A four -year -old Swiss startup has made significant changes in order to take advantage of the rapidly growing agent AI movement.
Unique said on Thursday that it raised $ 30 million in a series A funding, led by DN Capital and Commerzventures based in London, a commerit derivative of Commerzbank in Germany.
“Agent AI” is one of the biggest trends in the current technology, but there is no definition of what AI agent is actually. The core basic concept is that the AI agent should make much more possible than a simple chatbot. It is necessary to be able to perform all the tasks and perform various tasks, from writing online shopping and submission costs to improving the efficiency of the factory.
Founded by the Manuel Grenacher CEO, CCO Michelle Heppler and CTO Andreas Hauri in 2021, I would like to strengthen the agent AI personnel for financial services such as banks, insurance and private equity funds.
This means automating workflow in areas such as research, regulations and KYC (“customer notification”). It provides many customable AI agents with unique AI agents, and one of them is an investment research agent that provides answers to natural death query by utilizing internal and external knowledge.
There is a live -action agent, which also analyzes documents such as a report meeting and suggests the potential questions that bank staff should request.
The company originally focused on AI -based videos for sales teams, but developed into a similarity to “discretion for the financial team” during the intervention. And with SWISS Private National Bank Pictet in 2023, Live Goight is considered a strategic investor.
Unique is also a customer, including UBP and Graubündner Kantonalbank, and has other large Swiss financial institutions.
The new $ 30 million in banks said that the new one plans to accelerate the international expansion, focusing on the US market. The company has raised a total of $ 55 million so far.
