Gumloop, the AI automation and agent platform, has raised $50 million in a Series B round. The funding will drive the company's push to make AI-native workflows accessible to every employee, not just engineers. Benchmark led the round, with participation from Nexus VP, First Round Capital, Y Combinator, Box Group, The Cannon Project, and Shopify Ventures.
The raise comes as Gumloop has established itself as the preferred internal AI platform for employees at a range of high-growth technology companies, including Shopify, Ramp, Gusto, Samsara, Instacart, and Opendoor.
Enterprise software has long promised to simplify work. In practice, automation tools have been built for technical teams, leaving most employees dependent on engineering backlogs to get anything done. Gumloop is targeting that gap directly.
The company operates in a market where AI-powered workflow automation is growing quickly, driven by improvements in large language models and rising demand from companies trying to reduce manual overhead. Its differentiation lies in combining powerful capabilities with a user experience that non-technical employees can navigate on their own.
"When we asked enterprises why Gumloop has emerged as the primary AI platform for their employees, they consistently pointed to the product's balance between powerful capabilities and ease of use, as well as the team's customer obsession and dedication to service," said Ev Randle of Benchmark. "The incredible adoption and expansion we're seeing within enterprises firsthand is a testament to the depth of this team's commitment to their users and customers."
Gumloop says the capital will be used to accelerate product development and grow its team across the board. The company is hiring widely, with a focus on maintaining the same standard it describes internally, where every team member operates at a high individual level of ownership.
The roadmap has shifted into a higher gear. The company points to rapid improvements in foundation models over the past six months as a key driver. Having already spent two years building authentication infrastructure, enterprise observability, and security features, Gumloop says the underlying models are now capable enough to bring it all together.
Gumloop was founded with a clear mission: free employees from repetitive tasks so they can focus on work that requires human judgment. The company has evolved well beyond its early identity as a drag-and-drop workflow builder into a broader AI platform with three distinct components.
Gumloop Agents allows anyone at a company, from an intern to a CEO, to build and deploy AI agents in minutes. These connect to hundreds of apps and run natively across Slack, Teams, and email. The core Gumloop platform gives teams a shared environment to build, collaborate on, and orchestrate agents across the business.
The third component is Gumstack, built specifically for security teams. It monitors and controls data usage across an organization's agents, logging all tool calls from platforms including Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, and custom internal agents. The result is full auditability and compliance visibility for security teams.
Since launch, Gumloop has taken an unusually hands-on approach to product development. The team has flown to customer offices, joined thousands of calls, run hundreds of workshops, shipped same-day feature requests, and answered over 8,000 questions in dedicated Slack channels.
That level of proximity to users has shaped every product decision. It is also, by the company's own account, a core reason for its recent growth within enterprise accounts.
Gumloop was backed previously by investors including First Round Capital, Y Combinator, and Box Group. Benchmark partner Ev Randle led the Series B. Additional participants include Nexus VP, The Cannon Project, and Shopify Ventures.
