Day AI Announces $20 Million in Series A

Day AI, reimagining CRM for the AI age, led by Christopher O'Donnell, has raised $20M Series A, led by Sequoia Capital with participation from Sound Ventures, Permanent Capital, Conviction, and Greenoaks. Pat Grady from Sequoia will join the company's board.

Legacy CRM systems prioritize safety over speed, often turning simple questions into slow, complex projects. A new cohort of companies is adopting a different foundation, resolving the long-standing tradeoff between scale and control.

That shift has led to CRMx, a context-driven approach built to deliver insight without delay.

Traditional CRMs shift the workload to humans, while Day AI is built for AI agents, using a context graph designed for natural, conversational interaction.

By capturing not just events but the reasoning behind them, across relationships, signals, and outcomesl, Day AI enables true business understanding and autonomous action.

Manual data entry and fragmented analysis are replaced by automatic ingestion and instant insight. AI assistants continuously scan pipelines, flag emerging risks, and generate clear next steps in seconds.

In executive discussions, real-time questions surface immediate answers, highlighting at-risk accounts, underlying causes, and recommended actions, shifting focus from reviewing the past to actively shaping future outcomes.

Day AI adds the missing layer of context to frontier models, delivering a real-time, end-to-end view of the go-to-market motion. Whether replacing a CRM or complementing existing systems, the experience centers on natural conversation, preserving clarity and control as companies scale.
