Yangzhou Wujie Matrix Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Wujie Matrix") recently completed over ten million yuan in angel round financing with a valuation exceeding one billion yuan, with investment from Lihe Financial. Established in 2024, Wujie Matrix is an artificial intelligence startup whose core mission is to create an "AI Mentor" that integrates multimodal technology, efficient reasoning, reliability, and emotional interaction, aiming to provide students with technological skills while also offering personalized emotional support.
Dr. Cui Sen, the founder, is an outstanding graduate of Tsinghua University, having studied in the Qian Xuesen class under the guidance of Academician Zheng Quanshui from the Chinese Academy of Sciences. During his doctoral studies, he focused on reliable artificial intelligence and large model fields. He stated that AI technology will become a core tool for every organization and individual to face challenges in the future, and the team aims to transform AI into a fundamental thinking tool accessible to everyone.
Currently, Wujie Matrix's first product is under development and is expected to be launched in mid-2025. Dr. Cui noted that the practical application of large AI models typically involves the integration of multiple technologies rather than relying on a single model. For example, their retrogressive retrieval-enhanced generation technology combines real-time retrieval and reasoning, not only improving retrieval efficiency and accuracy but also overcoming the limitations of traditional retrieval in information timeliness, achieving millisecond-level responses.
Although Wujie Matrix has not been established for long, its team members have been at the forefront of AI innovation since 2016, including multimodal, meta-learning, and efficient reasoning for large models, accumulating rich industry experience. The core members of the team are all Ph.D. graduates from Tsinghua University in the AI field, with years of research experience in reliable AI, large models, intelligent agents, and emotional computing.
Dr. Cui emphasized that the education model is changing; traditional exam-oriented education can no longer meet the needs of talent development, and the status of technology education is increasingly rising. According to predictions from iResearch Consulting and Duojing Education, the domestic technology education market is expected to grow at nearly 20% over the next five years, reaching a scale close to one hundred billion yuan.
Wujie Matrix's next step is to increase investment in technological research and development, continue to track cutting-edge large model technologies, accelerate the functional optimization of the AI Mentor product, and explore more application scenarios, building a diversified application ecosystem with more partners.
