Preesha Gehlot is a machine learning engineer and an Imperial College London graduate. She built the models that recommend content to Bloomberg Terminal users, and at Microsoft she worked on machine learning systems that flag unusual patterns in data. She has also published two papers on causality in large datasets at leading AI conferences, including AAAI 2026.
In late 2025 she co-founded Iridium Credit with Anthony Eden, whom she met at Imperial. As CTO she leads the technology. The software checks invoices against their supporting documents and confirms debts directly with the companies that owe them. It then tracks payments through to reconciliation.
In October 2026 Iridium Credit raised £2.3M ($3M) in a round co-led by Field Ventures and MGV. That brought its total funding to about $3.5M.
