The Series B was led by Sequoia, with participation from new investors IVP and High Alpha, as well as Bain Capital Ventures, Eniac Ventures and NextView Ventures.
Attentive, a startup helping retailers personalize their mobile messages, is announcing that it has raised $40 million in Series B funding.
The startup was founded by Brian Long and Andrew Jones, who sold their previous startup TapCommerce to Twitter. When they announced Attentive’s $13 million Series A last year, Long told me the startup is all about helping retailers find better ways to communicate with customers, particularly as it’s harder for their individual apps to stand out.
Verisoul, the all-in-one platform for stopping fake accounts and fraud, today announced an $8.8 million Series A funding round led by venture capital firm High Alpha, with participation from Lookout Ventures, Bitkraft, Bain Future Back Ventures, and Third Prime.
The winner of TechPoint's Emerging Leader Award will be announced at the annual Mira Awards on April 24th, 2026.
Co-led by High Alpha and Ivy Ventures, the round will accelerate product growth, workflow integrations and hiring, as demand grows for predictive, AI-powered coaching solutions.
