Agentic investment research workflows startup Pascal AI Labs Pvt. Ltd. today announced that it has raised $3.1 million in funding to accelerate product development of its autonomous investment workflows, expand into the U.S. and ink strategic data partnerships.
Founded in 2024, Pascal AI offers a vertical artificial intelligence platform purpose-built for the investment management industry that enables autonomous, agentic workflows. The company leverages AI to transform how research is conducted, moving well beyond information retrieval to reasoning and acting like a seasoned investor while also prioritizing trust, security and auditability.
Pascal AI automates the full investment lifecycle, from gathering insights buried in transcripts, filings and internal notes to refreshing models, generating investment memos and performing comparative analyses. The platform’s AI agents extract key performance indicators, surface red flags, draft investor communications and update financial models, all in a matter of minutes rather than hours or days.
The company says that one of its key differentiators is its AI’s ability to learn from each firm’s proprietary processes and history, enabling it to reason like an experienced analyst rather than a generic AI. The result delivers an accelerated research process, along with a continuously updated, holistic view of exposures and performance.
On the security side, the platform employs a knowledge graph to ensure that all actions are fully auditable and traceable. Added role-based permissions and support for on-premises deployment also allow high-stakes institutions to confidently rely on its autonomous workflows.
“The future of investment management is autonomous investment research,” said co-founder and Chief Executive Vibhav Viswanathan. “Pascal AI is systematically automating complex investment workflows with the long-term vision of creating a fully autonomous investment research company.”
While still relatively young, Pascal AI is already finding success, with its platform deployed by more than 25 financial firms across the U.S. and the Asia-Pacific region, including $2 billion private equity funds and a top-three global asset manager with more than $1 trillion in assets under management.
Kalaari Capital Advisors Pvt. Ltd. led the seed round, with Norwest Venture Partners LP, Info Edge Ventures Pvt. Ltd., Antler Global Ltd. and leading angel investors also participating.
“At Kalaari, we believe the next decade will see a decisive shift toward autonomous research platforms that can scale human judgment with machine intelligence,” said Sampath P, a partner at Kalaari Capital. “Pascal AI is at the forefront of this transformation — building secure, auditable and truly agentic workflows that don’t just process information but reason like an investor.”
