Who We Are

At Gretel, we're building the platform that developers and data scientists trust for safe, AI-ready data. Our platform combines differential privacy with state-of-the-art AI to generate synthetic data across multiple modalities, whether starting from your own unique data or creating entirely new datasets from prompts. We enable organizations to unlock sensitive data for AI development and analytics.
