Enterprise data security startup Matters.AI has announced raising $6.25 million in seed and pre-seed funding.
The company’s $4.75 million seed round was co-led by Endiya Partners and Kalaari Capital, with additional participation from Better Capital, Carya Venture Partners, and angel investors. The $1.5 million pre-seed was led by Better Capital and Carya Venture Partners.
Founded in 2023, San Francisco-based Matters.AI has built an autonomous platform for safeguarding enterprise data.
Functioning as an ‘AI Security Engineer’, the platform unifies data security functions in a single solution, correlating information from an organization’s systems to proactively identify and prevent data misuse.
Relying on semantic intelligence and behavioral context, the platform finds data across devices and environments, and learns how and why it is used, to protect it wherever it lives and however it moves.
The AI Security Engineer provides visibility into endpoints, data lineage and fingerprinting, and data governance across agentic AI tools, and can be used across on-premises and SaaS deployments.
Matters.AI will use the new funds to fuel research and development, scale its engineering team, and expand its presence on the US market.
“Security teams tell us their biggest gap is between visibility and enforcement. Matters unifies discovery, lineage, and intent-aware controls into a single policy plane so organizations can prevent data exfiltration across cloud, SaaS, endpoints, and AI tools – while cutting alert noise,” Endiya Partners managing director Sateesh Andra said.
