ApertureData, a Mountain View, CA-based company offering a purpose-built database that provides teams with a unified solution for managing and accessing complex multimodal datasets, raised $8.25M in Seed funding.
The round was led by TQ Ventures with participation from Westwave Capital, Interwoven Ventures, and a group of angel investors.
The company intends to use the funds to scale its production deployments, enhance user experience through improved documentation and sandbox environments, focus on ecosystem integrations, and expand its sales and marketing efforts.
Founded by Vishakha Gupta (CEO) and (CTO) Luis Remis, ApertureData provides a signature product called ApertureDB that simplifies the complexities of handling multimodal data like images, videos, embeddings, and related metadata. By using a graph database to combine keyword and label search with vector search and multimodal data management, it offers a single data layer for multimodal AI needs.
The company has already secured initial deployments with select Fortune 100 customers, including a retailer in home furnishings, a large manufacturer, some Biotech, retail, and emerging Generative AI startups.
