Yuanli Intelligence, a company specializing in enterprise AI agents, has recently declared the successful closure of a seed funding round amounting to US$8 million. This funding round was spearheaded by BlueRun Ventures, with additional investment from Lighthouse Entrepreneurs Fund.

Established by Zhang Fan, the ex-Chief Operating Officer (COO) of Zhipu AI, Yuanli Intelligence is committed to creating self-improving AI agent "employees" utilizing commercial reinforcement learning technology, thereby propelling the real-world application of AI Agent technology. As a seasoned entrepreneur in the AI sector, Zhang Fan brings a wealth of industry knowledge to the table. He highlighted that the prevailing Agent-to-Business (Agent to B) model encounters challenges like elevated deployment expenses and sluggish adaptation to various scenarios. In contrast, reinforcement learning presents a fresh paradigm for AI Agent development.

Yuanli Intelligence's primary aim is to merge business-specific explicit knowledge with implicit knowledge, empowering AI to perpetually evolve in intricate business decision-making environments. At present, AI Agents powered by reinforcement learning are emerging as a novel trend within the global AI landscape. Yuanli Intelligence has already forged alliances with several prominent industry players to collectively delve into the practical deployment of AI Agents.
