Veritus, a San Francisco-based fintech startup developing voice-first AI agent solutions for the consumer lending industry, has raised $10.1 million in a seed funding round to expand its platform that automates regulated borrower engagement across voice, text, email and chat channels. The capital will support accelerated product development, expansion of engineering and go-to-market teams, and deeper integrations with lenders and financial institutions seeking compliant AI-driven engagement tools. Co-founded by Joshua March, David Schlesinger and Joey Stein following incubation in Y Combinator’s Summer 2025 batch, Veritus designs AI agents that integrate with loan-management systems to support key workflows including application-funnel engagement, early-stage delinquency outreach and adaptive identity verification while maintaining bank-grade security controls. The funding underscores rising investor interest in specialized AI interfaces that help traditional lenders modernize origination and servicing operations with autonomous, conversational automation.
