We’ve raised a $180M Series C to give every AI agent a voice and make speech the new standard for interacting with technology. Over the past year, we’ve built the foundations and expanded our tools with voice generation, Conversational AI, Voice Design, AI Dubbing, Sound Effects, and more. In 2025, we’re focused on making audio AI more controllable, more collaborative, and available across more devices and languages. This next step wouldn’t be possible without our incredible backers Andreessen Horowitz and ICONIQ Growth. We are honored by the continued trust and support from those doubling down on us: Sequoia Capital, Salesforce Ventures, Smash Capital, SV Angel, Nat Friedman, Daniel Gross, BroadLight Capital. At the same time, we’re proud to welcome new partners: New Enterprise Associates (NEA), WiL (World Innovation Lab), Valor Capital Group, Endeavor, and Lunate - and thrilled to build together with new strategic investors: Deutsche Telekom, LG Technology Ventures, HubSpot Ventures, NTT DOCOMO, and RingCentral. We’re grateful to our new and existing investors for their support, and to the creators, developers, and businesses building with us every day. To everyone who has given feedback, shared ideas, and worked alongside us - you’ve helped shape what ElevenLabs is today. Speech is the most natural way we communicate. Join us in making it the default way we interact with technology. If you’re excited about working on this with us, we’re hiring: elevenlabs.io/careers. Read more: https://lnkd.in/dqj3Bgsg

Congratulations to Doktor Gurson, Jeff Chang, and the whole Rad AI team on their Series C ??!
When Jeff and I founded Rad AI, we envisioned a world where radiologists and other healthcare providers could focus more on what matters most: delivering exceptional patient care without compromising their own wellbeing in the process. Today, I’m excited to announce we’ve taken another pivotal step on that journey by closing our $60 million Series C, led by Transformation Capital with participation from Khosla Ventures and our other existing investors. This brings our total funding to $140 million, further solidifying our leadership in healthcare generative AI. I’m incredibly excited to partner with Vinay Shah, Todd Cozzens, Michael Dixon, Jared Kesselheim, Nick Briguglio, and the entire Transformation Capital team. More details about our Series C here: https://lnkd.in/gDFEm84q ARTIS Ventures, WiL (World Innovation Lab), Gradient, Kickstart, OCV, Santa Barbara Venture Partners #SeriesC #RadAI #HealthcareInnovation #GenerativeAI #Radiology #AIinHealthcare #Leadership #Teamwork

As we all know -- growth at “all costs” mantra is not a recipe to build a long lasting (100 year+) company with a strong culture for innovation.?In today’s markets – investors are looking for high quality businesses, with clear path to profitability, and metrics that are all up and to the right while maintaining efficiency. No company is perfect - we are not either - however, one thing that I would say we do better than most, is we execute!?Execute on our goals that we set, deliver high quality products, and deeply listen to our customers so that those products resonate and create results. ??That’s why we grew 50% YoY for two years in a row (2023+2024) – only a few companies in the supply chain and logistics industry can say that – especially at our scale. As a result, I am proud to say that we successfully raised an oversubscribed $40m Series C round. The reason why this round is a special one is because we get to invest in building new software and hardware products for our customers, and most importantly because we brought in two high-caliber firms with great people: World Innovation Lab (WiL) with Andy and Clifford, and Sageview Capital with Dean and Caitlin. ?Their go-to-market and operational expertise are unmatched, and combined with our current investors we have a group that any founder would love to work with. The entire Tive team is super excited about the future ahead. All Tivers, thank you for everything you do for our customers - I still feel like its Day 1 at Tive - let’s continue to execute, the world needs us more than ever. Go Tive! #supplychain #logistics
