Momentic

⚡ VC Funding Flash: AI Automation Across Finance, Security, & Manufacturing ⚡ 🏦 Model ML (AI FinTech Workflow) raised a massive $75M Series A (led by Financial Technology Partners / FT Partners, with participation from Y Combinator and QED) to accelerate the global expansion of its AI workflow automation platform. This large raise underscores investor confidence in AI agents that automatically generate client-ready financial documents (pitch decks, memos, etc.) from trusted data sources, transforming investment banking workflows. 🛡️ Opti (AI Identity Security) secured a $20M Seed Round (co-led by YL Ventures and Hetz Ventures) to develop its AI-native Identity and Access Management (IAM) platform. The funding will fuel global growth for the platform, which uses an identity graph and LLMs to replace static IAM with real-time, continuous identity risk detection and least-privilege access orchestration. 🏭 Cerrion (AI Manufacturing Platform) closed an $18M Series A (led by Creandum) to scale its AI video agent platform for the manufacturing industry. The platform uses computer vision to detect and resolve production line issues in real-time for major global manufacturers like Unilever and Schott Zwiesel, helping to cut costly downtime and scrap by up to 50%. ⚙️ Momentic (AI Software Testing) raised a $15M Series A (led by Standard Capital, with Dropbox Ventures participating) to advance its platform for automating software testing and verification. The funding will expand its engineering team and product coverage, enabling customers like Notion and Xero to describe complex user flows in plain English, with the AI then automatically generating and executing the end-to-end tests. ☁️ Blast Security (Cloud-Native Cybersecurity) emerged from stealth with a $10M Seed Round (co-led by 10D and MizMaa Ventures). Founded by Israeli cyber veterans, the company is introducing a Preemptive Cloud Defense Platform that replaces reactive alert-chasing with continuous, enforced prevention, using preventive guardrails to secure cloud environments by design.

Really enjoyed this conversation that Jeff An and I had with Dalton Caldwell. We talked about the early days of Momentic (back when it was called Screenwriter at buildspace), the future of engineering, and our vision for the company. Also just realized I’m apparently permanently hunched... Link in comments 👇🏼

Momentic, an AI-driven software testing startup, raised $15 million in a Series A round led by Standard Capital with participation from Dropbox Ventures, building on its $3.7 million seed round. Co-founders Wei-Wei W. and Jeff An aim to simplify and scale software testing by letting users describe critical flows in plain English, with AI automating verification; Momentic already serves 2,600 users including Notion, Xero, Bilt, Webflow, and Retool, and plans to expand mobile support and test-case management with the new funding.

When I joined Momentic a little over a year ago, it was just three desks pushed together in the corner of another startup's office. We were scrambling to close our first six-figure deal. Now, we're announcing our Series A, have moved into our own office, and six-figure deals are the norm. We've also hired seven other brilliant people to build with us. It's incredible to see the progress we've made in just 12 months. Check out our Series A announcement: https://lnkd.in/gS9XRKcT We're still hiring across several engineering and go-to-market roles: https://lnkd.in/gjkZFzUB.

massive congrats to Wei-Wei W., Jeff An and the Momentic team on their series a with Standard Capital! these guys are incredibly customer-centric and hard working, and that's why it's no wonder that they work with the best product companies in tech like notion and retool. ai-powered qa is a really cool category in areas where gen ai has product-market fit, like code gen and voice (e.g., Hamming AI), where humans interact directly with ai and ai output in a high stakes environment. proud to be an early customer and a seed investor in the company. thanks to Sara Du for bringing us together 😀 can't wait to see what they accomplish over the next 10 years.
