Prevalent AI secures $22M growth investment to scale enterprise AI platform

Enterprise AI firm Prevalent AI has announced the acquisition of $22 million in growth capital from Los Angeles-based Integrity Growth Partners (IGP). This marks the first primary funding raised by the company since its inception nine years ago, in 2017. Co-founded by Paul Stokes and Arun Raj, Prevalent AI specializes in AI-powered data platforms that connect and contextualize data across enterprise systems.

Their technology consolidates data from hundreds of enterprise sources into a continuously updated sovereign knowledge graph. This platform offers a unified layer of context throughout an organization, mapping the data and systems present, their interrelations, and potential operational gaps. While initially concentrated on cybersecurity, where disparate data can pose risks, Prevalent AI is now expanding its use in other enterprise functions, anticipating the growing reliance on AI systems and agents that need connected and dependable data.

Co-founder and CEO Paul Stokes emphasized that the issue for large enterprises isn't the scarcity of tools or data, but the inability to link this information and provide adequate context. He explained that Prevalent AI's initial focus on cybersecurity arose from the fragmented data that could lead to operational risks. As businesses adopt AI agents and automated systems, Prevalent AI positions its knowledge graph as a source of enterprise context, enabling these systems to understand data relationships and support decision-making across various functions.

With the new funding, Prevalent AI aims to boost its sales, marketing, customer success, and partnership operations, while accelerating expansion within the US. Additionally, the investment will be utilized to extend its knowledge graph technology into broader risk and enterprise applications, and to reinforce its leadership team.
