Veritus Raises $10.1M Seed for Voice-First AI Lending Agents

Veritus closed a $10.1 million seed round in February 2026 to develop its voice-first AI agents for consumer lending workflows. The platform is designed to integrate via APIs into existing lending processes, automating customer interactions and streamlining loan origination and servicing. Veritus targets the consumer lending vertical, where AI-powered voice agents can reduce operational costs and improve borrower experience.

The API-integrated approach positions Veritus as an embedded finance infrastructure play, enabling lenders to deploy AI capabilities without building them in-house. The seed round was part of a strong February for fintech funding, with over $1.02 billion raised across 29 rounds. The deal highlights the growing intersection of AI technology and lending infrastructure in the BaaS and embedded finance landscape.
