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.
