"We think of it like hiring a Harvard-grad Chief of Staff with a perfect memory. Over time, it becomes a trusted partner who understands your customers, owns the follow-through, and helps you win more business."
"Beside isn't just optimizing communications between businesses and customers, it's completely rethinking how work gets done."
"Beside plans to use the funding for product development, hiring, and eventually expanding into European markets."
Beside raised $32 million to scale an AI receptionist that handles millions of calls per month. The AI answers calls, remembers customer details, books appointments, and manages follow-ups through an app linked to existing phone numbers. The company closed a $20 million Series A led by EQT Ventures after prior Seed and SAFE rounds, and plans to invest in product development, hiring, and European expansion. After 18 months in stealth as M1, Beside reached $4 million in annual recurring revenue with more than 20,000 paying customers, many of whom use the app frequently. The founding team has consumer technology backgrounds and the company targets consumers and small businesses rather than large enterprises.
