AppZen, a California-based company, raised $180 million in a Series D growth funding round. Riverwood Capital led this investment, aimed at scaling the company's autonomous finance software.
Founded in 2012, AppZen provides an agentic AI platform for finance teams that automates manual financial processes, including accounts payable, corporate card management, and travel and expense.
AppZen's underlying platform utilizes AI agents, powered by over 200 specialized ZenLM finance models. These models function as digital workers, acting on behalf of employees. Consequently, finance experts convert process knowledge into automated workflows without coding.
Accelerating Autonomous Finance Solutions
The company's AI models train specifically for finance and semantic understanding. They support customers across more than 40 languages and 60 countries. Enterprises deploy the platform for multi-entity and multi-currency operations, managing complex environments.
AppZen's agentic tools help finance teams reduce spend leakage and ensure regulatory compliance. For instance, the platform replaces over 50% of manual work while scaling operations without additional headcount. Competitors like UiPath and BlackLine also focus on process automation.
