Numeral has raised a $100M Series C, led by Insight Partners with participation from Salesforce Ventures, Benchmark, Mayfield, Uncork, Y Combinator, FCVC, and Geodesic.

This brings our total funding to $157M.

@numeral solves U.S. sales tax, VAT, and GST compliance for 3,500+ global businesses, trusted by companies like Supabase, Eight Sleep, and Graza.

We’re building the future of tax -- where AI agents, human expertise, and global compliance come together in one system.

Since starting the business in 2023, we’ve grown quickly across our core e-commerce and software segments, while expanding into new industries including manufacturing, distribution, and wholesale.

There is a lot of work in front of us. Sales tax is more dynamic than ever, with states like California implementing new taxes on software and more states using AI for enforcement.

We are hiring across the org from engineering to product, sales, and marketing. And we’ve just opened our new office in NYC. If you are looking for what’s next, I’d love for you to take a peek at our careers page.

Excited for the year ahead. And humbled to be working with investors like @insightpartners, @rebeccaliudoyle, @SalesforceVC, @katiessschwartz, @ZKokosa, @MayfieldFund, @SPangulur, @benchmark, @chetanp, @ycombinator, @gustaf, @uncorkcap, @susanwliu, @GeodesicCap, @arvindayyala, @FundersClub, @mittal, @mantisVC, @AlexPallNY, @ShaanVP, @lennysan, @moizali, @ringmybeller, @khency6, @asturnerr, @maariabajwa and so many others.

[Alex Ratner @ajratner]

I'm excited to announce @SnorkelAI's $350M Series E at $3.5B, led by @insightpartners and @S32_VC.

We've grown 18x+ in the last 12 months since launching our Data-as-a-Service offering, passing $375M ARRR this week.

As AI advances to superhuman capabilities, AI data & environment development must advance with it - and basic staffing and crowdsourcing approaches are not enough.

AI progress now requires deep research and technology work that combines human expertise with specialized AI in compounding ways. @SnorkelAI is building the RSI data engine and frontier data lab for this next phase.

We're honored to have the support of existing investors Addition, @lightspeedvp, @GreylockVC, @GVteam, P7, Factory, @WellsFargo, Walden Catalyst Ventures, and new investors @ThirdPointLLC, @MarchCPs, @BlumbergCapital, @AllegisCapital, @Frontlinevc, and @standard_vc.

–

@SnorkelAI started as a research project a decade ago at @StanfordAILab.

Our thesis was simple: AI progress would become increasingly data-centric – and therefore data development should be studied as a true research and technology problem, not just a staffing and crowdsourcing one.

Today, as AI capabilities verge on superhuman, building the data and environments to safely measure and train AI is becoming too hard for even the smartest human experts to do alone.

Only humans and AI agents, collaborating together in compounding ways, can meet the accelerating needs of the frontier, and keep humans in the driver’s seat of AI progress for decades to come.

At @SnorkelAI, we are building the data lab to define the shape of this new “Data 2.0” frontier, and the new paradigms of human-computer interaction needed to advance it.

Our key focus is building the RSI engine for data, where specialized AI models accelerate and improve human expert output, and in turn, scaled human supervision is used to continuously evaluate and improve these models – creating a powerful compounding loop to keep pace with an accelerating RSI frontier.

With this round of funding, we are also doubling down on our commitments to support data development for open benchmarking and evaluation (more news here soon!); an increasingly diverse ecosystem of general and specialized intelligence; and a path to safe, well-aligned AI built on robust training and evaluation data.

Data development will guide and drive the next stages of AI – and must do so in a human-centric, AI accelerated, open, diverse, and safe way. We are excited to support this mission in the next decade of research ahead at @SnorkelAI.

Managing Director Rebecca Liu-Doyle said of the news: “AI-native companies are bringing a consumer playbook to B2B go-to-market. More and more, they're scaling through creators their audiences already trust, and as generative engines reshape search, authentic user-generated content is becoming increasingly valuable. Passionfroot built the infrastructure for this shift: a platform that runs the entire creator campaign workflow end-to-end, with a data layer that gets smarter with every campaign. We're thrilled to partner with Passionfroot as they define the category."

Congratulations to Passionfroot on announcing their $15M Series A!

[Passionfroot @passionfrootme]

We’re excited to announce our $15M Series A, led by @insightpartners.

Passionfroot is the execution layer for creator-led growth — the way the next generation of companies reach the market.

As AI makes software easy to build, distribution becomes the real moat. Buyers no longer discover products through ads or SEO; they find them through the independent voices they already trust — the creators, operators and builders they follow. Passionfroot makes working with them something any team can actually run, end to end: discovery, contracts, campaigns and global payments, unified by AI.

Today we power creator-led growth for Figma, Replit, Airtable, Luma and countless category-leading AI-natives and Fortune 500s.

This raise lets us open our New York office, invest deeply in the product, and grow the team across New York, Berlin and São Paulo.

Huge thanks to Insight Partners for leading the round, to Creandum, Supernode and s16vc for doubling down, and to our customers for building this with us.
