Anagog — the pioneer of on-device artificial intelligence solutions — announced that it raised an initial $10 million Series-C round of funding. This round of funding was co-led by IN Venture (Israel’s corporate venture capital arm of Sumitomo Corporation, part of Sumitomo Corporation Global Venture Group) as well as existing investor and VC firm MizMaa and is joined by international automotive supplier Continental.

This funding will enable Anagog to bolster its global sales and delivery capabilities as well as leverage the funds to support the core R&D team, including several new product innovations that will be revealed in the coming months.

While the industry grapples with unclear changes, these additions will serve as the missing link needed for providing accurate views of real-time and real-world customer insight as they emerge out of the current crisis. And at the same time, this will offer richer contextual services that create a unique and enhanced user experience.

Anagog is known for reinventing real-world personalization. And as a global pioneer of edge-AI, Anagog utilizes its JedAI suite of products to enable mobile phones to understand users’ real-world behaviors (micro-segments) and real-time context (micro-moments). The company’s patented privacy-by-design approach allows the phone to pull hyper-personalized and contextualized offerings from the marketer’s cloud without disclosing the user’s personal data. So companies can craft the personal customer experiences for each individual customer and significantly increase engagement.

Anagog’s technology has over 25 million downloads globally and is integrated into more than 100 mobile apps.
