Xceptor has joined the Microsoft Agentic Launchpad to accelerate the development of artificial intelligence systems.

The programme, created in collaboration with NVIDIA and WeTransact, provides resources and infrastructure to deploy autonomous agents at scale.
The provider of data automation for capital markets was one of 13 innovators selected from a pool of more than 500 applicants to receive technical enablement and market support.

Dan Reid, chief technology officer and founder, said that joining the launchpad helps the firm to fast-track plans for agentic AI while maintaining its commitment to security and governance.

Integration of these agents will focus on automating document extraction and addressing settlement failures within the existing software-as-a-service platform.
