The round was led by Prosus Ventures to support team expansion across international markets.

"Rebranding to Clarity is about exactly that, bringing more clarity to customer experience. We want AI to be simple, useful, and safe. A lot of tools in the market cut corners, and that doesn’t work in industries where mistakes aren’t an option. From day one we built Clarity to be compliant, secure, and easy to roll out. This new funding lets us keep improving the tech and building the right partnerships so companies can finally modernize customer operations with confidence."
— Abed Kasaji, Co-founder & CEO
Series A
$100M

The financing was co-led by New Enterprise Associates and Temasek with participation from a broad group of strategic investors.

"Next-generation AI compute, clean air and water and sustainable energy – these multi-billion-dollar global challenges share a common barrier: materials. CuspAI’s mission is to change that. In just a year, we’ve gone from concept to partnerships with world leaders in automotive, semiconductors, energy, and climate."
— Chad Edwards, Co-founder
Series B
£18.6M

The Series B round attracted backing from a mix of new and existing institutional investors.

"The entry of new major investors, alongside the continued support of those who have already believed in our transformative approach, is a powerful endorsement of the strength and scalability of our model. Closing a Series B round in today's market is a significant achievement—and marks the beginning of a new growth phase."
— Stiven Muccioli, Founder and CEO
Series A
£30.0M

The Series A round was led by Oxford Science Enterprises and Braavos Investment Advisers to support company expansion.

"Through its unique approach, developed by some of the world’s best minds in the quantum space, Oxford Ionics is laying the foundations to finally make quantum computing a scalable, integrable and viable option. Building on more than a decade at the forefront of this sector, Chris, Tom and the team have been able to demonstrate, time and again, that their work in the lab can, and will, extend to the real world and we’re thrilled to be joining them on this journey."
