SignSplit, a startup founded by Glib Denisov, has secured $400 million in strategic seed financing from W Group. The company, valued at $1 billion, plans to use the funds to expand its global presence and develop its "signed data" platform.

The company expects the demand for real-world human data to grow as AI development expands in various sectors, such as healthcare, science, robotics, and media.

W Group, the lead investor, sees SignSplit as an important infrastructure for the data economy and believes it could create new relationships between individuals and technology companies while establishing clearer terms for using human-generated information.
