Viktor raises $75 million Series A led by Accel, the largest ever for a Polish-founded company, as its AI coworker operates inside Slack and connects to over 3,000 tools
It reached $15 million annualized recurring revenue in ten weeks.
#321Robert Scoble@SCOBLEIZERI've been using @viktor__com as an employee this morning.
It is now watching a video, coming up with titles and such, before uploading. This should really solve a big problem for me and get my YouTube channel going again. And it does a lot more, which explains why it got funded.
Do you have an AI employee? If you do, how do you compare all these things?
Thanks Viktor for sponsoring my newsletter and other efforts here and making my team more efficient.
Fryd Wiatrowski@frydwiaToday, we’re announcing Viktor’s $75M Series A, led by @Accel . @viktor__com was supposed to be a small experiment. It became the AI coworker 10x'ing real businesses. $15M in annualized revenue run rate. In 10 weeks. – Small companies saving millions of dollars – Sourcing hundreds of thousands in new revenue in their first 30 days – Whole teams getting half their week back – Companies running 40% leaner without cutting output Viktor is not another AI tool. It’s the first true AI employee. The vision that has been with us since 2023 when we started the company has finally been shipped. Back then, it was just the two of us, with a very small but dedicated team, iterating for years. Failing multiple times. Showing products that users didn't even want to test! But we never gave up. Our decisions were often wrong. Certainly more often than not! We kept trying. Now we’ve shipped something people love. Worth every sleepless night. Every sacrifice. The best employees don’t need to be told what to do. Neither does Viktor. Grateful to @Accel, our team, our earliest users, and everyone who believed this category could be bigger than chat.
#1496Chubby♨️@KIMMONISMUSA $75M Series A led by Accel - the largest ever raised by a Polish-founded company. But the angel list tells the real story: Stewart Butterfield and Cal Henderson wrote checks into an AI agent that lives inside the product they built. When the Slack co-founders back the AI coworker inside Slack, that's not hype capital, it shows trust.
Viktor runs autonomously on a schedule, connects to 3,000+ tools, and delivers finished work products instead of chat replies. The team at Zeta Labs has been building since 2023, 12,000+ teams already use it.

#1802Santiago@SVPINO$75M invested in another AI Employee.
It seems like the whole world is trying as hard as possible to replace people with AI.
Every time a new startup shows up with an AI Employee, VCs be like:
