🇫🇮 Clevenio raises pre-seed round to automate list building and account research for B2B sales reps

Clevenio, a B2B SaaS company, has successfully raised a pre-seed round to develop a sales intelligence software that automates the entire process of list building and account research for sales reps. The funding round was led by Gorilla Capital, with significant participation from Sofokus Ventures.

Solving Key Bottlenecks for B2B Sales Teams

Clevenio’s new approach to B2B sales has already garnered significant attention in the Nordics, especially in Finland. With this funding, the company aims to make its key features available to larger markets.

“We have already seen locally that our approach to sales can more than double the results compared to traditional sales software tools. Our automated data and research products, combined with outreach functionalities, are already delivering great results in the Nordics. We are excited to start building these capabilities for larger markets as well,” says CEO Aleksi Halsas.

Future Plans and Growth Trajectory

After securing the pre-seed round Clevenio will now focus on building an internationally competitive solution, specifically designed to make B2B sales teams more efficient. The funding round enables Clevenio to significantly accelerate the development of their product for larger markets.
