Prentis, a new AI startup backed by tech legends like Reid Hoffman and Marc Pincus, is raising $100M for a $1B valuation, aiming to revolutionize office work by building AI agents that handle real-world computer tasks—like processing insurance claims or customs paperwork—better than humans. Already locked in $50M+ contracts with healthcare and manufacturing giants, they’re betting their Hive-32B model, which outperforms OpenAI and Anthropic on key benchmarks, will outshine coding-focused AI. With a team of AI veterans—including founder Ritankar Das, who graduated college at 18—Prentis is racing to make routine workflows automated, efficient, and scalable, positioning itself as the next big leap in AI’s evolution.
