Samaya's Vision
Samaya is building the first Human-AI Knowledge Network — an information ecosystem designed to transform expert knowledge work.
Expert knowledge work drives trillions of dollars in economic activity. Teams of human experts painstakingly synthesize insights and make decisions based on vast volumes of noisy, real-time information. For example, in financial services, expert analysts identify and interpret key economic signals to inform high-stakes investment decisions.
As the volume of information continues to grow, traditional technologies have played only a passive role — and today’s human experts are overwhelmed by information overload. We believe AI should take an active role in complex knowledge work, becoming a true collaborator to human experts.
But such an AI won’t “simply emerge” through scale or the advancement of general-purpose LLMs. At Samaya, we are building an AI system purpose-built for expert intelligence — capable of reasoning and interacting with real-world information networks.
Our AI is designed to process dense and noisy real-time data, distill key insights, form meaningful connections, contextualize findings, and generate expert-level predictions.
We’re building a future where expert intelligence AI transforms global knowledge work — making it faster, deeper, and more impactful.

Our operating principles
-
Put users first
Our users rely on us to do their jobs. We exist because our users trust us to help them achieve their goals. In return for this trust users place in us, we keep their needs as our top priority.
-
Win as a collective
We are ambitious high achievers who support and uplift each other with kindness. Trust grows through commitment and consistency, fostering growth. As one team, we embrace feedback and succeed together.
-
Focus and iterate quickly
A bias for action drives fast learning and progress. Clear goals, ownership, and initiative fuel quick iterations. Moving decisively, refining constantly, and embracing growth lead to the best outcomes.
-
Innovate relentlessly
We challenge the status quo, seek new insights, and rethink how things are done. Focused on progress, we prioritize innovation, explore ideas, push boundaries, and raise standards to drive meaningful change.
-
Prioritize outcomes over egos
We commit to progress, not opinions. When goals are unclear, we iterate, learn, and move forward. We ask tough questions kindly, seek evidence, learn from users, research, experiment, and embrace feedback.
