We’ve raised over $100M to create AI customer support that doesn’t sound like AI slop.
Introducing Gorgias AI Agent 3.0: the first AI customer support that’s better than any human.

Congratulations to @immad & the @Mercury team on their $200M Series D!
We first backed @Mercury over 5 years ago, when @plevine, @rajeevdham, @JasonRBrooke & the team believed it would become the defining banking platform for tech founders. Today, with 300k+ customers, including 1 in 3 U.S. startups, they've delivered on that vision.
We're proud to continue the journey alongside them. Read more: cnbc.com/2026/05/20/fintech-…

🎉 Congrats to EliseAI co-founders Minna Song (CEO), Tony Stoyanov (CTO) and the entire team on the $75M in Series D and $1B+ valuation!
Nearly half of rental inquiries remain unanswered, and those addressed often face delays exceeding 24 hours, leading to significant financial waste for property owners and time lost for residents.
EliseAI is solving this challenge with its conversational AI platform by automating property workflows and communications with renters throughout their entire journey. EliseAI has now extended its support to the healthcare industry by fully automating non-clinical tasks. 🚀
We’re looking forward to teaming up with fellow investors @NavitasCapital, @p72vc, DivcoWest Ventures, and Koch Real Estate Investments.
