Reducto
Building the ingestion layer to connect human data with machines
About Reducto
Reducto is a Series B team in San Francisco, founded in 2023 by Adit Abraham (CEO) and Raunak Chowdhuri (CTO), who met at MIT. Chowdhuri had published computer vision papers with over 100 citations before finishing high school. The company went through YC Winter 2024 and has raised $108M from a16z, Benchmark, First Round, BoxGroup, and YC.
The machine learning team is eight people and reports to the CTO. It runs a mix of in-house models and larger open-source ones, and an ML tech lead role is expected to be filled around the new year. Engineering is in the office five days a week near Union Square and Market, which is intentional at this stage.
Culture signals that hold across every role here: high agency and self-direction, no settling for 90%, and attention to detail that matters concretely. In document parsing a comma versus a period turns $20,000 into 20.000, so sloppy work is a real red flag. Engineers are expected to hold technical conversations with enterprise customers, not just stay in the code.
