Funds for Video Conversation Analyst Natter

In New York, AI-native conversation intelligence platform Natter has raised $23 million, with which to scale its offer globally. This includes expanding its engineering, data and product teams as well as further developing platform capabilities.

Natter runs thousands of simultaneous one-to-one video conversations with employees, members and customers, promising to capture real voices at scale; then generates and synthesizes real-time, contextual data in hours for use by enterprise sales, strategy, change management and HR leaders. The company says its technology helps capture insight 'at a depth and speed previously unachievable through traditional methods such as surveys, focus groups and research interviews.' Companies like Accenture, ServiceNow, Mondelez, PwC and Philip Morris International are already making extensive use, according to the firm.

'We started Natter with a simple but radical belief: that every person inside an enterprise has something important to say, and that leaders deserve to hear it - accurately, instantly, and at scale,' says CEO and co-founder Charlie Woodward (pictured). The firm's relocation of its HQ to New York reflect its customer base - 80% of current revenue comes from the US.

Funding was led by Renegade Partners, with participation from Kindred Capital, Costanoa Ventures, Rackhouse Ventures, Village Global and Asymmetric Capital Partners - plus angel investors.
