Roboflow Helps Unlock Computer Vision for Every Kind of AI Builder

Ninety percent of information transmitted to the human brain is visual. The importance of sight in understanding the world makes computer vision essential for AI systems.

By simplifying computer vision development, startup Roboflow helps bridge the gap between AI and people looking to harness it. Trusted by over a million developers and half of the Fortune 100 companies, Roboflow's mission is to make the world programmable through computer vision. Roboflow Universe is home to the largest collection of open-source computer vision datasets and models.

Cofounder and CEO Joseph Nelson joined the NVIDIA AI Podcast to discuss how Roboflow empowers users in manufacturing, healthcare and automotive to solve complex problems with visual AI.

A member of the NVIDIA Inception program for cutting-edge startups, Roboflow streamlines model training and deployment, helping organizations extract value from images and video using computer vision. For example, using the technology, automotive companies can improve production efficiency, and scientific researchers can identify microscopic cell populations.

Over $50 trillion in global GDP is dependent on applying AI to problems in industrial settings, and NVIDIA is working with Roboflow to deliver those solutions. Nelson also shares insights from his entrepreneurial journey, emphasizing perseverance, adaptability and community in building a mission-driven company. Impactful technology isn't just about innovation, he says. It's about making powerful tools accessible to the people solving real problems.

Looking ahead, Nelson highlights the potential of multimodal AI, where vision integrates with other data types to unlock new possibilities, and the importance of running models on the edge, especially on real-time video. Learn more about the latest advancements in visual agents and edge computing at NVIDIA GTC, a global AI conference taking place March 17-21 in San Jose, California.
