AI research lab for retrieval

Full description — before

We make it easy for developers to connect data to their LLM apps. Instead of spending months on integrations and retrieval pipelines, Reworkd's AgentGPT added our button in an afternoon and let thousands of people connect their Notion, email and Drive instantly. Every single AI company is building data retrieval. Currently, they're doing this from scratch – we don't think they should have to. Just like OpenAI made working with LLMs as simple as an API call, SID makes it easy for every AI company to access data the same way.

SID is an AI research lab based in San Francisco. We train models that can retrieve and reason over any data source.

Summary

SID shifted from being an infrastructure tool for developers to connect data sources to LLM-powered apps (think middleware/product for developers) to positioning itself as an AI research lab training retrieval and reasoning models. While there is some thematic continuity (data retrieval/AI), this is a meaningful product change from a developer SaaS tool to a core model/research provider.
