Explorium.ai is an Israeli software company headquartered in Tel Aviv-Yafo. The company develops software for integrating and harmonizing external business-to-business data used in analytics, [artificial intelligence](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/artificial-intelligence) and [machine learning](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/machine-learning) workflows. Its platform consolidates data from third-party sources and exposes it through application programming interfaces and data-integration tools, enabling enterprises to enrich internal datasets with external information for predictive modeling and decision-making.

## History

Explorium was founded in 2017 in Tel Aviv by Maor Shlomo, Omer Har, and Or Tamir. The three founders had previously worked on large-scale data mining and optimization systems at ironSource, Natural Intelligence, and Unit 8200 of the Israel Defense Forces. In September 2019, the company emerged from stealth and announced combined funding of approximately US$19.1 million, including a US$3.6 million seed round led by Emerge with participation from F2 Capital, and a US$15.5 million Series A round led by Zeev Ventures.

In July 2020, Explorium raised a US$31 million Series B round led by Zeev Ventures, with participation from Dynamic Loop Capital, Emerge, 01 Advisors, and F2 Capital, bringing total funding to US$50 million. In May 2021, the company raised a US$75 million Series C round led by Insight Partners, with participation from Zeev Ventures, Emerge, F2 Venture Capital, 01 Advisors, Dynamic Loop Capital, Fort Ross Ventures, and Vintage Investment Partners, bringing total funding to approximately US$127 million.

Co-founder Maor Shlomo left Explorium in 2023, and co-founder Omer Har became chief executive officer.

## Products and Technology

Explorium develops software for integrating and enriching external business data used in analytics, artificial intelligence, and machine-learning workflows. The platform consolidates data from third-party sources and exposes it through application programming interfaces and data-integration tools. According to ISG Software Research, the platform provides searchable external-data catalogues, integration with internal enterprise data systems, and data-enrichment functions for analytics and artificial intelligence applications.

The platform is designed to address the challenge of feature engineering in machine learning by automatically discovering and connecting relevant external datasets. This approach supports [generative AI](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/generative-ai) and [large language model](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/large-language-model) applications that require diverse, high-quality data for training and fine-tuning. The company's technology aligns with broader trends in [deep learning](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/deep-learning) and [neural network](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/neural-network) development, where data quality and breadth are critical factors.

In December 2021, Explorium's external-data offering was added to the Snowflake Data Marketplace, expanding its reach to users of the Snowflake cloud data platform. Reported enterprise customers have included PepsiCo, BlueVine, Melio, and GlassesUSA.

## Recognition

Explorium was included in a 2021 Forbes Israel feature on Israeli companies considered potential future unicorns. In 2022, the company was listed as a sample vendor in several Gartner Hype Cycle and Emerging Tech Impact Radar reports related to external data and artificial intelligence technologies. These recognitions highlighted the company's position in the emerging field of external data platforms and their integration with AI workflows.

## Operations

Explorium is headquartered in Tel Aviv-Yafo and has reported operations in the United States and Ukraine. Reported employee headcount reached approximately 130 in 2021. The company's operations span research and development, sales, and customer support across these regions. As of 2024, the company continues to operate in the competitive landscape of data integration and AI infrastructure, alongside other players in the [cloud computing](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/amazon-web-services) and [cloud platform](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/google-cloud) ecosystems.

## Market Context

The external data platform market in which Explorium operates has grown alongside the broader adoption of [AI](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/artificial-intelligence) and machine learning in enterprise settings. Companies increasingly require access to diverse external datasets - such as demographic, economic, weather, and market data - to improve model accuracy and business outcomes. Explorium's approach of automating data discovery and integration differentiates it from traditional data management tools, positioning it within the larger trend of [data augmentation](https://www.wikiprompt.org/wiki/data-augmentation) and feature engineering automation in machine learning pipelines.
