Aditya Birla Ventures has announced its investment in the first tranche of Articul8 AI, Inc.’s oversubscribed Series B financing round. Articul8 AI, an enterprise generative AI (GenAI) software company, continues to attract strong global investor interest, with other participants in the round including Adara Ventures and NXC Corporation. Reflecting strong investor demand, the company expects to complete a final, strategic Series B closing in Q1 2026, as it selectively finalizes participation from additional long-term partners.
Upon completion, the Series B is expected to raise approximately $70M, bringing Articul8’s valuation to over $500M, representing a five-fold increase from its Series A valuation in less than two years. Articul8 also continues to benefit from the ongoing support of strategic investors including DigitalBridge, which recently announced a pending acquisition by SoftBank, and Intel.
In less than two years since its launch, Articul8 has surpassed $90 million in total contract value, representing more than 3x growth relative to its 2024 levels, driven by strong and accelerating enterprise customer demand for its secure, domain-specific GenAI Platform.
Articul8’s full-stack platform, powered by its proprietary ModelMesh reasoning engine, enables enterprises to build, deploy, and manage secure GenAI applications entirely within their own security perimeters while delivering contextualized, domain-specific outcomes. The platform has consistently outperformed general-purpose large language models. For example, Articul8’s A8-Energy model achieved 96.9% accuracy across specialized regulatory and infrastructure topics, compared to 71.3% for general-purpose alternatives, while also outperforming them on critical energy-consumption benchmarks.
“We’re at a clear inflection point for enterprise AI,” said Arun Subramaniyan, Founder & CEO of Articul8. “Enterprises are starting to operationalize AI in environments where trust, precision, and accountability are non-negotiable. This new funding reflects the confidence our customers, partners, and investors have in our approach to enterprise AI, and it positions us to scale globally with the right long-term partners.”
“Generative AI is a pivotal, transformative force, fast evolving into a strategic necessity for maintaining competitive edge. Its impact on operational efficiency, innovation, customer experience and decision-making will be significant across sectors,” said Aryaman Vikram Birla, Founder, Aditya Birla Ventures. “Articul8 via its vertically optimised Gen AI platform is helping enterprises globally in building and deploying Gen AI applications swiftly and cost-effectively by unlocking significant value in their proprietary data. We have strong belief and conviction in the founding team, and the investment aligns with our vision to back outstanding founders building global businesses of tomorrow. Our endeavour is to open up ABG’s global ecosystem and network for the growth of our portfolio companies.”
In recent months, Articul8 has continued to improve accuracy across complex enterprise workflows with new table-understanding capabilities and domain-specific agents designed to reason over structured data and industry-specific knowledge. These advances further strengthen Articul8’s ability to deliver precise, hyper-personalized, traceable outcomes in regulated and mission-critical environments where traditional general-purpose models often struggle.
Recent milestones underscore Articul8’s accelerating enterprise and ecosystem leadership: being named the foundational GenAI provider for the Open Power AI Consortium (OPAI) by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI), in collaboration with NVIDIA; selection as a launch partner for Google’s Agent-to-Agent (A2A) interoperability protocol; achievement of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Generative AI Competency and the newly introduced AWS Agentic AI Specialization; selection by Meta and AWS for the exclusive Startups: Building with Llama program; and the launch of its next-generation multi-agent platform at the Paris Air Show to advance aerospace engineering workflows.
Proceeds from the Series B will be used to accelerate global expansion, deepen its proprietary reasoning technology, and support growing enterprise deployments across North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
