Israeli startup Zenzap has announced a cumulative funding round of $44 million, aimed at integrating AI agents into workplace chat applications to automate tasks. The funding was led by Bessemer Venture Partners and Lightspeed Venture Partners, with participation from The Garage. Zenzap's platform embeds AI agents within organizational chat interfaces, allowing them to access information from conversations and perform actions within business systems. This aims to reduce manual work, such as copying customer details or checking payment status, by enabling AI to handle these tasks directly from chat.
The company, founded in 2022 by CEO Guy Weiss, CTO Yonatan Bein, and COO Noam Neuman, employs 45 people across Israel, the US, and Europe, with offices in Tel Aviv's Sarona. Zenzap's technology allows AI agents to be created in under 90 seconds without technical expertise. Clients have reportedly created over 40,000 automated processes, including request routing, invoice tracking, CRM updates, and marketing content generation.
Zenzap targets businesses where mobile devices are central to operations, such as logistics, clinics, and elder care facilities, aiming to streamline communication and task management. The platform also offers administrative control, data security, and compliance with standards like SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and GDPR. The company serves thousands of clients, from SMBs to international corporations, though specific revenue or valuation figures were not disclosed.
CEO Guy Weiss stated the platform was built for seamless collaboration between employees and AI agents within a shared organizational context. Adam Fisher of Bessemer highlighted the concept of deploying specialized AI agents under supervision, while Tal Morgenstern of Lightspeed noted the focus on non-technical departments and businesses relying on chat apps like WhatsApp.
