Hirundo, the first AI startup specializing in machine unlearning, has raised an $8 million seed round to combat one of AI’s most pressing challenges—how to make AI forget. Backed by Maverick Ventures Israel, with support from SuperSeed, Alpha Intelligence Capital, AI.FUND, Tachles VC, and Plug and Play Tech Center, Hirundo is pioneering tech that retroactively removes biased, malicious, or confidential data and hallucinations from trained AI models—without retraining and without degrading performance.

As enterprises increasingly customize foundation models like GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and DeepSeek, they face a critical challenge: vendor dependency. While techniques such as fine-tuning, reinforcement learning, and human-in-the-loop feedback unlock tailored performance, these investments are often bound to third-party providers.

As enterprises race to deploy AI at scale, the need for governance, security, and trust in AI systems becomes critical. To address this, Trust3 AI has launched Trust AI for Databricks, a purpose-built trust layer designed to support responsible AI deployment within Data Intelligence Platforms.
