Ivan Lee - Datasaur Founder

Ivan Lee is the CEO and Founder of Datasaur.ai. He graduated with a Computer Science B.S. from Stanford University. He was chosen for the selective Mayfield Fellows entrepreneurship program in 2010. Ivan went on to found Loki Studios, an iOS game studio. After raising institutional funding from DCM's A-Fund and launching a profitable game, Loki was acquired by Yahoo.

Ivan spent the next 10 years building AI products at a number of companies, most recently at Apple. He discovered that while the industry was focused on Computer Vision tooling, there was a significant gap in serving Natural Language Processing (NLP) technologies and labeling raw text and audio data - most companies were using a painful combination of spreadsheets, open source tooling and clunky in-house tools.

Placing a big bet on the potential of NLP, he built Datasaur to focus on democratizing access. Datasaur now serves data science teams at institutions such as Google, Netflix, Zoom, Qualtrics, Stanford, Harvard, Oxford and more.
