Momentum, the customer intelligence platform that enables enterprise listening and automation, announced that it has raised $13 million in Series A funding led by FirstMark Capital with participation from Stage 2 Capital. This brings Momentum’s total funding to $18 million. The existing Momentum investors, including Basis Set Ventures and Leadout Capital, also participated in the round. Amish Jani, FirstMark founder and partner, joins the board along with Stage 2 general partner Mandy Cole.
This investment follows a year of stellar growth for the company. Last year, Momentum increased annual recurring revenue (ARR) by more than 400%, adding companies like Ramp, 1Password, Alation, and Demandbase to its already impressive customer base, which also includes Zscaler and Postman.
Momentum enables companies to automatically capture customer intelligence via call recordings, emails, and Slack and turn that data into actionable insights to predict and prevent customer churn, alert revenue leaders of forecast risk, streamline processes and automate routine tasks. And Momentum’s AI-powered platform uncovers blind spots and optimizes operations, so customer-facing teams can move faster and wiser.
Momentum accomplishes this without being yet another tool for revenue teams to learn. And it fully integrates into the stack they’re already using by extracting raw data from applications like Gong, Clari, Zoom, Google Meet, etc., processing it using AI, storing that structured data in Salesforce, and presenting it in Slack at the right time. This makes it seamless for Revenue Operations to implement and roll out.
Momentum released several new features in recent months, including Custom Summaries, a first-to-market feature. And sales and customer success teams can now refine their call summaries and notes with their own prompts, ensuring every detail aligns with what matters most to their business.
Since the start of the year, the Momentum team has launched Contact Automation, Automatic Churn Detection, and native integrations with Salesoft and Chorus by ZoomInfo. With this latest round of funding, Momentum plans to accelerate product development to further innovate for enterprise revenue teams and drive additional business expansion.
