Neurometric builds an automated token engineering platform that evaluates individual model calls, modifies prompts, routes tasks to the most cost-effective models, and creates specialized small language models when needed. Its Task Endpoint Manager continuously updates model performance and pricing data to meet customer accuracy, cost, and latency requirements, and its Auto-SLM Creator generates purpose-built SLMs for recurring workloads. The platform also includes a marketplace of pre-trained task-specific SLMs for common workloads. Neurometric reports that routed or created models in early customer engagements have outperformed frontier models by as much as 20 accuracy points while reducing cost and latency. The company launched the platform publicly and closed $4 million in funding earlier this year. Neurometric plans to use the funding to expand its engineering and AI research teams and to add more optimization tools to the core platform.

Jazz is a New York City–based cybersecurity startup building an AI-driven Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solution called the “Agentic Investigator.” The platform deploys a forensic endpoint agent that analyzes full data-behavior context—including user intent and business processes—to separate normal activity from actual threats, replacing high-volume alerts with pre-investigated answers. Already in production at dozens of enterprises such as Lemonade, AlphaSense, and CAVA, the product aims to reduce alert fatigue and accelerate incident response for security teams. Having emerged from stealth, Jazz has secured $61 million in combined Seed and Series A funding to accelerate growth. The fresh capital will be directed toward scaling global operations, expanding enterprise adoption, and strengthening engineering, research, and go-to-market functions. Led by CEO Ido Livneh alongside co-founders Jake Tuertskey, Noam Issachar, and Yonatan Zohar, the company positions itself to lead the next generation of data security solutions.

Duckbill began as a specialized cloud-cost consulting firm and is now evolving into a software company. Its flagship product, Skyway, transforms private cloud pricing agreements into structured data so finance and engineering teams can validate discounts and model future expenses across AWS, Google Cloud, and Microsoft Azure. Rather than focusing solely on cost reduction, Skyway emphasizes financial planning and predictability for large, complex cloud footprints, including those driven by fast-growing AI workloads. The newly raised capital will be used to expand Duckbill’s engineering team and accelerate feature development of additional Skyway modules. Co-founders Corey Quinn and CEO Mike Julian leverage years of experience negotiating large-scale cloud contracts to inform the platform’s capabilities. Although the company has not disclosed revenue or user counts, the move from services to software signals an ambition to scale recurring, higher-margin product revenue streams.

ConfigHub is developing a SaaS product that centralizes scattered configuration data into a single database with a live view of production systems. The platform aims to make configuration easy to find, inspect, and change so teams can diagnose and fix customer issues quickly. It will initially focus on Kubernetes DevOps tooling including Helm, Argo, Flux, Terraform and the open-source fork Opentofu. The company says it is already working with several medium-to-large enterprise design partners and is still some months from formal launch. ConfigHub was founded in mid-2024 by CEO Alexis Richardson, CTO Brian Grant and CPO Jesper Joergensen, each with deep cloud and platform experience. The company emerged from stealth after raising $4 million in financing.
