Capsa AI Raises £1.7M Seed Round to Transform Private Equity with AI

Eight months after founding, Capsa AI has successfully closed a £1.7 million seed round led by Outward VC. In that short time, we've built a revenue-generating platform serving top private equity funds managing over $30 billion across the US, UK, and Germany.
Capsa AI has developed an AI operating system that allows private equity investors to automate manual, time-consuming due diligence tasks like creating company profiles, extracting financial data, and reviewing contracts. Tasks that typically consume up to 25% of their time.
By leveraging Capsa AI's technology, PE investors can shift their focus to higher-value, strategic activities, enhancing their ability to evaluate more potential deals and dedicate more time to creating value. In the months ahead, Capsa AI will also help private equity firms tap into their historical deal data to drive better investment decisions.
Early Traction and Customer Impact
Since launching, we've co-developed bespoke PE features with multiple leading private equity funds. Early customers have seen a 20% reduction in due diligence time and a 90% satisfaction score, highlighting Capsa AI's deep understanding of PE-specific workflows and needs as a key advantage.
This funding round was led by Outward VC, a leading UK fintech investor, with participation from Cornerstone VC and Antler. We're also proud to have support from high-profile angels like Chris Adelsbach, one of Europe's top fintech investors, alongside senior professionals from leading private equity firms and tech unicorns.
This funding round marks a major milestone in our mission to transform private equity with AI-powered solutions, and we're deeply grateful for the support of our customers, employees, and investors. Looking forward to what's to come in 2025.
