Confidential AI platform empowers enterprises to unlock and scale AI on their most sensitive data

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 12, 2026 — OPAQUE, the Confidential AI company defining the trust layer for enterprise AI, today announced a $24 million Series B funding round led by Walden Catalyst, with participation from returning investors including Intel Capital, Race Capital, Storm Ventures, Thomvest, and new investor and strategic partner, Advanced Technology Research Council (ATRC). This brings OPAQUE’s total funding to $55.5 million and values the company at approximately $300 million post-money.

From theory to mandate within a year, Confidential AI has been adopted and endorsed by companies like NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, Anthropic and all major hyperscalers, including Google, Microsoft Azure and AWS. According to Gartner, Confidential AI techniques are essential for enterprises securing GenAI workflows and protecting sensitive data used by AI models.

Enterprises across industries are eager to deploy AI agents on proprietary data to drive productivity and gain a competitive advantage, but most are blocked by data leakage and compliance risks. This widening “trust chasm” is causing AI initiatives to stall in pilots as CISOs, compliance, and legal teams pause deployments over concerns about privacy, policy enforcement, and auditability.

“Enterprises will continue to struggle to bring AI into production until they have verifiable guarantees that their most sensitive data and models are protected,” said Young Sohn, Founding Managing Partner at Walden Catalyst, and board member at Samsung, Arm and Cadence. “OPAQUE solves this problem and has pioneered a platform built for verifiable privacy, policy enforcement, and model integrity, capabilities that are quickly becoming non-negotiable. We’re proud to continue to support this round and OPAQUE as they enable trusted, enterprise-grade AI adoption.”

With this new funding, OPAQUE is accelerating the delivery of its Confidential AI platform — the only secure, auditable infrastructure that gives enterprises verifiable proof that their data privacy, model integrity, and policy enforcement are provable before, during, and after runtime. For organizations under pressure to innovate quickly while meeting rising compliance standards, OPAQUE offers a path to deploy AI with confidence, transparency, and verifiable trust.

“The real barrier to enterprise AI is trust,” said Aaron Fulkerson, CEO at OPAQUE. “AI won’t scale unless organizations can verify, not just assume, that their data and models are protected. Confidential AI closes the trust gap by delivering runtime proof that data stayed private during computation, model weights were never exposed, and policies were enforced exactly as written. We’re accelerating the shift to a confidential-first infrastructure so every enterprise can turn sensitive data from a liability into a competitive advantage.”

OPAQUE is expanding into post-quantum security, confidential AI training, and sovereign cloud environments, enabling enterprises to confidently scale AI across their most sensitive workloads. This investment strengthens OPAQUE’s mission to make AI governance by design the new standard for enterprise AI.

“There is no such thing as sovereign AI without verifiable guarantees on how data, models, and policies are protected and governed,” said Dr. Najwa Aaraj, CEO of the Technology Innovation Institute (TII). “OPAQUE provides the confidential and cryptographically verifiable foundation that empowers our combined technologies to operate AI systems with true sovereignty. This is why we’re excited to be both an investor and a partner, given our shared commitment to advancing Confidential AI innovation.”

This funding comes on the heels of the launch of OPAQUE Studio, a development environment that lets enterprises build and deploy Confidential AI agents with runtime-verifiable privacy, policy compliance, and auditability.

About OPAQUE
OPAQUE is the Confidential AI company. Born from UC Berkeley’s RISELab, OPAQUE solves the core challenge blocking AI adoption at scale: security concerns about data leaks or compliance violations. OPAQUE provides verifiable privacy and governance for AI so organizations can safely run models, agents, and workflows on their most sensitive data. Its Confidential AI platform delivers verifiable runtime governance backed by cryptographic proof that data, models, and agent actions remain private, governed, and compliant with approved policies throughout every AI workflow. This extends traditional data governance tools with real runtime verification, enabling teams to responsibly deploy AI using their most valuable proprietary data, and move from pilot to production 4-5X faster. Customers and partners include ServiceNow, Anthropic, Encore Capital, Accenture, and leaders across high tech, financial services, insurance, and healthcare. Learn more at opaque.co.

Funding accelerates deployment of biological computing systems as co-founders open flagship San Francisco lab

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 12, 2026 — The Biological Computing Co. (TBC), the company redefining computing for the post-silicon AI era, today launched a new class of compute that integrates living neurons with modern AI, becoming the first to deploy applied biological computing for computer vision, generative video, and AI infrastructure. The launch includes a $25 million seed round led by Primary, and coincides with the opening of TBC’s flagship lab in San Francisco’s Mission Bay to support customer deployment.

Formerly Biological Black Box (BBB), TBC connects living neurons with modern AI to make frontier models more stable, scalable, and efficient. The company’s neural-based solution integrates directly with foundation models to improve performance while reducing compute cost, reflecting a belief that the future of high-performance computing will increasingly incorporate real biology.

“While silicon has carried the field far, AI’s next breakthrough will come from alternative architectures like biological computing,” said Brian Schechter and Gaby Lorenzi of Primary Ventures. “We believe Alex, Jon and the team at TBC can deliver step-change gains for demanding workloads such as computer vision and world models, and its early progress points to a new class of AI infrastructure.”

The perfect storm driving low-power biocomputing

TBC was founded at the intersection of three global forces: breakthroughs in neuroscience, growing constraints of today’s AI systems, and an accelerating climate and energy crisis. Today’s dominant architectures rely heavily on brute-force scaling and repeated optimization cycles. These approaches have become increasingly expensive and difficult to sustain as systems move beyond static training, exposing the need for new computing paradigms that prioritize efficiency, stability, and reliability.

“The pinnacle of performant compute will closely resemble the brain in more ways than we can imagine,” said Scott Belsky, partner at A24 and previous chief of strategy at Adobe. “TBC is pursuing a north star that I believe is the most promising direction to explore the future of computing.”

From living neurons to deployable AI

TBC’s neuroscience and engineering team encodes real-world data (e.g., images, video) into living neurons, then decodes neural activity into richer representations mapped onto state-of-the-art AI models through modular adapters. In parallel, TBC’s Algorithm Discovery platform applies biologically derived principles to inform new AI system design beyond transformers, creating a compute layer that strengthens existing architectures rather than replacing them.

“Having worked at the intersection of neuroscience and AI, what excites me about TBC is that they’re not just borrowing metaphors – they’re using living neuronal cultures to discover learning rules for the next generation of AI,” noted Tim Gardner, co-founder of Neuralink.

Believing that better computers require a revolution in computing itself, TBC co-founders Alex Ksendsovsky, MD, PhD, and Jon Pomeraniec, MD, MBA, both neurosurgeon-neuroscientists, are establishing a new computing category where biological networks complement silicon to unlock new performance and efficiency capabilities across modern AI systems – demonstrating scalable quality gains that are critical for real-world products operating under tight energy constraints.

“Using the real brain for computing is paradoxically the most elusive yet the most obvious idea in the field of computer science,” says Ksendzovsky. “We’re at the ground level of paradigm shift, of what comes next, after language, after silicon,” Pomeraniec added. “We’re building infrastructure to understand and interact with the world in a fundamentally new way.”

This new workforce and workflow intelligence platform helps enterprise leaders understand what to automate and if those automations paid off.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb.11, 2026 — Reflow today announced the launch of its workforce and workflow intelligence platform designed to help modern enterprises understand how work happens across people and systems. The company also announced a $15M+ seed round to accelerate technology development and bring operational and AI automation intelligence to more enterprise customers.

As organizations rush to adopt AI, most leaders face a familiar constraint: they can measure outputs, but they lack visibility into the work that produces them. Decisions about automation and optimization are often driven by instinct, anecdotes, or slow, expensive consulting efforts.

Reflow was built to change that. The platform makes operational work observable, showing how work flows across systems and teams, identifying what to automate, and measuring the ROI impact of those changes.

Turning operational work into data

Reflow provides real-time visibility into how work is performed across people, systems, and processes, without time tracking, self-reported data, or complex integrations.

By turning operational work into structured data, Reflow helps organizations understand their true capacity, identify which workflows to automate, and measure AI automation ROI.

Built for operations-heavy enterprises

Reflow is designed for mid-market and enterprise organizations with large operational teams performing high-volume, repeatable, computer-based work.

These teams commonly operate in functions such as customer support, accounting, tax, legal, compliance, and where accuracy and efficiency directly impact margins.

The visibility gap holding modern operations back

Most companies can answer what their teams produce, but not how that work actually gets done.

This lack of enterprise process visibility creates real operational risk. Leaders struggle to validate capacity, enforce SOPs, identify automation opportunities, or measure whether AI and automation efforts actually worked.

In an AI-driven world, that lack of visibility becomes a blocker. Automation depends on understanding human work first.

From time tracking to workflow intelligence

Traditional time tracking and productivity tools focus on individual activity, hours logged, or self-reported tasks. While useful for basic oversight, they fail to capture how work actually moves across systems and teams.

