Rox, a startup working on developing artificial intelligence-powered agents for salespeople, has launched with $50 million in funding from investors including Sequoia Capital and General Catalyst, the company plans to announce Tuesday.
The funding total includes a seed round led by Sequoia with participation from GV and a Series A led by General Catalyst. The company declined to share its valuation.
Rox CEO and co-founder Ishan Mukherjee discusses the company’s latest round of funding for its AI-powered agents. He speaks with Caroline Hyde on “Bloomberg Technology.”
While Rox is still small, with about 15 employees, it is part of a wave of startups aiming to build AI services for sales and customer service teams. Its focus on agents or AI tools that can perform real-world tasks with minimal human supervision reflects Silicon Valley’s intense interest in using artificial intelligence to make companies more productive.
