Gumloop, which developed a platform that helps non-technical users create AI agents, has raised $50 million in funding, SiliconANGLE reported on March 13.
The Series B round was led by Benchmark, with participation from Shopify Ventures and Y Combinator. The investment brings Gumloop's total funding to $70 million.
Gumloop’s platform lets users create agents by selecting an AI model with drag-and-drop tools and entering tasks in natural language. It also provides a connector library that can link to hundreds of external applications. The platform can extend agent capabilities through plugins called “skills”. For example, a customer support agent can add a skill to classify ticket severity, or a data visualisation agent can link to an SQL query library.
It also offers a visual editor that connects multiple agents into a single automated workflow. For example, a sales team can combine agents that collect, organise and visualise prospective customer data to build an automated pipeline. A Chrome extension developed by Gumloop allows users to upload webpage data into an automated workflow or set specific web tasks to repeat periodically.
Max Brodeur-Urbis (맥스 브로더-어바스), Gumloop’s co-founder and CEO, said, “We were not in a hurry to raise funds, but rapid LLM advances are accelerating our roadmap.” He added, “Over the past two years, we have been developing an authentication layer, enterprise visibility and security features, and models have now advanced enough to connect all of this.”
