Taktile, a startup building AI-powered decision infrastructure for banks, fintechs, lenders, and insurers, has raised a $110 million Series C round. The investment was led by Goldman Sachs Alternatives, with participation from existing investors including Tiger Global, Index Ventures, and Y Combinator. With the new funding, Taktile’s total capital raised now stands at approximately $189 million.
The round ranks among the largest recent funding deals for a company focused specifically on AI-driven decision automation in financial services. It comes at a time when financial institutions are moving beyond AI pilots and beginning to deploy AI in critical workflows such as underwriting, fraud detection, compliance reviews, anti-money laundering checks, and insurance claims processing.
As demand grows for AI systems that can operate within regulated environments, Taktile is positioning itself as a platform for managing and governing these high-stakes decisions at scale.
According to Maik Taro Wehmeyer, co-founder and CEO of Taktile, financial services is entering a new phase of AI adoption. “AI has been around for a couple of years, but 2026 is the year where AI comes to financial services,” he said. “The models have now increased to such a strong level that they finally allow for agents to perform better than humans at many complex tasks.”
Strong Growth Since Its Series B
Taktile has expanded significantly since raising its $54 million Series B round in February 2025. According to the company, it quadrupled its customer base during 2024 while growing annual recurring revenue by more than 3.5 times.
The platform now serves financial institutions across 24 markets, reflecting growing demand for AI-powered decision systems that can operate within regulated environments.
Its customer roster includes fintech companies such as Mercury, Kueski, and Zilch, as well as established financial institutions including Allianz and Rakuten Bank. As of its Series B announcement, Taktile’s platform was already processing hundreds of millions of risk decisions every month across areas such as onboarding, credit underwriting, fraud prevention, and compliance.
The latest funding round appears to be focused on accelerating growth rather than extending runway, backed by strong customer adoption and increasing usage among banks, lenders, fintechs, and insurers.
Why Goldman Sachs Alternatives Matters
The lead investor in the round is notable in its own right. Goldman Sachs Alternatives manages hundreds of billions of dollars across private equity, growth investments, credit, infrastructure, and other alternative asset classes. Its decision to lead Taktile’s Series C signals growing institutional confidence in AI companies that serve highly regulated industries rather than consumer-facing AI applications.
The investment also highlights where some of the biggest opportunities in enterprise AI may lie. Banks, insurers, and other financial institutions are among the highest-value customers for AI software because they manage complex operations, process massive volumes of data, and operate under strict regulatory requirements.
As these organizations look to deploy AI in production environments, platforms that help automate and govern critical business decisions are attracting increasing attention from both customers and investors.
Closing line
The round positions Taktile to expand its role in helping banks, fintechs, and insurers build AI-powered decision systems that can operate at enterprise scale while meeting the strict requirements of regulated industries.
