Elemental Cognition (EC) is the next wave of enterprise AI that delivers the reliability, accuracy, and transparency businesses need. EC combines the fluency of large language models with the rigor of formal reasoning to create a neuro-symbolic AI architecture that can solve complex problems when businesses can’t afford to be wrong. EC’s approach combines different AI strategies in a novel architecture that acquires and reasons over human-readable knowledge to solve problems collaboratively and dynamically. The result is more transparent and cost- effective delivery of expert problem-solving intelligence into conversational and discovery applications.

EC was founded in 2015 by Dr. David Ferrucci, the renowned AI researcher and inventor of IBM’s breakthrough Watson technology, to build more holistic AI that thinks before it talks. EC technology can be used across industries and use cases. Primary targets are Healthcare / Life Science, Investment Management, Intelligence, Logistics & Scheduling, and Contact Centers.
