Agent AI infrastructure platform Riser AI has secured a $14.5 million Series A+ round led by Accenture. The investment values the Jersey City, New Jersey-based startup at $250 million, and comes less than a year after the company raised an $8 million Series A round in October. Lyzr AI said in a statement on its LinkedIn page that the investment will help further develop its “fundamental technology platform to power post-generation AI environments.”
“Enterprise AI adoption is accelerating,” the company note continues. “But not the kind that exists on slide decks and conference rooms. The kind that passes a 300-question technical audit. The kind that runs inside the customer’s own VPC. The kind that survives VAPT and red teaming before going into production. That’s the standard Lyzr was built to.”
Lyzr’s platform allows businesses to build, design, and deploy AI agents that can complete tasks, interact with enterprise tools and data sources, and automate workflows including customer onboarding, loan repayment and origination, regulatory oversight, claims processing, and more. With over 100 production-ready AI agents available, Lyzr’s technology streamlines processes in banking, insurance, human resources, marketing, and sales, and is used by companies such as AWS, Hitachi, NTT Data, and Nvidia.
“The true strength of Lyzr’s enterprise platform lies in the combined value of its ecosystem,” the company wrote. “We have built an architecture designed to drive holistic mutual growth and strategic alignment, delivering measurable success for customers, consulting partners, hyperscalers, and LLM providers alike.”
