Ema, an AI agent platform automating corporate processes in HR, IT, and finance, secured $77 million in Series B funding led by Creaegis. The round brings the startup's total funding to $140 million.

Ema deploys teams of AI agents to handle routine corporate workflows across multiple business functions. The platform targets labor-intensive processes in human resources, information technology, and finance operations. The Series B funding will support Ema's expansion as enterprises increasingly adopt AI agents for back-office automation. The startup competes in a growing market where companies seek to reduce manual work and operational costs. Creaegis led the round, signaling investor confidence in Ema's approach to enterprise automation. Previous funding rounds established the startup's technology foundation before this significant growth capital injection. AI agent platforms have attracted substantial venture investment as organizations look to deploy autonomous systems for repetitive tasks. Ema's focus on specific business functions differentiates it in a crowded automation market.
