Cambridge-based startup Signaloid has raised a Seed round of 拢3m led by IQ Capital.
The data platform will use the funding to scale operational capacity and take on larger customers and applications.
Additional investment has come from Type One Ventures and Creator Fun.
Founded by Phillip Stanley-Marbell, Signaloid鈥檚 technology is used in applications including materials modelling, autonomous systems, computational finance, machine learning and quantum computing.
Signaloid鈥檚 computing platform allows systems to automatically track variations in real-world data which get hidden by averaging when being fed to computers.
The company will use the funding to scale its engineering implementations, allowing it to take on larger customers with both more demanding workloads and with a greater number of applications running on Signaloid鈥檚 Compute Engine platform.

鈥淭he investment will allow us to further strengthen the team in strategic areas and to scale the number of use cases of our platform, from the hundreds of signed-up users we have on our developer platform today, to a larger number of production deployments of our cloud-based and edge-hardware compute engine, by our customers.”
Ed Stacey, managing partner and co-founder of IQ Capital, said: 鈥淲e鈥檙e delighted to be working with Signaloid on its pioneering approach for a new generation of computation infrastructure.
鈥淭heir platform allows its customers to track uncertainties in data, and model probability distributions 鈥 all without any modifications to customers鈥 existing software, and in real-time. We鈥檙e excited to see how uncertainty quantification is becoming widely adopted in industry and finance, resulting in far better and more reliable end products.鈥
