The US-headquartered company said it will use the fresh capital to work on an enterprise AI adoption challenge: secure and governed deployment of autonomous agents in production.
Founded in 2023 by Siva Surendira, Anirudh Narayan, and Ankit Garg, Lyzr offers a full-stack, low-code framework for building and deploying secure, reliable, and intelligent AI agents. It focuses on creating agents that can learn, adapt, and work collaboratively to automate complex business workflows.
“The AI revolution will be won by enterprises that can safely move from promising prototypes to a governed, autonomous workforce at scale,” Siva Surendira, Founder and CEO of Lyzr, said, adding that the company is building the essential infrastructure that allows organisations to deploy AI agents with confidence and full IP ownership.
About 70% of Lyzr’s customers are in financial services, including leading banks, global insurers, and payments leaders. Its customers include WTW (Willis Towers Watson), NVIDIA, Under Armour, Accenture, Publicis, Hitachi, and AirAsia.
Lyzr is working on the concept of organisational general intelligence, an approach to creating a smarter, more connected enterprise. The concept focuses on networking an organisation’s specialised AI agents—from HR and finance to marketing and customer service—into a cohesive system.
“By uniting agents on our AgentMesh platform, we create a network effect where the entire organization becomes more efficient and intelligent with each new agent deployed. This is OGI. It is the final step in digital transformation,” Surendira noted.
