Bringing trust back to generative AI.

Vigilant AI.ai creates teammates for regulated organisations that need the productivity of generative AI without the compliance nightmares.

Its platform embeds real‑time guardrails and audit trails so financial services, healthcare, and legal firms can use large language models inside existing workflows with full oversight.

In its pre‑seed round, the startup raised £585k led by Haatch, giving it the runway to hire engineers and commercial talent.

Co‑founders Mark Wood and Michael Anyfantakis built the product after seeing the "AI trust gap" at regulated enterprises.

How will AI regulations shape product design in the next two years?
