AI is no longer just a tool.
It will change how your company operates.

Lokos identifies the highest-value pain points in your business and uses the latest AI tools to automate the processes around them. For specialized AI work, we move faster and are more cost-effective than building the same capability through internal hiring.

The founder

Lokos was founded by Diego Casabuena. He earned a bachelor's degree from NYU with majors in Computer Science and Economics. At NYU, he was a Phi Beta Kappa member and Presidential Honors Scholar. He completed his honors thesis, “Speaking of BERT,” under Rob Fergus and trained as a researcher at the NYU Center for Data Science during the first wave of modern language model work.

Before Lokos, Diego led machine learning at Podz, where his fine-tuned podcast transcription models became the world's first audio feed and helped lead to Podz's acquisition by Spotify. Over three years at Spotify, he progressed to Senior Machine Learning Engineer and shipped podcast previews, the audio-visual translation system that translated Lex Fridman and others, and contributed to Spotify DJ and Auto-Mix.

His work spans speaker diarization, language modeling, clustering, drone calibration, large-scale ML engineering, and economic commentary. Before Lokos, he also co-founded technology companies in the United States and Spain, giving him experience applying technical research inside early-stage businesses.
