Paris-based Omniscient has raised $4.1 million in pre-seed funding led by Seedcamp, with additional investors including Drysdale, Plug and Play, MS&AD, Raise, and xdeck. The company was founded by Arnaud d’Estienne and Mehdi Benseghir, both formerly of McKinsey. Omniscience's platform ingests 100,000 sources and then synthesises them into a two-minute executive briefing updated in real time. The firm claims its AI-native approach is 50 times faster than legacy manual monitoring workflows. The funding will be used to engineering hires, product development, and commercial rollout.
