Ishiki Labs is founded by Amit Yadav and Robert Xu - two ex-Meta coworkers. Amit has a PhD in AI from Purdue and was a research scientist at Meta while Robert has extensive experience building orchestration and inference systems for real time multimodal AI. They worked together on the RayBan Meta assistant.

Together, they have the experience and background to tackle the hard problems of reaching human-level intelligence in multimodal AI, which requires solving the problems between the seams.
