nexos.ai, a trailblazing AI infrastructure company, has officially launched, emerging from stealth mode with $8 million in funding. The funding round was led by Index Ventures, with participation from Creandum and Dig Ventures, and positions nexos.ai as a key player addressing one of the most critical challenges businesses face in 2025: efficiently deploying, managing, and optimizing the increasingly intricate ecosystem of AI models across enterprises.
Founded in late 2024 by Tomas Okmanas and Eimantas Sabaliauskas, the duo behind multiple successful ventures, including Nord Security (valued at $3 billion), nexos.ai has garnered strong investor interest. The funding round included notable angel investors such as Olivier Pomel (CEO of Datadog), Sebastian Siemiatkowski (CEO of Klarna, via Flat Capital), Ilkka Paananen (CEO of Supercell), and Avishai Abrahami (CEO of Wix.com).
As organizations accelerate their adoption of AI, many encounter mounting challenges in managing diverse AI models, controlling operational costs, and ensuring consistent performance. nexos.ai emerged from Okmanas’ personal experience with these difficulties. Despite significant investment in AI—spending over $100,000 monthly on large language models (LLMs)—Okmanas struggled to integrate AI effectively across his companies. Conversations with peers revealed a common pain point: while businesses are eager to adopt AI, they often lack the infrastructure needed to create secure, scalable, and cost-efficient AI applications.

nexos.ai addresses this gap by introducing an AI operating system for enterprises, enabling seamless deployment and management of hundreds of AI models through a unified platform.
“Companies know that AI is an operational and competitive necessity, but they’re drowning in the challenges of managing multiple models, controlling costs and ensuring accurate and reliable performance,” said Okmanas, CEO and co-founder of nexos.ai. “At the same time, AI models are becoming increasingly autonomous and capable of handling complex tasks with minimal human intervention. We’ve built nexos.ai to be the enterprise-grade platform that makes working with AI as intuitive as working with human teams – providing the infrastructure and oversight to make sure these models perform at their best while remaining cost-effective and secure.”
Slated for launch in Q1 2025, the nexos.ai platform is already being piloted by leading international companies for diverse applications, including automated customer support. The platform connects users to over 200 AI models from industry leaders such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Meta, offering robust capabilities like:
- Smart model routing and load balancing to optimize costs and performance.
- Intelligent caching to reduce expenses for repeated queries.
- Comprehensive monitoring and analytics for efficient AI operations.
- Enterprise-grade security and compliance controls for peace of mind.
- Automated performance optimization across different model providers.
“nexos.ai is a critical solution for any enterprise deploying AI at scale, where managing the inherently complex ecosystem of large language models, AI agents, and applications with varying levels of autonomy becomes essential. The demand for such solutions is expected to grow exponentially in the coming months and years,” said Hannah Seal, Partner at Index Ventures. “Tomas and his team have consistently demonstrated their ability to tackle complex challenges by creating products that deliver elegant, simple solutions — and this one might be their most consequential yet.”
With its comprehensive capabilities and enterprise focus, nexos.ai is set to redefine how organizations deploy and optimize AI, helping them navigate the complexities of modern AI ecosystems with confidence and efficiency.
