Led by CEO Ian Coe, Tonic.ai empowers developers while protecting privacy by enabling companies to create safe, synthetic versions of their data for software testing, model training, and AI implementation. Its platform supports the full spectrum of synthetic data generation and integrates into modern development and ML workflows.
