Using publicly available information we constructed an analysis to help you get a feel for this speaker before deciding to attend their session.
Max Rumpf is the CEO and co-founder of SID.ai, an AI research lab building specialized retrieval models — most recently SID-1, which matches GPT-5.1 and beats Gemini 3 Pro and Sonnet 4.5 on document-retrieval benchmarks at roughly 24x lower latency and far lower cost per query. Attendees interested in the RL training behind purpose-built retrieval models, or in achieving frontier-level retrieval results without frontier-scale budgets, will find him a credible practitioner voice.
