About Novi

Novi Labs is a rapidly growing venture-backed artificial intelligence-driven SaaS company headquartered in Austin, Texas. Our mission is to improve the economic outcomes of our customers' energy investments. The Oil & Gas sector has historically struggled to derive actionable insights from its vast amounts of data. Novi was founded by industry experts, data scientists, and experienced software engineers to help solve this problem. Our expertise in building scalable, data-driven analytical applications and datasets positions us exceptionally well to help customers optimize multi-billion-dollar annual capital investments. Novi's customers include innovative Oil & Gas operators, hedge funds, research institutions, royalty buyers, and energy investors. Collectively, they invest hundreds of billions of dollars in capital annually to find, develop, and capitalize energy assets. Novi improves outcomes for these investments through applied artificial intelligence and superior data, reducing risk through data-driven optimization. We help our clients choose the best way to invest their capital. We pride ourselves on attracting great talent by offering a challenging, collaborative, and rewarding work environment. We have a track record of delivering effective solutions to challenging problems and a reputation for building great software that our users love.
