part of the biopharma development stack, impacting everything from target discovery to patient recruitment and trial design, to how drugs are paid for and prescribed.

 

We believe that technology is the future of medicine. Whether it is cryoEM, digital twins, or new approaches to protein engineering, we love to meet founders who are applying the latest technical advances to address critical unmet needs for patients, researchers, and the life sciences industry. We believe that technology will transform clinical research and the new modalities pioneered today will become the pillars of tomorrow’s pharmacopeia. Technological innovations in all functions of the biopharma lifecycle will bring new treatments to patients faster and more efficiently.

 

Insight invests in therapeutics and software companies across diverse disease areas and stages of the biopharma value chain. We provide long-term capital support to what we believe are the best companies operating at the forefront of biology, technology, and medicine.
