SynthBee emerges from stealth with $100M for regulated-industry collaboration
The startup is pitching “collaborative intelligence” for teams working under strict compliance rules.
Regulated industries want AI gains, but they also need clear governance. That’s pushing startups to build products around permissions, audit trails, and controlled knowledge sharing.
What to know
- Collaboration tools in regulated environments are often “workflow plus policy,” not just chat.
- Adoption tends to start with internal knowledge work (policy, compliance, ops) before expanding outward.
- The best products make security and governance feel invisible to day-to-day users.
