Scaled Cognition Lands $100M Series A to Scale Reliable Enterprise AI

July 1, 2026

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 1, 2026 — AI model lab Scaled Cognition announced it has raised $100 million in a Series A funding round led by Khosla Ventures. The company is focused on solving one of the biggest challenges in AI today: reliability. While AI systems have become remarkably capable, they remain prone to mistakes and hallucinations that limit their use in critical enterprise workflows. Scaled Cognition is building AI that enterprises can trust, and is already in production with Fortune 500 enterprises across financial services, healthcare, telecom, and insurance — where a wrong answer has real consequences.

Scaled Cognition was co-founded by CTO Dan Klein, a UC Berkeley professor of AI and leading natural language processing researcher, and CEO Dan Roth, who together previously built and sold one of the first agentic AI companies to Microsoft. The funding will be used to expand the company’s research team and accelerate enterprise deployments.

Scaled Cognition is an AI model lab building Super-Reliable Intelligence for the enterprise. The company’s flagship model delivers human-like conversational fluency while eliminating hallucinations, powering AI agents in production environments where accuracy is non-negotiable.

Co-founders Dan Klein (UC Berkeley AI professor) and Dan Roth (previously sold agentic AI company to Microsoft) lead the company from Mountain View, California.
