SolveAI, a platform that enables employees to build enterprise software using natural language, has raised a £37 million Series A led by GV and a previously unannounced £4 million pre-seed round led by Accel, with participation from Northzone, Mantis VC, NeverLift and angel investors including Mike LoSapio, Pushmeet Kohli and Olivier Godement. The funding will be used to grow the team, develop partnerships with global enterprises, and extend the platform’s capabilities.
Founded in London in July 2025 by former Palantir engineer Steve Basher, it is designed for enterprise software development within complex technical environments. Existing code-generation tools often produce applications that remain at prototype stage because they do not account for organisational context, security requirements, or legacy infrastructure. Through natural language, staff can generate proposals, technical specifications, and fully functional applications that integrate with existing systems and comply with governance requirements.
Enterprises often rely on outsourced custom software that is expensive to maintain and slow to adapt to changing workflows. The platform addresses this by proposing solutions in written form, generating technical specifications, and then orchestrating specialised AI agents across development stages such as user experience, front end, and back end. It delivers completed software products that integrate with enterprise platforms including SAP, Salesforce, Github, Snowflake and ServiceNow, supporting the full lifecycle from planning to deployment and maintenance.
At seven months old, it has grown to 12 employees, including senior experience from Palantir, ElevenLabs and Meta, with plans to expand headcount during 2026. Companies in sectors including manufacturing, retail and financial services are already exploring how the platform can address operational challenges and accelerate internal development within complex enterprise environments.
Magic happens when companies get the exact technology they need. Enterprises are desperate to capitalize on the AI coding revolution, but nobody has built a product that reflects their reality - complex systems, strict standards, and global scale. SolveAI puts the power to build software directly in the hands of the people closest to the problems, without compromising security or compliance. Think about all the things you could achieve if your IT team could be everywhere at once: SolveAI makes this a reality.
Most AI coding tools force enterprises to choose between speed and security. SolveAI doesn't. Steve and the team are building something genuinely different. They will unlock the ability for companies to move fast with AI while working within the constraints that matter: real security, real compliance, real infrastructure. We're excited to back them as they put software-building capability directly in the hands of people closest to the problems.
The future of enterprise software won’t be written by developers alone, but also by the employees who use it every day. These teams need a compliant way to bring AI into their workflow, and SolveAI is making this a reality by prioritising governance and security within complex legacy systems. With decades of combined ‘forward deployed’ experience, Steve and the SolveAI team are building a world where custom software and high-touch engineering capability can be scaled, and enterprises see real value from internal AI projects. We’re looking forward to continuing our partnership with them on the journey ahead.
