Automaise's AI Agents secure €5 million investment to accelerate growth

This investment will enable Automaise to expand into new markets across Europe and the United States while strengthening all its teams with new talent.

Automaise’s mission to enhance business productivity through Artificial Intelligence has received a significant boost with a €5 million Series A funding round. With this investment, Automaise will expand its presence and continue evolving its enterprise-ready Agentic AI platform, which is revolutionizing how businesses integrate AI into their customer experience operations quickly and seamlessly.

For Automaise CEO Ernesto Pedrosa, this investment round represents “a vote of confidence in our vision and a catalyst for our expansion.” He adds, “With this investment, we will accelerate innovation, expand globally, and bring our AI solutions to more businesses, optimizing customer service and driving productivity. Companies that do not adopt AI now will fall behind, and our solutions enable them to do so quickly, efficiently, and without technical complexity.”

The funding round was led by Oxy Capital, with participation from BrightPixel, Armilar, and HCapital—existing investors who chose to reinforce their commitment to Automaise’s growth. “Automaise stands out by combining cutting-edge technology with high-value, practical solutions for businesses. We recognize a skilled and ambitious team with the ability to drive international expansion in a rapidly growing sector,” says Tiago Proença, Private Equity Associate at Oxy Capital.

One of the key objectives of this investment is to fuel the company’s expansion, entering new markets in Europe and the United States. Automaise will hire 30 new employees by the end of 2025, strengthening all its teams. Additionally, the company will continue enhancing its AI platform, allowing any business to implement next-generation AI Agents without technical complexity—making automation more accessible and highly efficient.

Since its founding in 2017 by Ernesto Pedrosa and Carlos Oliveira, Automaise has experienced steady growth, attracting key clients in retail, banking, insurance, and telecommunications. Its client portfolio includes major companies such as Intelcia, Altice, Sonae MC, Novobanco, Via Verde and Talgo. In a world where talent shortages and efficiency demands are critical, Automaise’s AI solutions have already helped businesses increase productivity by up to 60%.

“In today’s business landscape, efficiency, productivity, and cost reduction are competitive advantages. AI is a key driver of operational efficiency, enabling organizations to do more, better, and faster. Companies that fail to recognize this will lose agility and relevance,” says Ernesto Pedrosa. He adds, “At Automaise, we don’t believe in AI replacing people—we believe in AI empowering them. We are building a future where businesses are more agile, innovative, and ready for the challenges of today and tomorrow.”
