Slice raises $25M to modernise startup equity infrastructure
Tel Aviv-based Slice, a startup building AI-powered equity infrastructure, has raised $25 million in fresh funding as high-growth companies such as Wiz and Wayve adopt its platform to manage ownership and incentives more intelligently.
The new capital will be used to scale product development, deepen its AI infrastructure capabilities and expand go-to-market operations in North America and Europe, according to people familiar with the round. The raise underscores growing investor appetite for tools that can untangle complex cap tables, stock options and employee equity across global teams.
AI-driven approach to cap tables and incentives
Slice positions itself as an operating system for startup ownership, using AI algorithms to automate equity workflows, simulate dilution scenarios and ensure regulatory-grade accuracy across jurisdictions.
By ingesting legal documents, financing terms and employee data, the platform can surface real-time insights on valuation, dilution risk and vesting schedules. This is particularly attractive to fast-scaling companies like Wiz, the cloud security unicorn, and Wayve, the UK-based autonomous driving startup, which manage hundreds of stakeholders and multi-round financing structures.
For founders and finance teams, the promise is fewer manual spreadsheets, fewer legal errors and a clearer view of how every fundraising event or secondary sale affects long-term ownership.
Why equity infrastructure is becoming a strategic layer
As late-stage startups stay private longer and rely on complex financing instruments, demand is rising for robust equity infrastructure that can withstand due diligence from global investors and regulators.
Platforms like Slice are moving beyond basic cap table visualisation to become decision engines for compensation strategy, liquidity planning and corporate governance. By embedding analytics and automation, they aim to give founders, employees and investors a shared, audit-ready source of truth.
The adoption by high-profile customers such as Wiz and Wayve signals that AI-native equity management is shifting from a nice-to-have tool to a strategic requirement for scaling technology companies.
