Socratix AI raises $4.1M to build autonomous AI coworkers

Socratix AI has raised $4.1 million in a seed funding round. Pear VC led the funding round, with participation from Y Combinator, Twenty Two Ventures, and Transpose Platform.

The company builds autonomous AI coworkers for fraud and risk teams. The funding will support product research and industry engagement.

Socratix AI develops its platform for banks and fintech companies. The technology helps financial institutions fight modern, AI-powered fraud attacks that older systems often miss. Its autonomous agents automate the heavy workload of fraud investigations. They gather data, map relationships, and build initial case narratives for human analysts. This frees analysts to focus on higher-level decisions. These tasks include freezing an account or escalating a case to legal teams.

Early results show significant efficiency gains. Investigations that once took a full day can now be completed in 15 minutes. The platform is built to handle enterprise-scale data. It processes petabyte-scale logs, transaction streams, and device information.

Socratix AI integrates with existing fraud detection tools. The system provides explainable, decision-ready outputs suitable for regulated financial environments.
