Óbuda University’s venture capital firm invests in its former students: Argus Archive set to grow with OUVC investment

Obuda Uni Venture Capital (OUVC) has invested in Argus Archive Ltd., a company developing an AI-powered communications archiving and compliance platform primarily for the financial sector. Alongside OUVC, private angel investors are participating in the funding round, while the company’s founders are also contributing their own capital to support its continued growth.

Argus Archive records and archives various forms of corporate communication, including phone calls, online meetings, emails and chat messages. Using artificial intelligence, the platform also analyses these communications in real time, allowing compliance risks to be identified as conversations take place. This is particularly important in the financial sector, where regulatory compliance helps protect customers and strengthen trust in the market.

The founders bring extensive experience in this field. Gábor Móczár previously co-founded and built Verba Technologies, which was acquired by Verint in 2017. Péter Krasznai and Norbert Kakas also worked at Verba Technologies, and both are alumni of Óbuda University. They graduated in Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering, respectively, from the university’s predecessor institution in Székesfehérvár. The fourth founder, Joshua Wood, is responsible for cloud infrastructure and security.

“I have been working in this market for more than 25 years, and during that time, the way we communicate in business has fundamentally changed. We are building Argus Archive for this new world. We are particularly pleased that Óbuda University's venture capital firm, OUVC, is joining us as an investor, and we hope to work closely together in the future in the fields of artificial intelligence and research and development,”
Gábor Móczár
Founder, Argus Archive
“In Argus Archive, we found an experienced team with a proven track record in this market. They have previously built and successfully exited a technology company on the international stage. It is especially valuable to us that two of the founders graduated from Óbuda University. This is a great example of how university education, international experience and a technology company with significant growth potential can come together."
Veszna Várhelyi
Investment Director, OUVC

Argus Archive will primarily use the new investment to accelerate product development and prepare for international expansion. Its plans include expanding the range of supported communication channels, further developing the platform’s AI capabilities and growing the team.

In the longer term, the company aims to build an internationally competitive platform capable of managing and interpreting information generated across an organisation’s various communication channels in a unified way. This would allow the technology to be applied beyond compliance to other business areas in the future.
