Стартап Apaluma привлек 5,55 млн долларов для создания единой экосистемы государственных регуляторных данных

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M., July 21, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Apaluma, which transforms fragmented regulatory records into a unified ecosystem, today announced the closing of its $5.55 million seed funding round led by Crosslink Capital and Kickstart, co-led by Haven Ventures and Overwater Ventures, with Orange DAO and NM Vintage Fund as additional pre-seed and seed investors. Government agencies hold the data that shapes daily life: Permits, regulations, and environmental records are all public records. Most of it sits in PDFs, scanned ledgers, and incompatible databases. It exists, but no one can use it. Apaluma transforms fragmented regulatory records into one connected ecosystem. The records become searchable, secure, mapped to real-world locations, and governed by each agency's own rules. The platform is purpose-built for the full regulatory life cycle and serves analysts, scientists, and regulators who need answers in hours, not weeks. "With Apaluma, every record — from filing to enforcement — lives in one connected system," said Apaluma founder and CEO Alicia J. Keyes. "That unification expedites permitting, speeds up FOIA requests, streamlines agency operations, and makes the regulatory life cycle of a location coherent and actionable." "We invest in founders who understand a problem from the inside," said Gabby Contro of Crosslink Capital. "Alicia ran economic development for the state of New Mexico. She has sat at the nexus of sustainability and development. That firsthand insight is what convinced us that Apaluma can solve this long-fragmented problem for regulators and businesses."
