London AI governance startup AI Score raises €4.6m seed led by Fuel Ventures
The company, incorporated in April 2025 and founded by an ex-NCSC and a former City lawyer, sells software for tracking and controlling how businesses use generative and agentic AI. Companies House shows Gallos Technologies registered as a person with significant control.
AI Score, a London company selling software to track and control how businesses use generative and agentic AI, has raised €4.6m in seed funding in a round led by Fuel Ventures.
The figure, reported as $5.4m, was announced this month. The company says the money will go on product development and expanding operations.
What the filings show
The company is registered as AISCORE LIMITED, company number 16381026, incorporated on 11 April 2025, with a registered office at 86-90 Paul Street in London. That matches the 2025 founding date given in the announcement.
Companies House records show a set of filings consistent with an equity round having been put in place earlier this year. On 15 May 2026 the company filed resolutions covering the allotment of securities and the removal of pre-emption rights, along with a new 65-page memorandum and articles of association, the length of which is itself typical of investor articles replacing a standard incorporation set. On 28 April 2026 it filed a confirmation statement and a PSC02 registering Gallos Technologies Limited as a person with significant control.
No return of allotment confirming the announced round has appeared on the register at the time of writing, so the €4.6m figure rests on the company’s own announcement rather than on a filing.
Who is behind it
The founders are Alex Harland, chief executive, who was part of the founding team at the National Cyber Security Centre, and Benita Tibb, a former City lawyer. Jonathan Kewley is named as a co-founder and adviser.
Alongside Fuel Ventures, the round includes founding investor Gallos Technologies and angel backing from Robert Mann, founding partner at Marshall Bridge Ventures, Mo El Husseiny, managing partner at Ventura Capital, and Alan Morgan, co-founder of MMC Ventures.
The advisory bench is unusually heavy for a seed-stage company. It includes Sir Jeremy Fleming, the former director of GCHQ, and Colin Bell, chair of Starling Bank and former head of HSBC Bank Europe.
The pitch
Harland’s stated argument is that AI operates at a scale and level of automation traditional governance was not built for, and that organisations need to move quickly without losing visibility or control. Bell, in the announcement, described the company as building an approach that can turn governance from a constraint into a driver of value.
The positioning puts AI Score in a category that has drawn steady European funding through 2026, covering AI agent security, monitoring and deployment controls. Comparable recent raises include Geordie AI in the UK, NeuralTrust in Spain and Blockbrain in Germany.
Whether governance tooling becomes a standalone market or a feature of the platforms it monitors is the open question for everyone in it. A seed round led by Fuel Ventures with a former GCHQ director on the advisory board is a bet on the former.
