Lium Raises $5.5M Seed

Lium, a Dallas-based software company, has announced that it raised $5.5 million in seed funding. The company, which specializes in an AI platform that makes highly complex datasets accessible through natural language, emerged from stealth to commercialize its technology for industrial and scientific sectors.

Lium raised this funding from SJF Ventures, Wavemaker 360, Reach Capital, and GC&H Investments.

The funding will support the commercial launch of the company's platform, which is designed to process fragmented datasets into structures that AI systems can reliably analyze for industries including energy, geospatial analytics, space, engineering, and manufacturing.

Founded in 2024 by Josh Knutson, Ryan Thill, and Ward Vuillemot, Lium provides an agentic harness that enables organizations to interact with challenging datasets, such as seismic surveys and satellite imagery, using plain English to foster improved institutional knowledge.
