Streetbeat Raises $15 mn
Streetbeat, led by CEO Damián Scavo, has raised $15 million in a Series A round led by CDP Venture Capital’s AI Fund (with TTV Capital, Monte Carlo Capital and 3Lines VC) to scale its AI-powered trading platform for wealth managers across 15+ countries. The platform—used by 4,000 advisors—leverages agentic AI to automate investing, risk management and portfolio analysis, allowing advisors to service five times more clients and potentially boost AUM by up to 15 percent per year. Streetbeat’s proprietary AI delivers 94.78 percent accuracy and 30 percent better cost-efficiency than competitors.
Clerq Secures $21 mn
Clerq, a fintech payments platform targeting high-ticket transactions, has secured $21 million in funding – including a $12 million Series A led by 645 Ventures alongside FirstMark, Fika, Commerce Ventures and Dash Fund – to expand its account-to-account payments solution across underserved large-ticket verticals (automotive, home & office, powersports). Clerq replaces traditional manual payment methods (checks, wires) and high-fee card processing with friction-reduced, margin-protecting flows, having achieved 6× revenue growth over the past year.
VitVio Secures $8 mn
VitVio, founded by CEO Thomas Knox (and co-founders Dr. Peter Rennert, Maks Kozarzewski & Aleks Pajewski), raised $8 million in an oversubscribed seed round (led by Bek Ventures with LDV Capital and others) to commercialise its AI-powered ambient sensing platform that digitises operating rooms (ORs) in 3D, logs surgical phases, coordinates staff and predicts case completion in real time. With ORs accounting for ~40 percent of hospital costs and $1.4 m per OR in annual avoidable cost, VitVio aims to reduce waste, improve utilization and ease administrative burden on clinical teams.
Darwin AI Raises $15 mn
Darwin AI, co-founded by CEO Noam Maital, secured $15 million in a Series A funding round led by Insight Partners (with UpWest and Resolute Ventures) to help government agencies build AI solutions responsibly and at scale. Their platforms—Darwin Govern (for policy, records, data governance) and LaunchPad (agentic workflows)—address the 60 percent of AI usage in public agencies that occurs via unsupervised “shadow AI”. The investment supports product development, deployment and growth of policy & training teams across U.S. states including Texas, California and Illinois.
Tensormesh Raises $4.5 mn
Tensormesh, led by Founder & CEO Junchen Jiang, emerged from stealth with $4.5 million in seed funding led by Laude Ventures to commercialise its enterprise AI inference optimisation platform. Built on the open-source LMCache project from University of Chicago/UC Berkeley/CMU teams, Tensormesh’s tech eliminates redundant computation to reduce latency and GPU cost by up to 10×, enabling enterprises to run AI inference on-prem or in cloud with full control of data and infrastructure
