NeuralTrust secured $20M in seed funding led by Alstin Capital to expand its AI agent management platform. The company helps enterprises discover, monitor, govern, and secure AI agents across their operations.

NeuralTrust provides technology that gives enterprises visibility and control over AI agents deployed in their systems. The platform addresses growing concerns around AI governance as organizations integrate autonomous agents into critical workflows. The seed round will fund three key initiatives: strengthening the core platform, expanding the engineering team, and scaling operations across Europe. The company plans to build out its feature set while establishing stronger footholds in key European markets. AI governance remains an emerging priority for enterprises navigating regulatory requirements and operational risks. NeuralTrust's tools address the gap between rapid AI agent adoption and the need for proper oversight and security controls. The funding reflects investor confidence in governance-focused AI infrastructure, a segment gaining traction as organizations move beyond experimentation with AI agents toward production deployments.
