About

Code4Thought is a technology company with a unique purpose, to render technology transparent, for large-scale software systems and AI models. Our vision is to help people trust technology, so we support organizations in creating and using technology in a sustainable and responsible way either from a technical or a human point of view.

Solution & Product

The need for control and governance of AI technology by all involved stakeholders makes transparency and fairness an absolute imperative for AI systems. For that reason, Code4Thought is developing the Pythia technology.

Innovation & Scalability

Explainable AI is only beginning to be developed. C4T is one of very few companies worldwide to work on Trusted AI. Our main source of differentiation is the viewpoint applied in developing Pythia, which is the result of our prior experience. For almost two decades C4T evaluates large scale software systems, so as to help corporations address any potential risks & flaws. We have come to realize that the produced technology is the mirror of its organization and the result of human labor and choices. We are turning this experience into a trusted human-centric solution, that is applicable across industries & domains and enables people with different business needs and background knowledge to understand, control & trust technology. Pythia technology is fully scalable, since it is vendor agnostic, operable in any type of infrastructure, cloud provider and model type and is able to address all market segments in terms of industry and application thanks to its cross-domain approach. Given the predicted growth rates of both the Explainable AI Market & AI Market, Pythia’s growth potential is exponential.
