Poetic Raises $50M Series A
Poetic, based in San Francisco, is a software company building a new class of enterprise automation tools that combine artificial intelligence learning with deterministic code execution. The company recently announced it has raised $50 million in a Series A funding round, bringing its valuation to $500 million.
The funding round was led by Kleiner Perkins, with participation from Founders Fund, First Harmonic, and OpenAI.
Poetic plans to use the new capital to scale its forward-deployed team, expand into additional complex industries, and bring its automation platform to more large-scale enterprises.
Founded by Markie Wagner, Poetic (formerly known as Forge) provides a platform that allows operators to define complex business workflows in natural language, which are then encoded into deterministic execution. The software is designed to automate high-stakes processes in sectors such as healthcare, banking, and insurance with high accuracy.
