Our take
Luminai, formerly known as Digital Brain, was founded in 2020 by two graduates of the Y Combinator scheme. The company helps sales reps and customer service agents automate their workflows to ultimately save time on internal processes.
Though the founders may be fresh faces in the tech industry, Luminai has already received Series A funding and has clients including Carta, Oura, and Strava.
The funding will be used to expand the go-to-market team and product capabilities in order to attract customers of all company sizes. This will be crucial in maintaining momentum and setting itself apart in the market.
