AI infrastructure startup nexos.ai has secured $8 million in funding led by Index Ventures.
Founded in 2024 by Nord Security co-founders Tomas Okmanas and Eimantas Sabaliauskas, nexos.ai aims to address one of the biggest challenges facing enterprises in 2025: the growing AI model ecosystem. We aim to work on systems.
Nexos.ai has positioned itself as an “orchestration platform” and “connective tissue” for enterprises powering AI deployments, enabling them to efficiently deploy, manage, and optimize their IT infrastructure.
With the launch of the nexos platform, users will have access to over 200 AI models through a single interface. This includes models from major industry providers such as OpenAI, Meta, Anthropic, and Google.
The main features of the platform are:
Streamline performance with smart model routing and load balancing Intelligent caching reduces costs for repetitive queries AI operational monitoring and analysis tools Enterprise-grade security and compliance controls Automated optimization of AI model performance
The nexos.ai platform will launch in Q1 2025 and is already being tested by partners considering use cases such as automated customer support, the company revealed.
The inspiration behind nexos.ai comes from Okmanas’ experience integrating AI in companies he has worked with. In some cases, these organizations were spending more than $100,000 per month on large-scale language models (LLMs) and were struggling to implement them.
After contacting other companies, it became clear that the same issue was occurring over and over again. Primarily, companies are eager to adopt AI but lack the appropriate infrastructure to accelerate adoption.
The company says LLM’s rapid growth over the past two years has outpaced infrastructure capacity, meaning companies are struggling to manage both costs and performance requirements.
“Enterprises recognize that AI is an operational and competitive imperative, but they also need to manage multiple models, control costs, and ensure accurate and reliable performance,” said Okmanas, CEO of nexos.ai. “We are drowning in the challenge of securing the best of both worlds.”
“At the same time, AI models are becoming increasingly autonomous and able to handle complex tasks with minimal human intervention,” he added.
“We built nexos.ai to be an enterprise-grade platform that makes using AI as intuitive as working with human teams. We provide the infrastructure and monitoring to ensure your models perform at their best.”
The funding round also included participation from Creandum and Dig Ventures, as well as angel investment from Klarna CEO Sebastian Siemiatkowski, Datadog CEO Olivier Pomel, and Wix CEO Avishai Abrahami through Flat Capital.
