Gmelius, founded in 2016, announced the closing of a 7-figure seed round. Among the investors are Fongit Seed Invest, ACE Investment Partners, Swiss ICT Investor Club (SICTIC) as well as several angel investors.
Today’s companies use an increasing number of SaaS services to organize their workflows and processes. These complex spiders of tools create widening issues as data becomes more and more dispersed and communication fragmented.
Geneva-based startup, Gmelius, offers a browser extension and mobile application, which integrate into any existing Gmail or G Suite inbox and transform them into a complete workspace. Teams can manage projects together, answer customer queries, and automate their outreach. The company currently has more than 10,000 paid customers including teams at Spotify and Uber.
Now, Gmelius has announced the closing of a 7-figure seed round. Investors are Fongit Seed Invest, ACE Investment Partners, Swiss ICT Investor Club (SICTIC) and several angel investors. Gmelius plans to use the new funding to expand its marketing and sales efforts, especially in the US where two-thirds of their current customers are based. The startup also intends to grow the team from 13 to 25 employees by the end of the year.
