AI One
AI One is a New York-based enterprise software company that builds an Enterprise Context Management (ECM) platform - a lightweight layer that sits beneath enterprise AI and agentic applications. Rather than forcing companies to migrate data into a new lake or warehouse first, AI One connects directly to the systems large organizations already run (Salesforce, Workday, on-premise databases, APIs and documents), resolves entities across fragmented data, and enforces security and permissions so AI operates with real business context instead of guessing. Founded in 2024 by Conor Twomey and Fergus Keenan, the company targets Fortune 500 firms in financial services, healthcare, insurance, energy and private equity, and raised $11M total including a $7M Series A led by Vestigo Ventures.
Cape.ai
Cape.ai (formerly Cape Privacy) is a New York-based enterprise AI company building an agentic automation platform purpose-built for financial services. Founded in 2018 by Che Wijesinghe and Gavin Uhma, Cape lets banks, asset managers and insurers automate document-heavy back-office work - enhanced due diligence, SOC-report and third-party risk analysis, KYC/AML onboarding and regulatory reporting - using AI agents that are fully cited, auditable and deployable on-premise or in a private cloud so sensitive data never leaves the customer's environment.
Contextual AI
Contextual AI is a Mountain View enterprise AI company that builds a context engineering platform for production-grade, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) agents. Founded in 2023 by RAG co-inventor Douwe Kiela and Amanpreet Singh, it packages retrieval, reranking and grounded language models into an end-to-end system that lets regulated enterprises deploy accurate, source-grounded AI on their own documents. The company has raised $100M from backers including Greycroft, Nvidia, Snowflake, HSBC and Bezos Expeditions, and counts Qualcomm and HSBC among its users.
Articul8 AI
Articul8 AI is a Santa Clara-based enterprise generative AI company, spun out of Intel in January 2024, that builds domain-specific GenAI systems for regulated and mission-critical industries such as energy, manufacturing, semiconductors, aerospace, and financial services. Its flagship ModelMesh platform acts as an autonomous 'agent of agents' that orchestrates specialized models on a customer's own data with full auditability and security. The company reached a valuation above $500 million within two years of launch and serves customers including Hitachi Energy, Franklin Templeton, AWS, and Intel.
Corvic AI
Corvic AI is a Mountain View startup building an Intelligence Composition Platform - the logic layer that turns messy, multi-structured enterprise data (PDFs, tables, sensor logs, images, time series) into reliable, production-ready AI outcomes without bespoke pipeline engineering. Founded in 2023 by engineers from Intel, Katana Graph, and Determined AI, it uses proprietary techniques like Mixture of Spaces embeddings and agentic, auditable orchestration to deliver explainable enterprise intelligence for manufacturing, industrial, financial services, and life sciences customers.
Flair Labs
Flair Labs builds lifelike voice AI 'digital workers' for mortgage and real estate teams. Spun out of Stanford's AI lab and backed by Y Combinator, its agents answer, qualify, follow up with, and book borrowers across voice, SMS, and email around the clock, aiming to handle the repetitive conversational work that keeps loan officers off the phones and let humans focus on judgment, empathy, and expertise.
Percepta
Percepta is a New York-based AI transformation company, wholly owned and incubated by venture firm General Catalyst, that embeds teams of researchers, engineers, and product managers directly inside large enterprises to move them past AI pilots and into AI-native operations. Founded in 2025 by CEO Hirsh Jain (a former Palantir SVP) and General Catalyst's Hemant Taneja, the company pairs applied engineering with a frontier research lab to rebuild core workflows in healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and government - working closely with founding partners Anthropic and AWS.
Lyzr AI
Lyzr AI is an enterprise agent-infrastructure company that helps banks, insurers, and other regulated organizations move AI agents from proof-of-concept to production. Its open-core Agent Framework bakes Safe AI and Responsible AI modules into the core architecture, while products like Agent Studio and a roster of named agents (Jazon the AI SDR, Skott the AI marketer) let teams build, govern, and deploy autonomous agents inside their own firewall or VPC. Backed by Accenture and valued at $250M, Lyzr positions itself as the trusted layer between large language models and the compliance-bound enterprise.
Unframe
Unframe is a managed AI delivery platform for enterprises that turns critical business operations into production-ready AI workflows in days, not quarters. Built by the former Noname Security team, the company packages agent orchestration, a knowledge fabric, data connectivity and modular building blocks into a single OS for production AI - and bills only for outcomes that ship.
