Oshen Raises €4.27M to Scale Autonomous Ocean Robot Swarms
Oshen is building for one of the planet’s largest blind spots. Oceans cover most of Earth, yet vast areas are still observed only intermittently because ships, buoys, satellites, and crewed missions cannot provide persistent coverage everywhere. The Plymouth-based company is trying to change that with fleets of small autonomous robots that can stay at sea […]
Nanolope Raises €800K to Turn Buildings Into Thermal Batteries
Nanolope wants the surfaces already surrounding people inside a building to do more than divide rooms. The Berlin deep-tech company has developed retrofit panels that absorb excess heat as indoor temperatures rise and release it again when temperatures fall, effectively turning ceilings, walls and floors into passive thermal storage. Its target is the enormous stock […]
HexSeed Technology Raises £600K for Diamond-Cooled GaN Chips
HexSeed Technology is attacking AI infrastructure from an unusually physical angle: the heat trapped inside the electronics moving power around a data centre. The Scottish startup is developing diamond coatings for gallium nitride, or GaN, power devices, using one of nature’s best thermal conductors to pull heat away from chip hotspots before it limits performance, […]
Callosum Raises $100M to Rethink How AI Uses Compute
Callosum is challenging one of AI infrastructure’s most entrenched assumptions: that better intelligence requires increasingly powerful versions of the same models running across increasingly large fleets of similar chips. The London company is building a different architecture, where complex workloads are broken into smaller tasks and each one is assigned to the model and hardware […]
Zenalyst Raises $300K to Turn Enterprise AI Into Action
Most enterprises already have plenty of software telling them what happened. Zenalyst is building for the next step: giving AI enough access and context to decide what needs attention and carry work forward across the systems businesses already use. Its ZenForce platform connects fragmented ERP, CRM, banking, document and operational data, then uses domain-focused AI […]
Medly Raises $8M for AI-Powered Tutoring Expansion
Medly is building for students who want the kind of personalised academic support traditionally associated with private tutoring, without making that support dependent on what their families can afford. The London-based education platform combines AI tutoring, exam practice, personalised feedback and handwriting recognition to help students prepare for qualifications including GCSEs, A-Levels, IB, AP and […]
Aisel Raises €1.7M for AI-Powered Psychiatry Workflows
Aisel is building for one of psychiatry’s least visible capacity problems: clinicians can spend valuable time reconstructing patient histories, reviewing referrals and completing documentation instead of seeing more patients. The company has built a psychiatry-specific AI platform designed to carry that administrative workload across the full consultation journey, from intake and preparation to clinical notes […]
DiscreteStack Raises €800K to Help Europe Own Its AI Stack
DiscreteStack is building for European businesses that want powerful AI without handing control of their data and infrastructure to an external cloud provider. The Sofia-based company lets enterprises deploy open-weight AI models on infrastructure they choose, including their own data centers, private clouds and fully isolated environments where sensitive information never needs to leave the […]
Kita Raises $4.5M to Make Credit Underwriting Smarter With AI
Kita is building for borrowers whose financial lives do not fit neatly inside a credit bureau. Bank statements, payslips, invoices, e-wallet records and photographed documents can contain the evidence lenders need, yet reviewing them manually can turn a credit decision into days or weeks of paperwork. Kita is building an AI-native underwriting stack that converts […]
Aisot Raises CHF 2M to Scale AI Portfolio Intelligence
Zurich-based Aisot Technologies has built its business around that filtering problem. The ETH Zurich spin-off combines quantitative finance, machine learning and LLM-based news sentiment analysis to help asset managers, wealth managers and family offices turn large volumes of market information into portfolio decisions. The company has now closed a CHF 2 million seed extension, backed […]
Cytix Raises $7M as AI Coding Turns Every Software Change Into a Security Decision
Years before AI coding agents began accelerating software development, security already had a timing problem. Cytix co-founder Thomas Ballin once worked inside a large bank where a software change could move through developers, project managers, and security reviews before reaching a penetration-testing team. The process was thorough, but it belonged to a world where code […]
STRGY AI Raises €1M to Turn Corporate Strategy Into a Living System
A company can spend weeks defining its strategy and still lose sight of it once everyday work takes over. Priorities spread across teams, reporting arrives in cycles, and leadership may discover only weeks later that execution has drifted from the plan. Helsinki-based STRGY AI is building around that blind spot, turning strategy from a periodic […]
