๐๐ถ ๐๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐๐ป๐ถ๐๐,
We are excited to share with you this wonderful news: we completed our $5m Seed Funding round last month to help developers build AI / Data full-stack apps.
๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐ง๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฝ๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐
A few years back, Albert and I after years of heading AI projects for large organizations, decided that it was time to transition to full Python development and to stop using traditional Java, JS, .Net stacks, etc.
We had a pretty clear idea of what features we were looking for, but to our surprise, we couldnโt find them amongst the flurry of existing Python packages.
Our mission was straightforward yet ambitious: to provide the missing bricks that prevent so many AI/Data pilots from making it into a successful deployed project.
In particular, we wanted to bring the end-user back into the โAI/Dataโ picture. I am still amazed today to see how little is mentioned about the end-user: from Data Scientists to Data Engineers, it is all about data flows, exposing algorithms, etc? No mention about how a human being is going to interact with AI/Data modelsโฆ We wanted to change all that!
So we decided to build Taipyโฆ
๐ง๐ฎ๐ถ๐ฝ๐ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐ฏ๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ๐:
A powerful Interactive front-end Application builder yet very simple to learn/use.
โScenariosโ which is the possibility for the end-user (and the data scientist as well) to interact with data and algorithms easily.
In 2022, we first launched Taipy as an open-source project (do check out our GitHub Page), followed by the Enterprise version later that year.
Thanks to the overwhelming support and interest from this amazing community, our GitHub project not only trending but also saw a phenomenal rise in popularity, growing from 100 to over 3,000 stars in a few weeks! We are beyond grateful for your support and enthusiasm.
Feel free to โญ the Taipy repository
I would also like to thank our early corporate adopters, who are so important in validating and testing a new technology. Specials thanks to McDonaldโs, KnowledgeTouch, Groupe Les Mousquetaires, Total Energies, Textil Apparel Limited, IFP-EN, etc.

We recently released:
- Taipy Cloud to allow community users to deploy, host, and share their apps with the rest of the world
- Important Backend features: Taipy Studio, Application Versioning, Tasks Scheduling, Python API, Visual Component for Scenario Management, a new CLI, and more...
- On the Front-end side: a new Style Kit, a default set of stylesheet templates for instant application creation, new charts...
- TalkToTaipy, the LLM-based application to explore datasets using only natural languages

This significant investment allows us to continue our full-time commitment to improving Taipy. This funding is also a crucial step towards realizing our vision, positioning Taipy as the leading platform for Python AI/Data projects.

A fantastic release coming up soon (this quarter) with major new functionalities:
- A brand new No-Code GUI Designer: you will be able to build your GUI page with no coding! Sorry for the spoiler but this new Designer is a killer!
- Distributed Computing: Execution on remote clusters for parallel scenario/task execution.
- Integration with major Platforms: like Databricks, Dataiku, etc.
And all this, while staying true to our open-source roots!
๐ข๐ป ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐ฐ๐ผ๐บ๐บ๐๐ป๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐๐ถ๐ฑ๐ฒ:
- Weโre now present on several community platforms: Discord, LinkedIn, X, and YouTube.
- We sponsored several events: conferences (PyData, Pycon, ODSC...), hackathons, meetups, webinarsโฆ
- We also plan to start regular Taipy Tech-Talks soon. .
And yes, all of this in open source!
We're always eager to hear from you, so if there's something you think Taipy could improve on or add, let us know. Your input is invaluable in shaping our roadmap.
Thank you, everyone, for your support. We couldn't have reached this milestone without you!
