Imagga
Imagga is a Sofia-based computer-vision company that sells image-understanding as an API: automatic tagging, categorization, adult-content moderation, face detection, color extraction, visual similarity, and custom-trained classifiers for domain-specific use cases.

Today it competes with Google Vision, AWS Rekognition, and Clarifai from a Sofia engineering base, and continues to specialize in on-premise and private-cloud deployments that US hyperscaler APIs cannot match.
