Vieu – a generative AI company that helps companies succeed at strategic customer wins beyond early unpaid pilots – recently announced that it has raised $2 million in funding. The funding round saw participation from more than 20 marquee angel investors, founders/CEOs, and seasoned GTM executives.
Vieu launched in 2022 by serial tech entrepreneurs and former Microsoft executives Samir Manjure and Simon Skaria with the goal of helping businesses chart their path to enterprise sales success.
The enterprise B2B Sales industry is worth $81 billion, and it is projected to grow double-digit CAGR through 2030. And 93% of the CEOs consider Sales Transformation one of their top 5 strategic priorities and believe AI would completely upend traditional spray and pray sales methodologies. Vieu is projected to capitalize on this disruption using AI to identify the strategic accounts with the highest propensity, equip the sales team with an auto-generated Account Plan, and deliver an on-the-rail execution plan for each account with company-level observability.
Multiple enterprise sales teams worldwide are using Vieu and it is now available to all companies globally with this launch. Seclore has been an early adopter of Vieu. Seclore pioneered the concept of Data-Centric Security for the Enterprise and is relied on by Fortune 100 companies like Amex, Applied materials, GM, Ford etc.
Like its technology and product, Vieu has an innovative pricing model focused on true business outcomes. And with the global launch today, Vieu is now offering a 100% money-backed guarantee which makes the decision of onboarding them easy especially in today’s tough macro environment where cost optimization is happening everywhere.
