Kleio Raises €3M to Transform Sales and Marketing with Conversational AI‍

We're thrilled to announce that Kleio has secured €3M in seed funding to drive strong customer adoption, with early successes among clients like Showroomprivé, Havas Voyages, and Effy. This investment will accelerate our mission to redefine how enterprises leverage Conversational AI to enhance customer engagement, particularly in the sales of complex products that typically require a high-touch approach.

The round was led by Serena and Daphni, with support from seasoned Enterprise software leaders including Houman Behzadi (Executive VP @C3 AI), Julien Bellanger (ex-CEO @ Prevoty), Raphael Simon (ex-CTO @ Shine.fr), and Dave Kellogg (ex-CEO of HostAnalytics & ex-SVP at Salesforce).

Founded in early 2024 by AI veterans Philippe Wellens, Adrien Mathieu, and Louis Poirier, Kleio’s leadership team brings over 30 years of AI experience across products, sales, and technology, and held pivotal roles at C3 AI in Europe and in the US.

A Next-Generation Conversational AI for Complex Sales Journeys

We focus on transforming complex sales journeys with AI-powered features like natural language interactions, deep understanding of the customers’ intents, lead qualification and product recommendation, sales lead prioritization, sales workflow automation and intelligent routing to streamline complex purchasing and customer service processes.

Unlike companies adapting legacy chat systems to Generative AI, or providing one-size-fits-all solutions, Kleio’s technology is purpose-built for industries with intricate product offerings that demand a personal touch.

Key sectors include real estate, energy, cosmetics, automotive, financial services, and travel. With seamless integration, scalability, and personalized solutions at its core, we help enterprises boost sales conversions and drive revenue growth.

A Powerful System to Bridge the Gap in the Challenging Customer Journeys

Listening closely to our design partners, we recognized a gap in the market for a next-generation Conversational AI platform tailored to complex enterprise needs. In response, we developed a powerful system with over 30 specialized AI agents working together to automate complex customer interactions.

The platform is built on a unique knowledge engine that blends advanced data technologies, including graphs, semantics, and structured databases - enabling enterprises in B2C industries to better leverage their data and simplify long, complex purchasing journeys.

Our clients like Showroomprivé, Effy, and Havas Voyages are already experiencing the impact of our platform. Havas Voyages saw a 200% surge in web leads, conducted tens of thousands of personalized sales conversations, and generated thousands of qualified leads in just three months, all while converting prospects through AI in under two minutes.

“We have been captivated by Kleio’s vision to redefine customer experience with Conversational AI,” said David Dayan, CEO of Showroomprivé.com. “Their platform unlocks new possibilities for elevated customer experiences with hyper-personalization, and significant sales growth for Showroomprivé,” added Nicolas Gerbal, Director Travel & Leisure at Showroomprivé.com.

Accelerating Growth and Expansion in 2025

With €3M in fresh funding, we plan to enhance our platform by increasing the number and skills of our AI agents, integrating with more Enterprise systems, and training benchmark-leading AI models for sales.

“Our goal is to provide enterprises with an AI platform to create tailored, intuitive, data-driven buying experiences that outperform in-store interactions,” said Philippe Wellens, Co-Founder and CEO of Kleio. "We position ourselves as long-term partners, continuously enhancing customer experiences for brands and delivering measurable boosts in sales results. We’re also technological partners for other sales-related use cases such as augmentation of internal sales teams, lead nurturing and lead scoring."

We're also setting our sights on new markets as a part of its 2025 expansion strategy. To fuel our growth and meet surging demand, we also aim to scale our engineering, sales, and marketing teams.
