Resolve AI, a startup building an autonomous site reliability engineer (SRE) platform, announced a Series A financing led by Lightspeed Venture Partners that carries a headline valuation of $1 billion. The company, founded less than two years ago by former Splunk executives Spiros Xanthos and Mayank Agarwal, reports annual recurring revenue of about $4 million. Resolve AI’s technology automates the detection, diagnosis, and remediation of production issues, addressing a growing talent shortage in SRE roles as cloud environments become more complex. The round’s blended valuation is lower than the headline figure due to a multi‑tranche structure, a model gaining popularity among high‑growth AI startups. Read more →

Huxe launched on an invite‑only basis before becoming publicly available on iOS and Android. The company raised $4.6 million from investors including Conviction, Genius Ventures, Figma CEO Dylan Field and Google Research chief scientist Jeff Dean. Read more →
