Enterprise AI startup Ema raises $77M in Series B round led by Creaegis

Enterprise AI startup Ema, founded by former Google and Coinbase executive Surojit Chatterjee, has secured $77 million in Series B funding led by Creaegis. This investment quadruples the company's valuation, according to the startup. Ema plans to use the funds to expand its go-to-market operations and enter new geographic markets, including Asia-Pacific and Europe, Middle East, and Africa.

The company, headquartered in California with an office in Bengaluru, aims to help enterprises achieve measurable outcomes with AI rather than just relying on software.

Ema's platform is designed to automate workflows across various business functions such as HR, finance, and HR, enabling businesses to deploy and expand AI functionalities without a heavy services-based implementation model. The startup has moved beyond the pilot and proof-of-concept stage, delivering AI agentic solutions to enterprises.

Notable clients include Wipro, Hitachi, and NTT Data. For example, at Wipro, Ema powers an employee assistant that supports over 2.4 lakh associates across 65 countries, automating over 100 workflows and handling around 2.9 million employee queries annually. This has led to response times dropping from days to seconds and employee satisfaction increasing by 20%.

Creaegis Managing Partner and CIO Prakash Parthasarathy commented on the funding round, stating that Ema's platform is already supporting millions of employee interactions at some of the world's largest organizations, delivering measurable outcomes with the necessary governance. The company has built a scalable product platform with exceptional economics, focusing on a model that doesn't rely heavily on bespoke implementations.
