Two European startups building artificial intelligence tools for data capture and verification have closed pre-seed rounds, according to reporting by EU-Startups and Tech.eu.
Tellia, a Paris-based voice AI assistant for agriculture founded in 2024, raised €4.3 million (about $5 million) in a pre-seed round led by Revent. Grey Silo Ventures, the corporate venture arm of Cereal Docks Group, along with Jeriko (operated by Techmind) and Fund F, also took part. The company's technology allows farmers, agronomists and field teams to record and use their data by speaking, capturing spoken input, structuring it and interpreting it into a usable form. According to EU-Startups, chief executive and co-founder Coline Labadie de Faÿ said the company built an interface rather than another platform seeking to own all the data. The funding will support development of what the company calls an agentic layer between field operations and the wider AgTech stack, as well as team growth in the US and Europe.
