The pre-seed round was led by Bijan Morvaridi to support product development and regulatory engagement.
OpenFi provides a conversational AI platform designed to automate lead generation and customer nurture. Its technology handles interactions across messaging channels to help businesses scale sales operations.
OpenFi has secured £500k in a pre-seed funding round led by Bijan Morvaridi, with additional participation from Fortune Green Capital and Foundation Ventures. The company intends to direct the fresh capital towards expanding its product team, developing the second version of its platform, integrating with a domestic financial institution, and collaborating with the FCA on compliance matters.
The London-based business operates SalesTalkAI, a conversational agent that manages lead qualification and customer retention via WhatsApp, email, and social media. Following a successful pilot with a mortgage brokerage, the platform aims to help firms handle customer service and sales scaling without expanding headcount.
