Ekai

Verified business context for enterprise AI agents: expert-defined semantic models and transformation code for the data warehouse
Ekai Inc. builds the business context enterprise AI agents need before they can be trusted with corporate data. Its platform writes the semantic models and data-transformation code that AI tools rely on to read a company's data warehouse correctly. It starts from domain experts: they define what a metric or term (e.g. 'active user') means, Ekai treats that as named, owned ground truth, turns it into machine-readable logic and validation rules, and ships nothing until it has been checked against warehouse data. Ekai calls this 'forward-engineering', in contrast to rivals that reverse-engineer meaning from existing BI dashboards, query history or dbt projects. It says semantic modelling that took teams three to six months was done in as little as six hours in early engagements. Workflows run on Snowflake (including Snowflake Marketplace), with support for Databricks, BigQuery, Redshift, Azure Synapse, Postgres, ClickHouse and DuckDB. Co-founders CEO Moatassim 'Mo' Aidrus, Chief AI Officer Hussnain Ahmed and Tero Miikki each spent 20+ years in leadership at Accenture, Microsoft and UPM-Kymmene. In September 2026 it raised a $1.7M pre-seed led by Misneach with C10 Labs.
