Rippletide raises €4M to scale its next-generation AI agents
Rippletide: building trustworthy AI and taking off for the US
OneRagtime is proud to announce its investment in Rippletide, a French startup that has just raised €4 million in Seed funding. The round was joined by leading business angels from Meta, AWS, BCG, Loft Orbital, BDO and more.
Behind this new venture is Patrick Joubert, a well-known serial entrepreneur in the French tech ecosystem. After founding and exiting BEAMAP (acquired by Sopra Steria), Recast.AI (acquired by SAP), and Ponicode, he is once again tackling one of the biggest challenges in artificial intelligence: trust.
A technology to restore trust in AI
One of the biggest limitations of large language models today is their tendency to “hallucinate.” Rippletide has developed a proprietary technology that reduces these errors to below 1%, while ensuring decisions are always explainable and controlled. Its AI agents are designed to be 100% transparent, reliable, and safeguarded with strong guardrails.
This is a game-changer for large enterprises, which will finally be able to deploy AI agents at scale with the confidence that outputs are accurate, auditable, and production-ready.
A transatlantic ambition
Rippletide is not limiting itself to Europe. The company has already opened a hub in San Francisco, right at the heart of the AI revolution. Its goal: to build a strong transatlantic presence, serving both American and European enterprises with trustworthy, production-grade AI agents.
This positioning is strategic: at a time when enterprises are racing to scale AI adoption, Rippletide aims to become the go-to reference for explainable and enterprise-ready AI.
Why OneRagtime is investing
At OneRagtime, we back visionary entrepreneurs who tackle global challenges with cutting-edge technology. Rippletide perfectly embodies this ambition: a highly experienced team, a differentiated technology, and a massive global market.
As with our other investments, we are supporting Rippletide through our platform model and our club deal, which remains open to our investor community.
What’s next?
Rippletide’s journey is only beginning. With a proven team and a clear vision, the company is well positioned to become a major player in enterprise AI.
We are excited to support this next chapter and to partner with Patrick Joubert and Yann Bilien in building a future where AI is not only powerful, but also transparent and trustworthy.
