Paid, AI Agent, “results bills” from Manny Medina, increases a huge seed of $ 21 million

Mane Medina, who was previously known as the founder of the Corporation for the start of sales automation to start (evaluation of $ 4.4 billion), has paid investors as young employees start.

I just closed only a $ 21.6 million seed tour led by Lightspeed. With the pre -seed tour of 10 million euros It was raised in MarchLondon -based paid has already raised $ 33.3 million and has not reached the A series “yet. A source familiar with the deal says that the startup evaluation exceeds $ 100 million.

The paid out of the ghost came out in March, where he made an interesting contribution to the world of Ai Agency: The company does not provide agents. It provides a way to agents to charge their customers in exchange for these workers algorithms, based on the value of their agents. This is an increased theme in artificial intelligence, sometimes called “results -based bills”.

The promises to help the agents of the agents describe “starting to impose fees on the margin points provided by their customers.”

It is a new way to charge programs for the era of artificial intelligence. This is instead of unlimited use, user fees in the Sais era, or unlimited use, purchase and stability fees in the age of the customer/server.

User fees do not work because agent makers pay use fees for model service providers as well as cloud services providers. Unlimited use can push them red. (The world of starting coding in this case tends to suffer.)

Instead, Medina Techcrunch tells, “instead,” I need to show the value of the agent to your customers, because agents work in the background most of the time. ” If the agents are working as announced, they will be increasingly appointed, with no growing work burdens without anyone noticing them.

“If you are a quiet agent, you do not receive their salaries,” she says. “You need an infrastructure that allows the agent to impose fees on the additional work that the agent does,”

However, imposing a monthly fee for a limited number of credits-the soldiers of the models and programmers of the atmosphere-a risky order for agents as well. This is because companies do not want to pay the price of artificial intelligence, which is still more than artificial intelligence. After billions were spent on pilots of artificial intelligence, about 95 % of institution projects were found that have no value, with only 5 % in production, according to A recent study from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Companies do not want to push agents to produce more emails that no one reads.

One of the first start starting customers, for example, is the craftsman, Viral sales automation start starting. (By the way, you can hear the CEO of Artisan Jaspar Carmeichael-Jack talking about the topic in Techcrunch crashes Next month.)

But the paid is also the success with the Saas companies looking for agents for their next great growth. She said the start starting just the Erp IFS seller as a new customer.

The investment company has invested “more than $ 2.5 billion in infrastructure companies and AI app over the past three years,” and has witnessed directly that most of the artificial intelligence pilots fail.

Schmidt said: “The essence of this problem is that no one can suspend value on what the agents do today.”

Schmidt believes that the paid is, so far, unique in her approach, saying, “It is something that we have not seen another person he is built.” There is no doubt that more competition for the bills based on the results of the agents will come if they really help the agents enter the workforce in the Mass.
