Alinia AI, a Barcelona-based alignment platform, has secured $2.4 million in Pre-Seed funding to revolutionize the safe and controlled deployment of generative AI in the enterprise landscape. Led by CEO Ariadna Font Llitjós and COO Carlos Muñoz Ferrandis, Alinia AI aims to address the critical challenges surrounding the adoption of generative AI, such as managing control, safety, and regulatory compliance.

In a world where the rapid adoption of generative AI poses significant risks, Alinia AI stands out as a beacon of innovation and responsibility. With the rise of regulatory efforts like the EU AI Act and Biden's Executive Order, companies are under increasing pressure to ensure the safety and reliability of their AI applications. Alinia AI's alignment platform offers a comprehensive solution to these challenges, enabling companies to deploy generative AI in a safe and inclusive manner.

Ariadna Font Llitjós, co-founder and CEO of Alinia AI, emphasizes the importance of alignment in ensuring that AI systems adhere to expected behaviors, policies, and regulatory requirements. Drawing on her experience at Twitter and IBM Watson, Font Llitjós brings a wealth of knowledge to Alinia AI, guiding the development of a platform that prioritizes governance and safety in LLM-powered applications.

Carlos Muñoz Ferrandis, co-founder and COO of Alinia AI, echoes Font Llitjós' sentiments, highlighting the non-negotiable nature of governance and safety in LLM development. With a team of experts and industry veterans, Alinia AI is poised to lead the way in creating a robust alignment process that safeguards against the unintended consequences of generative AI.

The recent funding round, led by Speedinvest and Precursor, underscores the industry's confidence in Alinia AI's mission. Notable angels, including Clem Délangue, Thom Wolf, Tom Preston, Xavier Amatriain, and Oriol Vinyals, have thrown their support behind Alinia AI, recognizing the company's unique approach to AI governance.

As Alinia AI continues to expand its team and develop its alignment platform, the future of generative AI deployment looks brighter than ever. With a focus on safety, regulatory compliance, and inclusivity, Alinia AI is paving the way for a new era of responsible AI innovation.
