Seed
€12.0M

Dawn Capital led the seed investment, which included participation from Cherry Ventures, Mosaic Ventures, and prominent industry angels.

"The audit profession is about to undergo one of the biggest shifts in its history. AI will transform how audits are executed, but it will also raise the bar for quality, consistency, and professional oversight,"
— Valentin Neumann, CEO
Pre-Seed
$1.1M

Playfair led the pre-seed round for the London-based conversational commerce startup, with participation from several prominent tech angels.

"WhatsApp is about to become the default commerce channel for businesses. OpenAI wants those conversations to happen in ChatGPT and Google wants them in Search, but customers already spend their time on WhatsApp. We built Wassist so brands can own those conversations themselves,"
— Josh Warwick, Founder and CEO
Series B
£25.9M

The Series B round was led by Dawn Capital with participation from Meritech Capital.

"Introducing customers to Business Premium, and providing them with the most valuable licensing, is only the first step. The other is to make sure those licenses stay configured and up to date. Trying to do that across 300 customers is impossible without inforcer"
— Gary Melvin
Series A
£9.0M

Dawn Capital led the Series A round to support team expansion and platform development.

"Enterprises creating specific business-critical AI would gladly self-host, if “expertise” and “cost” didn’t sound like double trouble. Doubleword flips the script, making self-hosting effortless and reshaping the market for enterprise customers."
— Florian Douetteau
Series B
$175M

The financing values the decision intelligence provider at $2.6bn and was led by Teachers Venture Growth.

"Businesses today need to build trusted data foundations to enable AI-enhanced decision making, to drive real world impact. Quantexa is revolutionising how they do this. At TVG, we invest in high-growth, game-changing companies, led by visionary leaders, making a global difference. Quantexa’s impressive track record, expanding customer base, and bold approach to data and AI innovation make it a natural fit for our portfolio. We’re excited to support Vishal, and his world-class team scale the company internationally, as they continue helping industry-leading organisations embrace AI-driven decision-making with confidence."
