Fintech Overmind raised €2.3 mn to secure agentic AI in regulated sectors

London-based Overmind has raised €2.3 mn in Seed funding to expand its engineering team, accelerate product development, and scale go-to-market efforts across legal, healthcare, and FinTech sectors where agentic AI deployment faces strict regulatory and data privacy constraints.

The round was led by Osney Capital, with participation from 14Peaks Capital, Portfolio Ventures, Antler, and Endurance Ventures.

Overmind develops technology that autonomously maps and monitors digital assets, helping organizations identify security risks and potential attack surfaces across cloud and enterprise environments.

Chief executive and co-founder Tyler Edwards said current AI security approaches focus on the wrong layer. Model-level vulnerabilities persist by design.

The greater risk appears once agents operate in live production environments, interacting with real systems and external inputs.

Overmind’s platform targets this deployment layer, monitoring behaviour and intervening when deviations emerge.

Adam Cragg, partner at Osney Capital, said agent security and execution quality will define competitive advantage in autonomous AI systems. He described Overmind’s deployment-layer monitoring as differentiated infrastructure rather than incremental tooling.

Founded in 2025, Overmind operates as a developer tool designed to allow AI agents to learn from production data through pattern-of-life analysis.

The system converts observed behaviour into continuous performance improvement while maintaining oversight. According to Beinsure analysts, regulated sectors increasingly demand runtime monitoring rather than static model audits.

The founding team blends intelligence and commercial technology backgrounds. Edwards previously built AI systems for UK intelligence agencies including MI5, MI6, and GCHQ.

Chief technology officer Akhat Rakishev led machine learning infrastructure at Monzo and Lyst. Chief revenue officer Sam Brunt previously scaled commercial teams at Funding Circle, Pipe, and Vertice.

Antler partner Adam French said autonomous agents introduce supervision gaps that legacy security tools fail to address. He described Overmind’s approach as defining standards for secure AI deployment.

Overmind is addressing one of the most critical bottlenecks in the advancement of AI: the security and supervision of autonomous agents.

“The founding team is uniquely positioned to solve this and deliver the ‘intelligence-grade’ security AI tools need. We are proud to back a team that isn’t just building a tool, but is defining the security standard for how superintelligence will be safely deployed in production,” Adam French said.

The threat model continues shifting as agentic systems expand into production environments. Gartner estimates 40% of agentic AI projects will be cancelled by 2027, largely due to inadequate risk controls.

According to our data, deployment-stage visibility and behaviour governance now represent core adoption bottlenecks.

Overmind positions its platform as infrastructure that observes, secures, and iteratively improves AI agent performance in real time.

Through reinforcement learning mechanisms, the system not only constrains risk but enhances accuracy over time, aligning security oversight with performance optimisation.
