About
Apaluma is an Albuquerque, New Mexico-based AI data platform that digitizes and organizes fragmented government records, with an initial focus on environmental datasets spanning air, water, energy, and waste 12. The company transforms regulatory records—permits, filings, enforcement actions, and other documents that typically live in PDFs, scanned files, and incompatible databases—into a connected ecosystem that is searchable, location-mapped, and governed by each agency’s own rules 12. Founder and CEO Alicia J. Keyes previously ran economic development for the state of New Mexico 12. On 2026-07-16, Apaluma announced the close of a $5.55 million seed round co-led by Crosslink Capital and Kickstart, co-led by Haven Ventures and Overwater Ventures, with additional participation from Orange DAO and NM Vintage Fund 12.
