This round brings Manychat’s total funding to $163.3 million, powering global expansion, R&D, and advanced AI-agent innovation

Manychat, a global leader in conversational AI and automation across social and messaging platforms, announced a $140 million growth capital raise led by Summit Partners. This brings Manychat’s total funding to $163.3 million since its founding in 2015, including its first institutional investment of $18 million in 2019 by Bessemer Venture Partners.

Social platforms are the new arena of global commerce, with socially driven commerce projected to surpass $100 billion in the U.S. alone by 2026. Manychat sits at the center of this shift, helping creators and businesses leverage AI and automation to forge stronger and more impactful relationships with their audiences.
