Startups Weekly AI News
October 27 - November 4, 2025This week has been exciting for AI agent startups around the world. Companies are getting millions of dollars in funding to build technology that helps other businesses work smarter and faster.
One of the biggest stories is Accenture, a huge company, investing in Lyzr, a startup from New Jersey in the United States. Lyzr makes technology that lets banks and insurance companies build AI agents - smart robots that can do jobs like approving loans, helping customers, and processing insurance claims automatically. This partnership shows that big companies believe in AI agents as the future of business.
Another interesting startup called The Prompting Company just raised $6.5 million to help businesses get noticed by AI chatbots. Right now, when people shop online, they often ask AI assistants like ChatGPT for product recommendations instead of using Google. This startup helps companies make sure their products show up in those AI suggestions.
In the healthcare industry, startups are building AI agents to help doctors and hospitals work better. One company called Autonomize AI created a new workspace where hospitals can design smart workflows using AI agents. Another company called Brook.ai raised $28 million to help hospitals monitor patients remotely.
The United States isn't the only place with exciting AI startup news. In Israel, many startups are working on agentic AI technology that helps companies automate their work. These Israeli companies are getting funding from investors around the world who believe in their ideas.
What makes this week special is that everyone - from big banks to hospitals to stores - is realizing that AI agents can help them do their jobs better and faster. Startups are racing to build the tools that make this possible, and investors are giving them billions of dollars to grow their businesses.
