ARTICUL8 AI RAISES SERIES B, TARGETS US$70 MLN

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 8 (Bernama) -- Articul8 AI Inc has closed the first tranche of its oversubscribed Series B financing, positioning the enterprise generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) software company for its next phase of global expansion.

The round was led by Adara Ventures, with participation from NXC Corporation, Aditya Birla Ventures, and other strategic investors. A final Series B closing is expected in the first quarter of 2026 as the company selectively adds long-term partners.

The Series B is expected to raise approximately US$70 million upon completion, lifting Articul8’s valuation to more than US$500 million, representing a five-fold increase from its Series A in less than two years. Strategic backers include DigitalBridge and Intel. (US$1=RM4.05)

In a statement, Articul8 Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Arun Subramaniyan said the funding reflects growing confidence among customers and investors in the company’s approach to enterprise AI, where trust, precision, and accountability are critical.

Since its launch less than two years ago, Articul8 has recorded strong commercial traction, surpassing US$90 million in total contract value, driven by accelerating enterprise demand for a secure, domain-specific GenAI platform.

Articul8’s full-stack platform, powered by its proprietary ModelMesh reasoning engine, enables enterprises to deploy and operate GenAI applications entirely within their own security perimeters, delivering contextualised and traceable outcomes in regulated environments.

The platform has consistently outperformed general-purpose large language models in specialised enterprise use cases, supported by recent advances in table-understanding capabilities and domain-specific agents designed to reason over structured data.

Proceeds from the Series B will be used to accelerate global expansion, advance proprietary reasoning technology, and support growing enterprise deployments across North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
