Otter.ai raises $320 million in non-equity financing to expand enterprise business
Otter.ai will use the non-dilutive capital to expand enterprise sales and product development as it grows past $100 million in annual recurring revenue, the company said.
- On Tuesday, AI meeting tool Otter.ai announced it secured $320 million in growth financing from General Catalyst's Customer Value Fund to drive enterprise expansion and international growth.
- CEO Sam Liang stated the financing is repayable rather than equity, avoiding shareholder dilution. "We do need to pay them back," Liang said, as Otter will repay the fund with interest as marketing generates revenue.
- More than 40 million people use the platform, which has transcribed over 1 billion meetings, including teams at over 86% of Fortune 500 companies.
- Enterprise is Otter's fastest-growing segment, and Liang hopes to triple its revenue next year while competing against firms like Fireflies and Granola across Britain, India, and Canada.
- Pranav Singhvi, Partner and Co-founder of CVF, General Catalyst, said the investment deepens their conviction in Otter, as the company works toward an eventual initial public offering while prioritizing enterprise revenue growth.
