Announcing $7M Seed Funding to Expand Our Business Messaging Platform with AI

More technology means more options.

At one time, the only method for a customer to be in touch with a business was by literally walking into the storefront or office. Eventually, people were able to have an operator use a switchboard to connect them. Next came direct phone calls, sending an email, visiting a website, reaching out on social media - it’s expanded to chat apps and messaging platforms.

While all these modes of communication are fascinating and necessary, they have caused customer communication to become lost, which ultimately leads to missed revenue, delayed responses, and frustrated customers.

Clerk Chat offers a solution. Our AI-powered conversational messaging platform brings all your communication channels together, allowing your teams to connect with customers seamlessly and in real-time.

And we’re just getting started.

The future of business communication is here.
