Plurai said Wednesday it raised $13 million in seed funding for a platform that simulates companies' digital systems to test and improve AI agents. Team8 led the round, with participation from U&I, Velocity and Mercer, TechCrunch reported.

The platform creates a digital replica of a company's knowledge base and tools, maps possible agent workflows, and uses those paths to evaluate failures and prepare fixes. It works alongside tools including Claude Code, Codex, Copilot and Cursor.

Co-founder Ilan Kadar says Plurai also aims to use the resulting data to train smaller, open-weight models for individual customers. Its claims of better performance at lower cost come from tests conducted with Nvidia and Nebius.
