AI Video Privacy Company Pimloc Raises $5 Million for Global Expansion

Insider Brief

  • AI video privacy firm Pimloc has raised $5 million in new funding led by Amadeus Capital Partners and Edge Ventures to accelerate global expansion, particularly across the U.S. and Europe, amid surging demand for secure and compliant video solutions.
  • Pimloc’s Secure Redact platform has seen 120% year-over-year growth and is used in sectors ranging from healthcare to public safety, helping organizations detect and anonymize sensitive visual content at scale; the platform has anonymized nearly half a billion PII instances to date.
  • With rising scrutiny around visual data privacy, Pimloc plans to deepen its ecosystem integrations and expand into new use cases, including screen redaction and fintech, as it scales operations and strengthens its position as a leader in privacy-first AI infrastructure.

PRESS RELEASE – Pimloc, the leading AI video privacy and analytics company, is accelerating its global expansion across the United States, Europe, and beyond as demand surges for privacy-first video and data intelligence. To fuel this growth, Pimloc has secured $5 million in strategic investment led by Amadeus Capital Partners and Edge Ventures with Zetta Venture Partners, MD One, and Symvan Capital.

Video is now the dominant – and most sensitive – form of data, and organizations must navigate increasingly complex demands around its transparency, compliance, and security. The global surveillance market reached $73.8 billion in 2024, with video analytics projected to grow to $94.6 billion by 2034. In the U.S., FOIA requests hit a record 1.5 million last year, while across Europe, rising cybersecurity concerns are intensifying scrutiny over how visual data is captured, stored, and shared.

Pimloc is scaling to meet that demand, with over 120% year-on-year growth in adoption of its Secure Redact SaaS platform, which leverages AI to automatically detect and anonymize sensitive content in video, audio, screens, and imagery.

“This is a pivotal moment for Pimloc,” said Simon Randall, CEO of Pimloc. “We’re scaling rapidly into new sectors, regions, and multimodal workflows, and this investment is a strong endorsement of the platform we’ve built and the category we’re defining. Each investor brings strategic insight – whether in AI, industry-specific domains, or international expansion – that goes well beyond capital. Their backing strengthens our ability to grow thoughtfully, unlock new high-impact use cases, and deliver the infrastructure the world needs for privacy-first AI.”

Trusted Across Sectors, Built to Scale

Secure Redact is already trusted across law enforcement, healthcare, education, insurance, transport, and retail sectors via SaaS, APIs and private cloud deployments, to meet rising privacy, transparency, and compliance demands at scale. Built entirely in-house, the platform has already anonymized nearly half a billion instances of personally identifiable information (PII).

That trust is also fueling an expansive channel partner network, with strong integrations already in place with Microsoft, Eagle Eye Networks, Milestone Systems, Rhombus Systems and more.

And it’s delivering results. In one deployment, an infrastructure organization used Secure Redact to process more than 1 million images, transforming how they meet internal privacy protocols. In another, users cut redaction time from over 8 hours to just 30 minutes, accelerating compliance in modern, high-volume video workflows.

Recent enhancements, like intelligent screen redaction, underscore Pimloc’s continued investment in expanding the platform’s real-world capabilities in lockstep with customer needs.

Strategic Investors Back Pimloc’s Global Privacy Mission

Collectively, Amadeus Capital Partners, Edge, Zetta Venture Partners, MD One, and Symvan Capital offer deep expertise across AI, cybersecurity, national infrastructure, and new markets like fintech and creative content compliance – bolstering Pimloc’s mission to set the global standard for privacy-first intelligence across every sector where sensitive data is captured, analyzed, and shared.

“As AI matures, trust, control, and accountability become paramount,” said Nick Kingsbury, Partner at Amadeus Capital Partners. “Pimloc has built a platform that’s both technically sophisticated and commercially proven, with strong momentum across sectors and regions. We’re excited to back their global growth as Secure Redact becomes foundational infrastructure for privacy-first video intelligence.”

“Edge Investments is very pleased to co-lead Pimloc’s latest investment round as the company enters a pivotal phase of global expansion,” said Hugo Sunnucks, Investment Manager at Edge Investments. “Under Simon Randall’s leadership, Pimloc has built an outstanding platform that enables large-scale, highly accurate video redaction, a capability that is becoming increasingly vital across a wide variety of sectors. Their pace of innovation, combined with a clear and urgent mission, is transforming how organisations handle sensitive visual data in a privacy-first world.”

“Pimloc is defining a new category at the intersection of AI, privacy, and video intelligence,” said Mark Gorenberg, Managing Director at Zetta Venture Partners. “Established in multiple vertical markets in Europe, Secure Redact is already solving mission-critical problems for customers at scale, and we believe Pimloc is in a strong position to lead globally as organizations seek practical, privacy-first solutions.”

With rising global demand and the backing of mission-aligned investors, Pimloc is entering a new phase of commercial expansion. The company will scale its presence across privacy-critical sectors – from healthcare and public safety to insurance, education, and transportation – while deepening ecosystem integrations and advancing into high-growth use cases such as screen redaction, creative content compliance, and fintech workflows.
