Nexxa.ai

Nexxa.ai builds Multi-Agent Systems for the heavy industries the world relies on powered by a combination of computer use AI and AI tools like ml/computer vision. Tech companies have automated workflows for years—but industrial operations still rely on massive human labor forces to handle processes in fragmented systems. Human operatedmission-critical workflows in non-tech industries far exceed the number in tech which leads to a massive opportunity for automation. Cookie-cutter solutions & agent builders don’t solve the problem due to lack of technical expertise and custom tools in these industries. Nexxa specialized AI agents take over the work of entire teams in industrial operations. Our computer use agents integrate with legacy systems and execute complex processes in the existing infrastructure of our customers. We build proprietary computer vision models that augment existing computer use agents so that the models understand the custom software environments of our customers. | $9M / Seed / Jan 21, 2026 | |
