Pre-Seed
£3.0M

Fly Ventures led the pre-seed round, which will fund product depth and pilot launches.

"Once memory becomes an input to workflows, automation, or system decisions, approximate recall is not enough. We think memory has to become structured, inspectable, and reliable by design."
— Alex Petrov, Founder
Pre-Seed
£1.9M

Connect Ventures led the pre-seed round as the company emerged from stealth.

"While the TMS is the system of record for our customers, many of the conversations, decisions and data that drive freight never make it inside. That missing information is where revenue is lost and service breaks down. Bridging that gap is the only way to unlock real automation and enable the revenue growth and operational resilience forwarders need in today's market. Rates and contracts underpin freight forwarding, and are especially pertinent in the current environment. Starting here enables the biggest commercial impact for our customers while building the core grounding for future automation for our customers."
— Dan Bailey, Principal
Series C
$27.0M

The financing round will fund product enhancements and accelerate the company footprint across Europe.

"Novisto was created to address the data challenges of sustainability reporting by applying modern technology and data discipline to the sustainability sector. This initiative was driven by the recognition of a market need to bring digital transformation to the sustainability function. The market demands transparent, accurate, and decision-grade sustainability information."
— Charles Assaf, CEO and co-founder
Seed

The seed round was co-led by Kindred Capital, NATO Innovation Fund, and Oxford Science Enterprises.

"In today’s AI race, the limitations of existing hardware – nearly all of which is provided by a single company – represent the biggest barrier to better performance, reduced cost, and wider adoption. Fractile’s approach supercharges inference, delivering astonishing improvements in terms of speed and cost. This is more than just a speed-up – changing the performance point for inference allows us to explore completely new ways to use today’s leading AI models to solve the world’s most complex problems. We’re thrilled to have raised our funding from investors with a wealth of experience in the AI and chip industries, continue to grow our world-class team and further our technological development and partnerships."
