Two AI startups from Ukraine have attracted more than $3.2M from investors.
Ukrainian AI platform Mantis Analytics received $240,000 from the Nezlamni fund. This will be used to accelerate development and launch the platform in the US market, which is a critical strategic priority for the startup.
Mantis Analytics increases the effectiveness of security operations by providing real-time situational awareness to detect and respond to threats. Founded in 2022 at the start of the war, the company has evolved from a volunteer initiative into a dual-purpose startup.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian AI media analytics startup Osavul raised $3M from 42CAP, u.ventures, and SMRK. Osavul plans to scale operations at the global level and enter new markets, particularly the US and the EU, and offer new opportunities to the B2B segment, and to improve its AI algorithms.
The IT company, aimed at fighting disinformation, was founded in February 2022. The analytical platform works with data in text, video, and audio formats on various platforms.
