As AI agents multiply, Modern Relay targets the missing layer connecting people, data, and decisions across the enterprise.
Modern Relay today announced a $3 million funding round from Point Nine, Emerge, Amino Collective, Common Magic, and angels, including Charlie Songhurst (board member at Meta), Michael Boehler (former BioNTech executive), and Thomas Clozel (co-founder of OWKIN). Employees are already running multiple agents to draft research, ship code, and handle day-to-day operations.
The moment those agents touch anything cross-functional, they hit the same wall: organisational context is scattered across documents, chats, legacy databases, and knowledge that was never written down.
Without a shared layer where people and agents can work from the same facts and rules, every department automates in isolation.
Modern Relay is building the infrastructure to fix this. Its system gives organisations a shared foundation for how the company actually works (its people, policies, data, and decisions) so that software and teams coordinate from the same reality. That makes it possible to route the right information to the right actor at the right time, while governing what changes, who approves it, and how work evolves over time.
“Every company will soon rely on a growing number of agents across all departments,” said Ragnor Comerford, co-founder of Modern Relay.
“Without a shared foundation connecting them, those systems create more fragmentation than leverage. We’re building the layer that lets organisations preserve context, coordinate work, and stay in control.”
“We backed Modern Relay because Ragnor and Aaron understood the fundamentals of this new reality early,” said Ricardo Sequerra, Partner at Point Nine.
“The bottleneck has moved from model capability to organisational infrastructure. They’re building the operational backbone for how AI actually works inside a company.”
As AI embeds deeper into enterprise operations, that foundation becomes the most valuable asset a company has. Nothing this central to how a company operates should live inside someone else’s platform, which is why Modern Relay runs entirely on infrastructure the customer owns.
Founded in 2025 by Ragnor Comerford and Aaron Goh, the company is headquartered in San Francisco and Barcelona.
The company just released its first open-source product, Omnigraph – a Git-style graph database built for a world where agents are first-class operators. It lets people and agents branch, propose changes in parallel, and merge approved updates back into a canonical graph.
