Kayna, founded in 2021 by CEO Paul Prendergast and CTO Peter Bermingham, has built an infrastructure layer that allows vertical SaaS platforms serving small businesses—such as restaurants, franchise networks, construction firms, and field-service operators—to embed insurance offerings directly into their workflows. The company simplifies distribution for insurers and unlocks ancillary revenue for software vendors by integrating underwriting, policy issuance, and claims into existing software stacks. During its pre-seed phase (2023–2025) Kayna partnered with global broker Willis Towers Watson and launched live embedded insurance programs in the UK and US across cyber, equine, and security verticals, including a February 2026 launch with Belfry for the physical-security industry. It also rolled out an AI toolkit that automates insurance-policy analysis. Headquartered in Cork’s Penrose Wharf, Kayna has committed to creating 13 new roles and has already made senior hires in Ireland and the United States. The company’s near-term focus is expanding commercial operations in the UK and US markets, funded by its new seed capital. No revenue or user figures were disclosed in the article.

Tangible’s core offering standardises the data, documentation and ongoing reporting that lenders require, allowing robotics, climate, mobility and data-centre startups to obtain asset-backed debt more quickly and cheaply. Its AI-driven workflows and in-house finance experts cut underwriting time and cost for a network of private credit funds, hedge funds, equipment financiers and traditional banks. By replacing bespoke, manual processes, the platform lets founders run sophisticated debt facilities without building an internal structured-finance team. Tangible currently employs 13 people. The company intends to use its new capital to expand headcount and develop additional products that further streamline debt fundraising. Including this round, Tangible has raised roughly $9.8 million in external funding when combined with the £4 million ($5.45 million) round it closed in 2023. Management believes modern infrastructure is essential for scaling hardtech finance as institutional investors look for faster, lower-friction deployment mechanisms.

Founded in 2022 and headquartered in Lausanne, Switzerland, Ex Nunc Intelligence has built Silex, an AI legal-intelligence platform that interprets natural-language legal queries and returns documented answers grounded in authoritative legal sources. The company has created a proprietary legal intelligence stack that covers data ingestion, legal structuring, retrieval, reasoning, and generation, including its own AI models. Silex is already used by hundreds of law firms, notary offices, and corporate legal departments, demonstrating early market traction in the B2B legal sector. The product roadmap includes rolling out specialized AI agents tailored to individual legal domains and expanding the underlying legal knowledge infrastructure. Recent funding will accelerate these development efforts and support broader market rollout. Although still at the pre-revenue or undisclosed-revenue stage, the company’s adoption figures suggest growing demand for automated legal research solutions.
