Greenlite AI has secured $15m in a Series A funding round aimed at expanding its trusted AI workforce for combating financial crime.
The round was backed by Greylock, Thomson Reuters Ventures, and Canvas Ventures, with the latest raise bringing Greenlite AI’s total capital secured to $20m.
Greenlite AI offers AI agents purpose-built for high-stakes compliance tasks. Its platform is used by OCC-regulated banks, SEC-regulated broker-dealers, and Fortune 500 companies to automate key processes such as Know Your Customer (KYC), Anti-Money Laundering (AML), and sanctions compliance. Among its clients are Ramp, Mercury, Betterment, Gusto, RSM UK, and several U.S. banks.
The fresh capital will support the expansion of Greenlite AI’s proprietary Trust Infrastructure, which embeds U.S. federal banking regulations into its AI agents. The company also plans to develop new agent archetypes, grow its engineering and go-to-market teams, and deepen its presence within the regulatory landscape.
Greenlite AI’s platform has seen adoption beyond direct deployments, with consulting and accounting firms now using its agents to support compliance services for financial clients. These agents perform end-to-end workflows such as alert triage and transaction monitoring, helping institutions cut review times and improve accuracy. One FinTech reportedly reduced alert handling by 90%, while a broker-dealer expanded operations across 12 markets using Greenlite’s AI.
Greenlite AI CEO and co-founder Will Lawrence said, “With regulatory pressure mounting and margins tightening, compliance teams can’t keep throwing headcount at the problem. They need automation that’s not just powerful, but accountable. That’s exactly what Greenlite AI delivers — AI agents built on a foundation of regulatory trust, ready to take on the front lines of financial crime and compliance.”
Greylock partner and board member Seth Rosenberg added, “Greenlite AI’s agents are reducing the manual burden on compliance teams, and their unparalleled accuracy is helping organisations scale without adding headcount.”
Canvas Prime partner Justin Pirzadeh noted, “What sets Greenlite AI apart is their focus on the messy middle, the unclear and time-consuming compliance cases that don’t fit neatly into checkboxes.”
Tim Mayopoulos, Greenlite AI angel investor and former CEO of Fannie Mae, said, “Complex compliance issues are in many ways big data problems, and AI will enable financial institutions to fulfill their regulatory obligations not only more efficiently, but importantly, more effectively.”
Elsewhere, TrustCloud, a security assurance platform serving hybrid enterprises, has announced the successful close of a $15m strategic funding round.
The investment was led by ServiceNow Ventures and included participation from Cisco Investments, Presidio Ventures, OpenView Venture Partners, Tola Capital, and existing backers.
The company operates in the FinTech and cybersecurity sectors, offering a purpose-built platform designed to modernise governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) workflows for enterprise chief information security officers (CISOs). TrustCloud’s AI technology integrates data across IT, business, and security systems, enabling organisations to reduce manual workloads, lower financial risk, and boost compliance efficiency.
Proceeds from the round will be used to accelerate TrustCloud’s enterprise go-to-market and channel operations. A key focus will be enhancing its AI capabilities to provide a unified view of security risk for CISOs across the entire IT landscape.
