Jedify closed a $24 million Series A funding round led by Norwest Venture Partners, with participation from S Capital VC, Cerca Partners, Oceans Ventures, and strategic investor Snowflake Ventures. The company provides context and business knowledge to AI agents, enabling them to operate more effectively within enterprise environments. The funding reflects growing investor interest in infrastructure that bridges AI models and real-world business operations.

CopilotKit, a Seattle-based startup focused on helping developers deploy AI agents directly within applications, has raised $27 million in Series A funding. The round was led by Glilot Capital, NFX, and SignalFire. The funding underscores growing developer demand for tools that embed AI capabilities into existing software products rather than requiring separate AI interfaces.

The Pentagon has signed agreements with Nvidia, Microsoft, and AWS to deploy artificial intelligence on classified military networks. The move reflects the Department of Defense's strategy to diversify its AI vendor portfolio following a contentious dispute with Anthropic over model usage terms. These deals represent a significant expansion of commercial AI infrastructure into sensitive government systems and signal the DOD's commitment to maintaining multiple supplier relationships for critical defense applications.
