Arch: $52 Million Series B Raised For Simplifying Private Market Investing

By Amit Chowdhry • Today at 3:31 PM

Arch has secured $52 million in a Series B round led by Oak HC/FT, with participation from Menlo Ventures, Craft Ventures, Quiet Capital, and other investors. This funding will support Arch’s plans to grow its team, enhance its technology, and deepen its focus on institutional investors, large private wealth groups, and established family offices that manage significant alternative assets.

Many investors still rely on outdated tools and manual processes to track their holdings. They sift through multiple portals, download disparate statements, and handle capital calls one by one, all of which creates unnecessary delays and leaves valuable time on the table.

Arch addresses these pain points with an operating system built specifically for private markets. At its core, the platform uses artificial intelligence to automatically gather data from limited-partner statements, K-1 tax forms, quarterly reports, and even fragmented email threads. All of that unstructured information is transformed into a single, secure dashboard where users can see their private investments at a glance.

One of Arch’s standout features is Arch Pay, which streamlines the capital-call process from start to finish. Instead of sending and reconciling separate wire instructions for each fund, investors can trigger payments through the platform, track due dates in real time, and receive confirmation once funds are received. This automation not only reduces errors but also accelerates the entire funding cycle, which can be crucial when markets shift rapidly.

Over the past fourteen months, Arch’s customer base has more than doubled. The platform now tracks over $250 billion in private assets, up from $100 billion, and is used by more than 450 allocators. Those clients include leading private banks, major accounting firms, and the wealth and institutional investment teams at some of the world’s largest organizations. More than half of existing users have recommended Arch to their peers.

With the Series B funds in hand, Arch plans to scale its sales and support teams and accelerate product innovation. The company will establish deeper integrations with custodians and fund administrators, enabling new documents and statements to appear instantly in the dashboard. At the same time, Arch will continue to refine its AI models, making data extractions more accurate and expanding analytics tools that help clients uncover insights hidden in their portfolios.

As demand for private market exposure continues to climb, Arch’s combination of AI-based data collection, automated capital-call workflows, and real-time reporting positions it to become the leading platform for managing alternative investments. By freeing investors from manual drudgery, Arch enables them to focus on strategic decision-making, optimize their cash management, and stay ahead in an ever-more complex asset landscape.

KEY QUOTES:

“Investors in private markets have long been underserved – dealing with fragmented data, clunky workflows and high fees. With this new capital and the support of our partners, we’re expanding our suite of CIO tools, developing new features within our client portal and enhancing reporting capabilities for LPs. We’re continuing to build the product the industry needs – streamlining analysis, centralizing reporting and eliminating manual back-office work tied to alternative investments.”

Ryan Eisenman, Co-Founder and CEO of Arch

“In our diligence calls, Arch clearly stood out. We have LPs that use lots of solutions, but Arch clients showed a clear enthusiasm for the product and team that was lacking across any peer solutions. That, paired with their rollout across one of the nation’s biggest banks, their traction in the institutional space, and the hundreds of family offices and RIAs that use the platform gave our team deep conviction in Arch — now and in the future.”
