Ada Ventures led the seed financing for the workplace transparency platform, with participation from Auxxo Female Catalyst Fund and HERmesa.
"Until now, there has been nowhere to go to find out which companies offer the working environment that someone wants or needs"
The London-based conversational AI provider raised its seed capital in four weeks.
"OpenDialog will finally enable businesses and consumers to realize the game-changing potential of conversational AI – moving beyond the often painful experiences delivered by current chatbots and AI assistants. The market has been crying out for a solution like this, one that not only drives real operational efficiencies but also enhances and joins up customer experience across a wide range of channels."
The funding round was backed by Railpen and managed by Barclays Bank PLC.
"This investment continues Railpen’s strategy of investing in high quality, innovative growth companies for the long term, which supports our purpose to secure our members’ future."
The pre-seed round was backed by Jenson Funding Partners and Sequoia to fund international expansion and new subject development.
"There’s a serious gap in the quality of education that is available to students. Tutoring costs between £50 and £150 per session, so a huge portion of the population simply can’t afford tutors in the traditional format. This is why we’ve created an affordable model with a digital design. Having the full support of Jenson, and now joining the Sequoia accelerator, we’re excited about the road ahead."
The investment round was led by Una Terra to expand global reach and develop new sorting capabilities.
"Waste has been recognised as the fourth biggest contributor to climate change, yet the data surrounding it has been sparse at best. This is a huge missed opportunity. We are putting a monetary value on waste – something that is perceived to have a negative value. Providing access to granular waste data can also have a big impact at a macro level, helping to shape government policies around recycling and influencing the decisions producers make about their packaging."
