Isotopes AI has launched from stealth with a $20 million seed round to solve one of business analytics’ toughest challenges: giving decision-makers direct access to data without relying on engineers. Its AI agent, Aidnn, can pull information from sources like finance apps, ERP, CRM, and cloud storage, then clean, contextualize, and generate reports in natural language.
The startup is led by Hortonworks co-founder Arun Murthy, alongside Prasanth Jayachandran and Gopal Vijayaraghavan, all veterans of the Hadoop era. Murthy, who also served as CTO at Scale AI, says Aidnn goes beyond simple chatbots by showing reasoning steps, pointing out anomalies, and making recommendations.

Despite its advanced design and 10 patent applications, Isotopes faces stiff competition from incumbents like Salesforce’s Tableau and startups such as WisdomAI. The company, however, promises customers that their data won’t be shared with model makers during deployment.
