About Us

It's hard to build a reliable system. It's harder to make sure that what you've built is really reliable. Synthesized is redefining software testing with agentic AI. Our platform automates test data, test cases, and test environments - empowering enterprise teams to ship faster, reduce compliance risks, and modernise QA at scale. Our products are used by some of the world's leading organizations, such as Deutsche Bank, UBS, the European Commission, and others. We're an ambitious VC-backed startup, having just gone through Series A with leading global investors including IQ Capital, Seedcamp, and Deutsche Bank. We have ambitious growth plans for 2025, and we are so keen for you to join us on the journey.
