Sooth Labs develops AI systems for long-horizon forecasting of geopolitical and market events and has positioned those systems for use in sectors such as finance, defense, insurance, and real estate. The company was founded by Chuck Hoover, Yaser Sheikh and Ruslan Salakhutdinov, all of whom previously worked at Meta and are known as AI researchers or executives. Sooth Labs emerged from stealth concurrent with its announced funding round and is headquartered in New York. It raised roughly $50 million in the financing led by Felicis Ventures and at an estimated $335 million valuation. The startup counts prominent AI figures Yann LeCun and Jeff Dean among its backers, and Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth serves as an advisor. Public reporting focuses on the company’s long-horizon forecasting focus and its investor profile rather than detailed product metrics or revenue figures.
