New York: AI startup EliseAI said on Tuesday it had raised $350 million in a funding round that valued the company at $4 billion.
The round was led by Andreessen Horowitz and Bessemer Venture Partners, with participation from Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan, Sapphire Ventures and Navitas Capital, Reuters reported.
EliseAI develops AI tools that automate administrative workflows for housing and healthcare systems — two sectors where paperwork and back-office processes remain a heavy cost burden. The company said it will use the fresh capital to expand its engineering, deployment and sales teams, and to establish San Francisco as a second engineering hub alongside its New York headquarters.
The raise makes EliseAI one of the highest-valued AI startups focused on applied automation for real-world services rather than general-purpose models. Its bet is that property managers, housing operators and healthcare providers will increasingly hand routine administrative work — from tenant communications to scheduling and billing support — to AI systems, freeing staff for higher-value tasks.
The participation of a major pension fund alongside top-tier venture firms signals growing institutional appetite for AI companies with clear enterprise revenue models, even as the broader AI funding market concentrates around a handful of mega-rounds.
