South Korean AI search company Liner has raised $36.1 million in a Series C led by LB Investment, bringing its reported total capital to $64.3 million. The company is seeking to expand enterprise sales of a product that retrieves source material for AI-generated answers rather than building foundation models. Liner says its technology is integrated into HUMAIN ONE, a Saudi government-backed enterprise AI platform, and plans to spend the new funding on R&D, infrastructure, hiring and expansion.
