MidLyr , the AI infrastructure platform redefining how financial institutions manage risk and operations, has raised 2.5 million in pre-seed funding led by Silicon Badia with participation from Wedbush Ventures, Hustle Fund , DCG , and Story Ventures.
MidLyr is building a new foundation for how banks and fintechs operate, one that is durable, compliant, and adaptive . Every process in a financial institution touches millions of customers and billions of dollars yet most are still governed by rigid workflows and manual controls. MidLyr brings intelligence and structure to this complexity through direct AI agent alignment to regulations , policies , and operational data , creating a new class of bank-grade automation that teams can trust. With MidLyr, banks can define policies, connect to internal data, and safely automate complex processes - from issue resolution to marketing asset reviews - all within compliant boundaries.
Banking is one of the largest sectors in the economy and 60-70 of its revenue is spent just keeping operations running. Despite this, there are still no fit-for-purpose tools for the people actually running those operations. Most solutions are either generic or naive about the nuance and complexity of bank environments. MidLyr's mission is to give bank operators the intelligent, compliant tools they deserve so they can serve customers better and reduce risk.
