The Israeli startup 42AI, based in Tel Aviv, has emerged from stealth after raising approximately $62.5 million to $63 million in total funding, including a $5 million seed round. It is developing Large Behavioral Models trained on the actual choices and actions of individuals and institutions, rather than relying only on their stated intentions. Its objective is to estimate behavioral probabilities, including in unprecedented situations, in order to improve agentic systems that act on behalf of users. The company employs between 11 and 50 people and is addressing what it calls the “Alignment Trap,” but it has not yet announced a public product launch or customer partnerships. The sources of behavioral data and the terms of its use remain unspecified, while the lack of external benchmarks makes it impossible to assess performance yet.
