Taktile, a New York-based SaaS startup specializing in automated risk decisioning, has raised $54 million in a Series B funding round led by Balderton Capital. The round also saw participation from existing investors, including Tiger Global Management, Y Combinator, Prosus Ventures, Visionaries Club, Index Ventures, and former U.S. Treasury Secretary Larry Summers. This brings Taktile’s total funding to approximately $79 million.
Founded in 2020 by former QuantCo developers Maik Taro Wehmeyer and Maximilian Eber, Taktile provides financial institutions with a no-code platform to design and deploy automated decision flows for processes such as credit approvals, fraud detection, and regulatory compliance. The platform integrates AI-powered tools, including an optimization studio and a data marketplace, to streamline risk assessment. The company operates across 24 markets, serving clients such as Mercury, Kueski, Zilch, Allianz, and Rakuten Bank.
With headquarters in New York and additional offices in Berlin and London, Taktile has seen rapid growth in the past year, quadrupling its customer base and increasing annual recurring revenue (ARR) by 3.5x. The fresh capital will fuel further expansion, with a focus on refining its AI decisioning technology and supporting financial institutions in adopting AI-driven risk management strategies at scale.
Commenting on the raise, CEO and co-founder Maik Taro Wehmeyer said:
“From day one, we believed organizations could make better decisions for their customers by leveraging AI without sacrificing control. Our goal is to empower financial institutions—especially in highly regulated industries—to integrate AI into critical workflows while keeping experienced risk teams at the helm.”
Balderton Capital’s General Partner, Rob Moffat, highlighted the impact of Taktile’s technology:
“Many companies still rely on disconnected tools or in-house coding for decision-making, which creates inefficiencies. Taktile’s unified platform allows businesses to centralize customer data and automate complex decision logic, making processes more scalable and transparent. This approach has earned them partnerships with some of the most advanced fintechs, and now, major banks and insurers.”
With this latest funding, Taktile aims to further strengthen its AI-powered risk decisioning platform, helping financial institutions optimize workflows and make faster, more accurate decisions across the customer lifecycle.
