Prosper Global's VERA multi-agent AI tool for humanitarian research
Overview
Prosper Global, formerly Mercy Corps, describes VERA, a multi-agent research engine built on Cloudera AI Studios that runs on Amazon Web Services and uses Anthropic models.
The company says VERA, launched in June, also runs in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Ukraine.
In Sudan, VERA cut desk research for an agricultural report from five or six days to two and saved about $1,500, according to Aaron Eubank, Prosper Global's director of data science. Eubank says the output is a starting point for analysts rather than a final report.
