Aurasell is the world’s first AI-native CRM.
We’ve raised $30M in Seed funding to launch the world’s first AI-native CRM — built from first principles to replace Salesforce, HubSpot, and the bloated CRM ecosystems holding teams back.
For 25 years, CRM has been stuck in the past. Legacy players have been bolting on stale features and bloated add-ons, while raising SaaS fees and now metering AI usage — leaving customers overcharged and underwhelmed.
Aurasell changes that. Our platform collapses 15+ point solutions into one unified, intelligent system that delivers:
Intelligent Automation: from Contact → Contract
Unified Data Model: eliminating fractured systems
Agentic Workflows: where humans and AI agents sell in seamless harmony
The result? A full-featured replacement for legacy CRM frameworks and their ecosystems. We free go-to-market teams from tool sprawl and empower them to focus on what actually matters: intelligent, human-to-human selling.
🚀 Backed by world-class investors: Next47, Menlo Ventures, and Unusual Ventures
📍 Founded in San Francisco Bay Area, built by a team from VMware, Nutanix, Google, Meraki, Twilio, LinkedIn, Salesforce, Clari, and Harness. This is the beginning of a new category in business software: AI-native GTM platforms.

Tractian provides asset intelligence solutions that combine hardware sensors and AI software to monitor machine health in real time, so industrial teams can catch failures before they happen, prioritize what matters, and act with confidence.
Our approach is built on physical AI: sensors deployed directly on critical assets, feeding AI models trained on data from the largest industrial database available. The result is asset intelligence that goes beyond alerts, telling you whats wrong, why, and what to do next before a failure becomes a breakdown.
Trusted by 1,500+ manufacturers across the Americas - including McKesson, Air Liquide, Verizon, Cummins, Ingredion, and Whirlpool - Tractian has returned $304M to customers through earlier failure detection and helped teams avoid 97,631 hours of downtime.
Tractian was named to the Forbes AI 50 and ranked #24 Fastest-Growing Company in North America on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500™.
