Former DeepMind researchers have raised 拢15 million for their AI firm Airspeed.
The agentic AI scaleup has grown revenue 4x in the last 12 months and now serves 200 customers across 20 countries.
Airspeed is described as the execution layer for revenue teams, helping them turn customer conversations and commercial data into actions that move sales deals forward.
The Series A was led by DN Capital, with participation from Vi Partners, Framework Venture Partners and Atlassian Ventures. The round brings Airspeed’s total funding to more than $25 million.
It will be used to scale its presence in the US.
Founded in 2022 by two former DeepMind research scientists, Airspeed – formerly known as Glyphic – brings together strong AI credentials at a time when investors and customers are seeking practical enterprise use cases for advanced models.
Driven by an ever-growing global team, with offices in London and New York, Airspeed has assembled AI and engineering expertise with track records in household technology companies, including Meta, Apple and Spotify.聽
“Revenue teams have systems of record and systems of intelligence,鈥� said Adam Liska, CEO and co-founder of Airspeed. 鈥淲hat they don’t have is a system of action – one that understands their unique commercial context and does the work.聽
鈥淒ashboards weren’t wrong; they were incomplete. The next leap comes from agents that close the loop.”
Devang Agrawal, CTO and co-founder of Airspeed, said: “Most teams retrofit AI onto legacy systems. We built the foundation from scratch. Airspeed is a unified understanding of commercial context, an agent runtime with the right guardrails, and rigorous evaluations so every action is trustworthy. Our agents act on the live deal, not a stale snapshot of it.”
Thomas Rubens, partner at DN Capital, added: “Every CEO wants a single source of truth for what is driving the business. The next wave of enterprise AI belongs to systems that turn insight into execution.聽
鈥淎irspeed is building that system of action for modern organisations: combining real-time commercial visibility with AI agents that help teams execute faster and more consistently across the customer journey.”
Georgia Zhang, head of Atlassian Ventures, said: 鈥淭he next wave of enterprise AI belongs to agents that act on deep context, not chat that summarises it.聽
鈥淲e see that shift happening firsthand at Atlassian. Airspeed is bringing the same paradigm to the revenue stack, with the research rigor of a team built out of DeepMind.鈥澛�
Olivier Laplace, partner at Vi Partners, commented: 鈥淭he category-defining AI companies of this decade will be built by teams that combine research depth with commercial discipline and deep empathy for the end user.聽
鈥淎dam, Devang and the Airspeed team have all three. We love backing founders with European roots and the ambition to win globally. In our reference calls with Airspeed, one existing customer said it clearly: 鈥渢he best solution ever introduced into the company.鈥�
