GPTZero, a leading platform for AI-generated content detection and responsible AI adoption, announced it had raised $10 million in Series A funding led by Footwork VC with participation from Reach Capital, Uncork, Neo, Alt Capital, and the former CEOs of Reuters and The New York Times.
This funding round will enable GPTZero to redefine the interaction between humans and AI. This allows individuals, not AI companies, to measure and define the application of artificial intelligence on their terms.
GPTZero’s roadmap includes launching and developing:
1.) Hallucination detection – A core technology for ensuring the integrity of AI-generated content
2.) AI Sources – Identify the training data behind LLM outputs to judge how trustworthy they are and avoid reproducing copyrighted text
GPTZero Docs – A new editor platform with an embedded AI that records and cites its AI usage. It includes education-specific functionality around limiting and watermarking AI outputs.
KEY QUOTES:
“As we spent time with the GPTZero team, we became more and more excited by what we learned. Their north star, in building an independent layer to measure and preserve authentic content on the internet, will only grow in importance in the years to come.”
- Nikhil Basu Trivedi at Footwork
“We have been extremely fortunate to support a community of millions in identifying AI. Now we are committed to empowering teachers, students, writers, readers, and organizations to transparently interact with AI.”
- CEO Edward Tian
