Round: Seed + Series A

Lead Investor: Coatue, Canaan Partners

Sumble is a sales intelligence platform that maps whatโ€™s happening inside a company using public data.

Its crawlers scan job boards, company blogs, regulatory filings, social channels, to synthesize the signals into a knowledge graph for LLMs. Reps can see which tools are being used in which departments, who owns specific initiatives, whatโ€™s being procured, and when buying windows are likely to open. The platform delivers this context through a web app and API, with optional CRM and workflow integrations.
