According to Sifted, Conduct’s ambition to 'power all of the enterprise software of the Global 200' is audacious, but the startup’s success will likely hinge on its ability to navigate the complexities of legacy systems. While the funding and backing from firms like Index Ventures and SAP suggest confidence in Conduct’s vision, the challenge of integrating AI into decades-old custom business logic cannot be overstated. Enterprises are notoriously risk-averse, and the platform’s effectiveness will depend on its ability to deliver tangible, measurable improvements without disrupting existing workflows. The next milestone to watch will be how Conduct scales its team and product to meet the demands of its ambitious roadmap.

Editor's Take
As reported by Sifted, Conduct, a London-based startup founded by former Palantir engineers, has raised $60 million in Series A funding to build an AI operating system for enterprise software. While the pitch of streamlining complex, legacy systems is compelling, the real test will be whether Conduct can deliver on its promise to make enterprise-level changes 'at the snap of a finger.' Skepticism is warranted given the notoriously slow pace of enterprise software adoption and the difficulty of integrating AI into deeply entrenched systems.
““We can then enable the teams internally, and external consultants, to make changes at the snap of a finger instead of taking months combing through the code bases, speaking to business users and reverse-engineering what’s going on.””
