Israeli Startup June AI Uses Agents to Automate Software Implementation
Israeli startup June AI is aiming to automate the complex and costly process of implementing and customizing enterprise software for large organizations. Instead of relying heavily on human consultants and engineers, the company plans to use AI agents to perform a significant portion of this work. Large companies typically use a multitude of systems simultaneously, including Salesforce, ServiceNow, Workday, SAP, Oracle, Microsoft, Snowflake, and Databricks, alongside numerous internal applications. Integrating new technology or AI agents into these existing, often disparate systems is challenging due to data duplication, varying development timelines, inconsistent rules across departments, and accumulated technical debt requiring manual intervention.
June AI's founder, Efrat Rapoport, explained that the cost of implementing enterprise software can often far exceed the license fees themselves. The June AI platform first analyzes a company's existing systems to map out its actual business processes. It then identifies bottlenecks and determines where AI agents can be most effectively deployed. The system generates a step-by-step plan for necessary changes, such as eliminating redundant fields, connecting data sources, or modifying workflows. Following this, its AI agents execute these changes directly within the corporate infrastructure, while maintaining human oversight checkpoints.
June AI was founded in late 2025 by Efrat Rapoport, Idan Citiat, Barak Goldstein, and Ohad Hen. This team previously founded Bonobo AI, which was acquired by Salesforce in 2019. They then spent approximately five years at Salesforce working on enterprise AI products. From 2022 to 2024, Rapoport led Salesforce's Israeli research and development center, which employed around 700 people. June AI has successfully raised $20 million in pre-seed funding. The round was led by Time Ventures, the fund of Salesforce founder Marc Benioff, with participation from other notable investors including Michael Dell, VMware founder Diane Greene, Box CEO Aaron Levie, and CrowdStrike founder George Kurtz.
