Enterprises face a critical gap in AI adoption: while pilots proliferate, a recent study indicates 95% fail to reach production, limiting real impact despite rising investments. IDC projects global generative AI spending to reach $632 billion by 2028 at a 29% CAGR, underscoring demand for platforms that deliver secure, scalable AI integrated into existing systems. AISquared addresses this last-mile challenge, enabling organizations to move from experimentation to operational AI with governance and measurable outcomes.
Strong Traction in Enterprise and Federal Sectors Demand remains high in industries requiring strict compliance and rapid value realization. AISquared's platform supports modernization of legacy applications with embedded AI insights, proving particularly effective in high-stakes federal environments. Adoption grew across agencies, with the NASA JPL collaboration exemplifying how AISquared accelerates mission-critical workflows through secure data integration and AI.
Growth Funding to Fuel Expansion The recent funding round, led by Coast Range Capital and supported by NEA, Roger Ferguson, and Chairman Darren Kimura, will accelerate product development, go-to-market efforts, and investment in enterprise and federal use cases. This capital strengthens AISquared's ability to help organizations deploy AI at scale while maintaining security and control.
"AI promises transformation, but too often it gets stuck in pilot mode," said Darren Kimura, Chairman and CEO of AISquared. "Studies show that 95% of AI projects fail to reach production. Our mission is to solve that last-mile challenge and make AI operationally ready, scalable, and secure. With this financing, we can help organizations bring AI into the field and deliver real business and mission impact."
Enhanced Leadership Team To support scaling, AISquared bolstered its executive and board ranks with experienced leaders in enterprise technology, cybersecurity, industrials, and customer success. These additions align with the company's vertical focus, where tailored AI solutions deliver the greatest impact within existing workflows.
Product and Partnership Advancements Recent innovations include Sparx, a no-code enterprise AI offering for mid-market organizations, alongside upgrades to the AI workflow builder for seamless integration into business systems. Expanded governance features support regulated industries and federal requirements. As an IBM Agent Connect Partner, AISquared combines Sparx with IBM watsonx Orchestrate to deliver contextual AI insights across systems with built-in security.
Industry Recognition and Federal Milestones AISquared earned accolades including CRN's 10 Hottest AI Companies to Watch in 2025, Smart AI 100 Startups, DCA dual-use recognition, and G2 High Performer status in Embedded Business Intelligence. In the federal space, "Awardable" status in the Department of War's Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace streamlines procurement for defense agencies.
With continued financial strength, innovation, and trust from large financial institutions, complex supply chains, and the U.S. Department of Defense, AISquared is well-positioned to capitalize on the shift toward production-grade, secure AI deployment across industries.
