$350M

Andreessen Horowitz and Bessemer Venture Partners led the financing, which values the company at $4bn.

"The industries where AI matters most are still not the ones getting the most attention. Housing has enormous problems to solve, and we've grown by going deeper with our customers until we've solved the root causes. Every year, our customers trust us with more of their operations, and that kind of trust is earned only by a company built to last. Andreessen Horowitz and Bessemer Venture Partners understand that, and they're the partners we want for the long term"
— Minna Song, CEO
Seed
£3.6M

The seed round was co-led by Bessemer Venture Partners and DN Capital to support European expansion.

"As a former CFO, I’ve seen finance teams drowning in billing queries and tirelessly chasing invoices with reminders that customers ignore. AI agents have already transformed customer support by automating high-volume, conversational work. That same shift is now coming to accounts receivable, where agents can handle billing conversations end to end and help businesses get paid on time."
— Rasmus Areskoug, Co-founder and CEO
Series C
$50.0M

The oversubscribed round was led by Lakestar with participation from Perpetual Growth, CF Private Equity, Bessemer Venture Partners, and 83North.

"After spending two years perfecting our SaaS and cloud spend optimisation, achieving product-market fit and taking market share from established players, we’ve brought all of our data and insights directly into the workflow experience. All employees can now initiate any purchase, quickly, transparently and at the best price, while procurement can fully customise the workflows to their needs and embed granular approvals."
— Roy Tuvey, Founder and CEO
Series B
£22.4M

The investment round was led by Zinal Growth with participation from Index Ventures, Bessemer Venture Partners, and Tony Fadell.

"We’ve been deeply impressed by the execution and vision of Bogdan and the Apron team. They have created a delightful product for both SMBs and accountants, and we are excited to continue supporting them on their journey."
— Guillaume Pousaz, Chairman
