About us

Plato is building the AI operating system for distribution. We closed a $14.5M seed round backed by Atomico and Cherry Ventures, and we're growing fast. Our customers are mid-market distributors who've never been exposed to cutting-edge AI software - we're changing this, starting with sales.

We're a small, high-conviction team of engineers and operators. Decisions get made fast, the work is real, and there's no hiding behind the process.
