Aionics Named to CB Insights’ AI 100 2024

CB Insights today named Aionics to its eighth-annual AI 100, showcasing the 100 most promising private AI companies of 2024.

“AI is taking off at lightning speed, and it’s not just big tech companies at the forefront of it,” said Deepashri Varadharajan, director of AI research at CB Insights. “Our AI 100 winners – many of them early stage startups, some with very small teams – are pushing the boundaries of AI in everything from game development and battery design to agentic AI systems.”

The AI 100 includes companies across many verticals, including healthcare, materials, mobility, models, development platforms, and computer vision. Aionics was recognized in the category of energy.

The 100 winners were chosen based on several factors, including CB Insights’ data on deal activity, industry partnerships, team strength, investor strength, patent activity, and proprietary Mosaic Scores. Other companies included on the list this year include OpenAI, Anthropic, and Databricks.

“We’re grateful for this recognition,” said Aionics CEO Austin Sendek. “This is not just an acknowledgement of all the great work our team has done, but of the emerging importance of AI in energy and materials broadly.”
