Kausable, a Heidelberg-based AI startup, has raised €12 million in seed funding to further develop a reasoning-first AI model designed to adapt to changing conditions without retraining.
The round was led by UVC Partners and Entourage, with follow-on backing from HTGF and Mätch VC. The company has ties to Heidelberg University and Black Forest Labs, placing it within a growing cluster of frontier AI research in Germany.
Kausable is building what it describes as a causal world model that can learn rapidly on its own and adjust to new situations with limited additional data. The startup recently introduced TipPFN, a zero-shot forecasting model aimed at complex and dynamic systems.
The new funding will be used to grow Kausable’s nine-person team and advance its rapid-learning frontier model, as investors continue to watch European efforts to build more independent AI infrastructure and research capabilities.
