Clarifai

New York, NY · founded 2013

Clarifai is one of the original computer-vision startups — founder Matthew Zeiler built it in 2013 straight out of winning the top-five spots in the ImageNet image-classification challenge, and for a decade it was a New York AI mainstay selling an enterprise platform for building, deploying and running models (including a lot of public-sector work). The honest caveat, and it is a big one, is timing: in May 2026 Zeiler announced that Nebius licensed Clarifai's core engineering and research talent along with its inference and compute-orchestration IP — in plain terms, the core team moved to Nebius. Employee reviews from early-to-mid 2026 describe the same thing from the inside: layoffs, departures, and a company that had lost product focus, with management the lowest-rated dimension. Treat any 'Clarifai NYC' role with real diligence about whether the team and mission you'd be joining still exist in the form the brand implies.

the legal floor where they are

Set by law, not by Clarifai. It applies to every employer in NY.

IVF cycles the state coversNew York requires three IVF cycles, from large groups only. Insurance Law §§ 3221(k)(6)(C) and 4303(s)(3) require large group policies to cover 'three cycles of in-vitro fertilization (IVF) used to treat infertility and prescription drugs that are prescribed for the IVF treatment'. Large group means more than 100 employees, and the law applies to policies issued or renewed on or after 1 January 2020. Age restrictions are not permitted, and an insurer may not discriminate on age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status or gender identity. Small group and individual plans must cover basic infertility treatment such as intrauterine insemination but are NOT required to cover IVF. THE LIMIT THAT DECIDES WHETHER THIS REACHES YOU: the Department of Financial Services states that 'the IVF law does not apply to self-funded ERISA plans', nor to Medicaid managed care, the Essential Plan or Medicare. KFF's 2025 employer survey puts 67% of covered workers in a self-funded plan and 80% at firms of 200 or more, so at most large New York employers this law does not apply and the fertility benefit on the page is the company's own choice. (New York Insurance Law §§ 3221(k)(6)(C) and 4303(s)(3), effective 1 January 2020.)
Adoption leave the law gives12 workweeks of UNPAID job-protected leave in any 12-month period on the placement of a child for adoption or foster care, and only for employees who meet the FMLA eligibility test. There is no federal paid adoption leave. (Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. 2612(a)(1)(B) and 2612(c); eligibility at 29 U.S.C. 2611(2) and (4). Quoted from the 2023 edition of the US Code.)
Pay when you are illNo federal law requires any paid sick leave. The FLSA does not require payment for time not worked, and the FMLA gives 12 workweeks of UNPAID job-protected leave in any 12-month period for a serious health condition, and only for employees who meet the FMLA eligibility test. Any paid sick time comes from a state or city law, or from the employer's own choice. (Fair Labor Standards Act, per the Department of Labor's statement on payment for time not worked; Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993, 29 U.S.C. 2612(a)(1)(D) and 2612(c). Quoted from the 2023 edition of the US Code on govinfo.gov.)