Reflow takes a system-level approach. Instead of relying solely on measuring individuals in isolation, it observes workflows, revealing how tasks flow, where bottlenecks form, and where time is truly spent.

The platform helps organizations:

• Identify bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and SOP deviations
• Decide where automation or AI will have the highest impact
• Measure the ROI of automation efforts over time

The result is a view of operations leaders can actually act on.

Designed for workflow insight, not employee surveillance

Reflow is designed to help organizations understand systems, workflows, and capacity, not monitor individual employees.

The platform is privacy-first by design and includes enterprise-grade controls such as SOC 2 Type 2 compliance, configurable metadata collection, and flexible visibility settings. Organizations have full control and can choose aggregated or anonymized views and set clear boundaries around how data is used.

Early results from enterprise operations teams

Early customers have uncovered significant hidden capacity, reduced unnecessary headcount while increasing output, and identified high-impact areas of automation.

“Reflow helped us understand the unit economics of our work and where to optimize across workflows, productivity, and cost,” said Robert Robles, Chief of Staff at Boundless and early Reflow customer. “That clarity enabled smarter automation and more scalable operations.”

“Reflow saved us $1.2M in just two months. It showed us bottlenecks and helped us prioritize the highest-impact improvements with measurable ROI,” said Rohan Powar, Finance, Analytics and Strategy leader at Collective, another early Reflow customer.

A foundation for AI-driven operations

Automation without visibility leads to wasted spend, broken processes, and disappointing outcomes. Reflow acts as the precursor to automation, helping companies see what is actually happening and decide what to automate.

“AI can’t improve what organizations don’t understand,” said Ugur Kaner, founder of Reflow. “Reflow gives leaders a clear, shared view of how work actually happens, so automation decisions are grounded in reality, not assumptions. In an AI-driven world, that visibility becomes essential infrastructure.”

In a world where AI reshapes how work gets done, Reflow ensures that leaders understand how work actually happens.

Reflow is a workforce and workflow intelligence platform that helps enterprises understand how work actually happens across people and systems. By making operational work observable, Reflow enables leaders to optimize workflows, deploy automation with confidence, and measure real ROI.

With the nation’s defense budget expected to exceed $1 trillion in the near term, the U.S. government is investing in efforts to protect domestic innovation, bolster its competitive advantage, and maintain national security. From the first government-funded infrastructure project to today, project management has remained a major vulnerability for teams and a constant bottleneck to efficient execution. To pave new collaboration pathways for government projects, Integrate aims to unlock secure, shared multi-entity coordination, eliminating errors, delays, and losses incurred by fragmented workflows.

The first and only collaborative project management platform deployed to the classified environment Joint Worldwide Intelligence Communications System (JWICS), Integrate enables real-time collaboration on billion-dollar, top-secret projects involving hundreds of companies and stakeholders, operating across multiple clearance levels. Developed by a U.S. Air Force veteran with tenures at three aerospace unicorns, Integrate’s AI-native platform provides an ultra-secure environment for internal and external partners to eliminate siloed workflows and accelerate the development and implementation of the world’s most complex, mission-critical technologies.

Joining Integrate’s Board of Directors is FPV Ventures co-founder and managing partner Wesley Chan. An early investor in today’s software giants, including Canva, Robinhood, and Plaid, Chan’s foresight has built a robust company portfolio that includes five decacorns and more than 20 unicorns.

“It’s clear that the market has an appetite for technologies that are additive to the massive global defense tech sector,” said Wesley Chan. “Integrate’s AI-native platform has the potential to upend the market and accelerate the speed of innovation as we know it.

“We’ve been preparing for this moment for over a year,” said Imri Marcus, CEO of Brandlight. “From its inception, Brandlight was built to become a marketing operating system for AI as a channel, starting with AI search and now expanding into AI ads and commerce. Our promise to brands is simple: to keep being a partner they can rely on as this market evolves, helping them stay ahead rather than react.”

AI visibility is rapidly evolving from an emerging concern into a core marketing discipline requiring dedicated strategy and measurement. Brandlight continues to build the infrastructure that enables enterprise brands to approach this channel with the same confidence they’ve developed in search and social over the past two decades.

About Brandlight
Brandlight empowers brands to shape their presence in the era of AI-driven search. As consumers increasingly rely on AI platforms like ChatGPT and Gemini for information and recommendations, traditional SEO strategies are no longer sufficient. The Brandlight Platform provides tools and insights to help brands monitor, optimize, and influence how AI models perceive and present their narratives.
