About Obviously AI
Obviously AI is a no-code machine learning platform founded in 2018 in Berkeley, California by Nirman Dave and Tapojit Debnath Tapu, both Hampshire College graduates. The platform enables non-technical users to build predictive models from tabular data for use cases like churn prediction and lead scoring.
The product targets business analysts and operations teams who want data science insights without needing to write code. The company now also operates under the Zams brand.
Obviously AI has raised approximately $9.75 million across seed rounds from UTEC, TMV, B Capital, and Arka Venture Labs.

MonkeyLearn focuses specifically on no-code text classification and sentiment analysis, a narrower slice than Obviously AIs general tabular-data predictive modeling.
Akkio, backed by Bain Capital Ventures, targets the same no-code predictive-modeling niche for SMB and marketing teams, the closest like-for-like alternative to Obviously AI.
BigML offers a more technical, API-first machine-learning platform aimed at developers, contrasting with Obviously AIs spreadsheet-upload, no-code positioning.
