Celebrating Our Series A Funding: What It Means for the Future

We’re excited to announce that we’ve closed our Series A funding round, raising $100M to accelerate the growth of our product and expand our team. This milestone is a testament to our hard work, commitment, and the trust our investors have placed in us.

What is Series A?

Series A is the first significant round of venture capital financing for a startup. Typically, this funding round is focused on scaling the business and ensuring that the product-market fit is achieved. Investors in this round often come from venture capital firms and provide capital in exchange for equity.

"Series A is a critical point in a startup's journey—where we transform from a scrappy startup into a growth-oriented company."


The Journey So Far

Since launching in 2022, we’ve been on an incredible journey, driven by the goal of helping product teams build more effectively with the power of AI.

Some of our key achievements include:

  • Building a user base of over 10,000 product managers across 12 countries.
  • Launching three core features: AI-powered ideation, intelligent prioritization, and roadmap visualization.
  • Growing from a team of 5 to a team of 20 dedicated professionals.

Our Vision Moving Forward

Our vision remains unchanged: to make it easier for product teams to explore problems, ideate solutions, and plan roadmaps with AI as their trusted assistant. With this new round of funding, we’re doubling down on our mission to build an AI-native platform that changes how product management is done.

1. Global Expansion

We plan to take the product to more regions, helping product teams worldwide collaborate more efficiently.

2. New Product Features

We’re working on adding more features, including:

  • AI-powered competitive analysis
  • Automated OKR tracking
  • Deeper integrations with tools like Jira and Trello

3. Community Building

We aim to grow our community of product managers, founders, and AI enthusiasts who can help shape the future of the product.

How We Plan to Use the Funds

The $100M million raised in this Series A will be strategically invested across three key areas:

  1. Product Development
    We will enhance the AI capabilities, ensuring the platform becomes smarter and more intuitive for our users.

  2. Team Expansion
    We plan to hire across key roles including engineering, product, and customer success, growing our team from 20 to 50 by the end of the year.

  3. Go-to-Market Strategy
    A portion of the funds will be used to accelerate our marketing efforts and expand our presence in key markets, particularly North America and Europe.
