Kumo team
We are proud to share that KumoRFM has been named a winner of SiliconANGLE Media’s 2026 Tech Innovation CUBEd Awards in the Most Innovative AI-Powered Data Platform category.
The Tech Innovation CUBEd Awards recognize breakthrough technologies that push the boundaries of enterprise innovation and deliver measurable real world impact. KumoRFM was selected for its ability to help organizations turn relational data into production ready machine learning models quickly and reliably, enabling teams to deploy AI that directly improves business outcomes.
Last year, we introduced KumoRFM, the world’s first Relational Foundation Model designed to bring foundation model capabilities to the structured relational data inside the modern data warehouse. While large language models have reshaped how businesses work with text, our focus has been on the operational backbone of every organization, including customers, transactions, products, inventory, and the relationships between them.
Built on Relational Graph Transformers, KumoRFM allows teams to connect their warehouse and instantly generate predictions such as churn, fraud, engagement, or revenue outcomes. It removes the need for task specific training and months of feature engineering, delivering results in seconds with accuracy that matches or surpasses traditional approaches. With KumoRFM, organizations can achieve up to 20 times faster time to value.
“This award reflects the impact our customers are already seeing,” said Vanja Josifovski, CEO of Kumo. “Our goal is to help organizations unlock the predictive power already present in their relational data and move from raw data to production AI much faster.”
The Tech Innovation CUBEd Awards are judged by industry analysts, technologists and practitioners who evaluate entries based on innovation, differentiation and measurable results.
We are honored to be recognized alongside other innovators shaping the future of data and AI.
