SignSplit raises $400M seed round at $1B valuation, exits stealth
October 5, 2026
Raised
$400M
The startup turns personal data into a licensable asset, betting AI's next bottleneck is consented human data, not compute.
- SignSplit emerged from stealth with a $400 million strategic seed round led by W Group, valuing the company at $1 billion.
- SignSplit's platform lets people and institutions protect, license and get paid for their data, work and likeness, creating 'signed data' with consent and provenance attached.
- The financing pairs capital with a multi-year package of strategic resources from W Group to support SignSplit's global rollout.
- Founded in 2024 by Glib Denisov and CEO Alessandro Monterosso, who previously co-founded clinical-data startup PatchAi, sold in 2021.
- Lead backer W Group is a global fintech and technology ecosystem serving more than 40 million users.
- As AI models increasingly train on real-world human data, infrastructure that formalizes consent and compensation could reshape who captures value from that data.
