Startup in spotlight: Fyxer.ai raises $30M to bring AI productivity assistants to everyday professionals

Fyxer.ai, a startup building an AI-powered productivity companion for professionals, has closed a $30 million Series B funding round, signaling massive investor confidence in its mission to automate the administrative grind for everyone, not just C-suite executives.

The funding round was led by the venture capital firm Madrona, with significant participation from Lakestar Capital and notable angel investors, including Salesforce founder Marc Benioff. The investment will fuel Fyxer.ai's aggressive expansion into the U.S. market and accelerate the development of its AI assistant.

Taming the Inbox, One Professional at a Time
Founded by brothers Richard and Archie Hollingsworth and CTO Matt Ffrench, Fyxer.ai was born from the founders' experience running a successful virtual executive assistant business. They witnessed firsthand how professionals were drowning in a sea of emails, meetings, and scheduling conflicts—tedious administrative work that consumes, on average, more than a quarter of a a knowledge worker's day.

Fyxer.ai is designed to solve this problem. The tool integrates seamlessly into users' existing email clients like Gmail and Outlook and acts as a tireless digital assistant. It can:

Organize and prioritize inboxes.

Draft context-aware email replies in the user's unique voice.

Take comprehensive meeting notes and generate follow-up actions.

Manage and schedule calendar events.

"Our vision is to make AI-driven administrative support accessible to everyone," the founders stated. "For too long, this level of support has been a luxury reserved for top executives. We're changing that."

Explosive Growth and a Clear Vision
The company's traction has been remarkable. Fyxer.ai reports that it has grown from just $1 million to $17 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR) in less than eight months, a clear indicator of the immense demand for its solution.

What sets Fyxer.ai apart in a crowded market of productivity tools is its simplicity and the depth of its training data. The AI is powered by a proprietary dataset of over 500,000 hours of real-world executive assistant workflows, allowing it to understand the nuances of professional communication and deliver contextually aware assistance that adapts to a user's individual needs.

With the new capital, Fyxer.ai plans to double its U.S. workforce and roll out advanced features, including voice transcription and deeper integrations with CRM platforms. The startup is not just building a smart inbox; it's building a true AI companion for the modern professional.
