Clearspeed has secured $60m in Series D funding to accelerate the deployment of its AI-powered voice risk assessment platform.
This latest round lifts the company’s total capital raised to $110m and was led by Align Private Capital, with IronGate Capital Advisors, Bravo Victor Venture Capital, and KBW Ventures also participating.
Multi-round investor General David H. Petraeus (US Army, Ret.) remains on board, and Anna Nekoranec, co-founder and CEO of Align Private Capital, will join Clearspeed’s Board of Directors.
Clearspeed’s cutting-edge voice analytics technology addresses the growing need for efficient, scalable solutions in complex regulatory environments. It enables organisations to rapidly identify and mitigate fraud, insider threats, and other risks, supporting compliance and security requirements across sectors such as government, defence, and financial services.
The fresh capital will fund Clearspeed’s continued expansion in markets where compliance and trust are critical. The company plans to innovate further and extend its global reach, aiming to maintain its edge in fast-evolving regulatory landscapes.
In insurance and government applications, Clearspeed has delivered striking outcomes, including a 30X return on investment by streamlining early risk detection during underwriting and claims processing. Zurich Insurance, which serves over 75 million customers worldwide, has used Clearspeed’s solution to accelerate claims payments and improve customer relief.
Anna Nekoranec said, “Clearspeed has demonstrated true dual-use potential—with scalable commercial results and meaningful impact in high-stakes environments. It’s rare to see a solution that can reduce fraud, mitigate security threats, and save significant costs without creating friction for the end user. This is the innovation needed to build smarter, more human-centered systems of trust.”
Scott Clayton, head of claims fraud at Zurich Insurance, added, “We see Clearspeed as a powerful complement to an insurer’s multi-layered global risk strategy—offering a streamlined, trust-building experience for customers while helping to make more confident decisions and combat increasingly complex fraud.”
General David H. Petraeus (US Army, Ret.) said, “As security threats evolve, so must the solutions designed to counter them. Clearspeed’s AI-enabled voice analytics delivers outsized value for personnel vetting, insider threat mitigation, and enterprise security—where building trust quickly is paramount.”
Alex Martin, co-founder and CEO of Clearspeed, commented, “This investment propels Clearspeed into a bold new chapter. We’re doubling down on the markets where trust and speed matter most—government, defense, insurance, banking—and expanding globally to meet the growing demand for secure, high-integrity screening. We’re investing in our teams, accelerating innovation, and ensuring our technology stays ahead—not just to grow, but to help organisations worldwide realise the strategic advantage of rapidly establishing trust.”
Prior to this Series D, Clearspeed had raised $50m, bringing total funding to $110m.
