Seattle-based startup Tensor9 has raised a $4 million seed round to reshape how enterprise software, especially <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/emerging-markets/25/01/43138024/alibaba-cloud-unveils-new-ai-tools-and-language-models-to-empower-global-developers">AI tools</a>, is deployed inside high-security environments.

Founded in 2023, Tensor9 has already attracted the attention of heavy-hitting investors. Wing VC led the round, joined by Level Up Ventures, Model Ventures' Devang Sachdev, and NVAngels, a group of ex-Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) professionals, according to<a href="https://www.geekwire.com/2025/amazon-vets-land-4m-for-seattle-data-security-startup-tensor9/"> GeekWire</a>.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Tensor9 Is Solving the Enterprise Deployment Barrier</h2>
According to<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/05/14/tensor9-helps-vendors-deploy-their-software-into-any-environment-using-digital-twins/"> TechCrunch</a>, Tensor9 is focused on solving a growing problem: how to let vendors deliver advanced AI software to enterprise clients without forcing sensitive data out of its original environment.
TechCrunch says that the company enables vendors to install their software directly into a client's existing tech infrastructure, whether it lives in the cloud, on-premise, or on bare metal servers. Instead of shipping data to a software-as-a-service platform, vendors can now deploy code inside a customer's walls, which is crucial for industries like finance, healthcare, and government.
Tensor9 uses a digital twin architecture to make this possible. Each customer environment is mirrored through a virtual replica, which allows vendors to monitor, support, and update deployed software without breaching any privacy firewalls. Logs, metrics, and even hardware issues are fed back to this virtual twin in real time, GeekWire says.

&#8220;You can't just throw a piece of software over the wall, or it's very difficult to throw a piece of software over the wall, and know what's going on, be able to find issues, debug them, fix them,&#8221; Tensor9 CEO Ten-Pow told TechCrunch. &#8220;They see it running, they can debug it, they can log in and understand what the issues are and fix them.&#8221;
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Bootstrapped Beginnings To High-Profile Traction</h2>
Tensor9 began as a bootstrapped project after Ten-Pow realized that System and Organization Controls 2 compliance wasn't the real obstacle stopping startups from closing enterprise deals. Instead, companies wanted software that could run locally, under their own control, with no risk to data sovereignty, TechCrunch reports.
That insight became the foundation for Tensor9. In the same year the company launched, Ten-Pow brought on two former AWS colleagues, Matt Michie and Matt Shanker, as founding engineers, TechCrunch says. According to the company&#8217;s<a href="https://www.tensor9.com/company.html"> website</a>, Dan Armendariz, who also comes from Amazon, is a founding engineer as well. Shanker brings additional experience from Epic and Twitter, while chief engineer Matt Michie's background includes work at Amazon, Meta (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/META#NASDAQ">META</a>), Uber (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>), and Twitter.
Tensor9 is currently working with AI companies like 11x, Retell AI, and Dyna AI, which need to deliver privacy-preserving solutions to major clients in finance and data-heavy sectors, according to TechCrunch.&nbsp;

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Funding To Expand Into More Verticals</h2>
With $4 million secured, Tensor9 plans to hire additional engineers and refine its platform for wider industry use, as detailed on the company's website. TechCrunch says that the team is already seeing interest beyond voice AI, branching into enterprise search, data management, and large-scale database software.
&#8220;We have a simple model but underneath the covers there's a lot of complexity that makes that happen, hard technical challenges that we've solved to make that happen,&#8221; Ten-Pow told TechCrunch. &#8220;I think that was one of the things that helped us convince the investors to invest in us.&#8221;
As data privacy rules tighten and AI adoption grows, startups like Tensor9 may be able to redefine how intelligent software reaches the enterprise. Their hybrid approach of marrying cloud-like control with on-prem security could be the model that finally unlocks enterprise AI at scale.

Visa Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/V#NYSE">V</a>) and Mastercard Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MA#NYSE">MA</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/credit-card" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fees drew scrutiny</a> from European Union antitrust regulators. 
European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde emphasized the need to reduce its dependence on foreign payment providers, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-05-23/visa-mastercard-fees-hit-by-new-round-of-eu-antitrust-scrutiny?embedded-checkout=true&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> on Friday, citing unnamed sources familiar with the matter. 
Regulators surveyed market participants about the fees they impose on financial institutions that provide card-payment services to retailers using Visa and Mastercard networks. The stocks are trading lower on Friday.

Mastercard and&nbsp;Visa have long attracted global civil complaints for charging consumers and businesses to use their cards.
Last December, Mastercard <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/24/12/42321510/mastercard-settles-uk-antitrust-lawsuit-for-250-million" rel="noreferrer noopener">agreed to settle</a> a $250.35 million (200 million pounds) lawsuit filed by millions of U.K. consumers alleging that the company unfairly imposed exorbitant fees on card transactions.
In 2019, the EU fined Mastercard 570.6 million euros ($646 million) for artificially raising the costs of card payments in the region. Regulators also approved a pact with the card companies that required them to reduce fees for foreigners shopping in the area.
Analysts rerated the stocks after their quarterly results.
RBC Capital analyst&nbsp;Daniel R. Perlin noted that Visa's <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/04/45118922/visas-q2-results-reflect-steady-us-spending-despite-market-uncertainty-analyst-highlights-strength-in-payment-volumes" rel="noreferrer noopener">second-quarter results</a> provided insight into consumer health. Adjusted U.S. spending volumes remained steady, although some category shifts and a slight slowdown in cross-border activity were observed.
JP Morgan&nbsp;analyst Tien-tsin Huang noted that Mastercard posted stable, mid-teen organic revenue growth in <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/05/45175986/mastercards-cross-border-surge-and-pricing-actions-drive-analyst-optimism" rel="noreferrer noopener">the first quarter</a>. The upside was broad-based, though management highlighted currency volatility and lower incentives as the internal surprise, per the analyst. However, cross-border decelerated slightly more than expected off a higher fourth-quarter base. Assuming no material macro shocks, the analyst feels confident in near-term numbers given pricing actions supporting growth.
Price Actions: At the last check on Wednesday, MA stock was down 1.07% at $564.04, and V is down 1.34%.

<h3>How Does Chart Industries P/E Compare to Other Companies?</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Chart Industries has a better P/E ratio of 31.63 than the aggregate P/E ratio of 26.95 of the Machinery industry. Ideally, one might believe that Chart Industries Inc. might perform better in the future than it's industry group, but it's probable that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1748019633_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.
