Hayden AI, a startup seeking to pull value out of bus-mounted camera footage, has raised its second investment fundraising round in less than a year.
The $4.5 million funding round follows a $5 million seed round the company announced in October, bringing Hayden’s total fundraising to $9.5 million.
The company is only about two years old but has moved quickly to grow its reputation and resources — on top of the investment rounds, Hayden has staffed up with big names such as former U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, who sits on the company’s board, and former Washington state CIO Stuart McKee, who serves as chief operating officer.
