As businesses rush to deploy AI agents — software that can act on its own to complete tasks — a new question is emerging: who is watching the agents?
NeuralTrust, a startup building tools for exactly that, has raised $20 million in seed funding. According to Tech.eu, the round was led by Alstin Capital.
The company's platform is designed to let enterprises discover, monitor, govern, and secure the AI agents running across their organizations. In plain terms, that means helping a company find out which agents are operating, keep an eye on what they are doing, set rules for how they behave, and protect against misuse or security risks.
NeuralTrust plans to use the fresh capital to strengthen its platform, hire additional engineers, and expand its presence, according to the Tech.eu report relayed by Techmeme.
Why it matters: As companies hand more decisions and actions over to autonomous AI, the tools to track and control those systems are becoming as important as the agents themselves — and investors are betting that oversight is a market of its own.
