Oslo-based Cloudgeni has raised €1 million in a pre-seed round backed by Startuplab, Antler, byFounders Angel Collective, Vegard Gullaksen Veiteberg, and Jon Øyvind Eriksen.

Founded in 2024 by Davlet Dzhakishev and Iuliia Petryshyn Thuen, the startup is developing AI agents designed to handle the full lifecycle of cloud infrastructure work, including design, deployment, monitoring, incident response, and ongoing operations.

The new funding will be used to advance Cloudgeni’s platform as it targets a persistent bottleneck for software teams: managing increasingly complex cloud environments without dedicated infrastructure specialists.

The raise adds to a growing wave of investment in AI tools aimed at automating technical operations, as startups and enterprises look for ways to reduce infrastructure overhead and simplify cloud management.
