Town, a two-year-old, San Francisco-based startup developing AI assistants, nabbed a unicorn valuation on Monday, announcing a $108 million Series B funding round co-led by Forerunner Ventures and Menlo Ventures. The company launched publicly just four months ago and said it reached millions of dollars in annual recurring revenue in a matter of weeks. It has raised at least $160 million to date, having previously announced a $55 million Series A round in June.
Town 是一家位于旧金山的两年制初创公司,致力于开发 AI 助手。该公司周一宣布获得 1.08 亿美元的 B 轮融资,由 Forerunner Ventures 和 Menlo Ventures 共同领投,并借此获得了独角兽估值。该公司在四个月前才正式公开亮相,并表示在短短几周内就实现了数百万美元的年度经常性收入。截至目前,该公司已筹集至少 1.6 亿美元资金,此前曾在 6 月宣布获得 5500 万美元的 A 轮融资。
Town — founded by former Plaid CTO Jean-Denis Greze — is one of many AI assistants flooding the market right now. Town targets businesses, giving each employee an AI assistant called a Townie that helps with tasks by connecting to tools such as emails and calendars, as well as other core work systems. Employees’ Townies can talk to each other and share approved information; they can also now work with customers and others outside the company.
Town 由前 Plaid 首席技术官 Jean-Denis Greze 创立,是目前充斥市场的众多 AI 助手之一。Town 的目标客户是企业,它为每位员工提供一个名为“Townie”的 AI 助手,通过连接电子邮件、日历以及其他核心工作系统来协助处理任务。员工的 Townie 之间可以相互交流并共享经批准的信息;它们现在还可以与公司外部的客户及其他人进行协作。
Alongside the funding, Town announced a shared workflow that automatically updates employees’ Townies with new business information rather than requiring each worker to update their own Townie. Andreessen Horowitz, Serena Ventures, and First Round Capital also participated in the round. We’ve reached out to the company for comment.
