AI 에이전트 기업 시에라, 15조 원 가치로 9,500억 투자 유치

We’re raising $950 million from new and existing investors, led by Tiger Global and GV , at a valuation of over $15 billion. Sierra now has more than $1 billion to invest in becoming the global standard for companies wanting to transform their customer experiences with AI. We have never had such conviction in the opportunity for Sierra and our customers. Just a couple of years ago , we had four design partners. Now, Sierra is serving over 40% of the Fortune 50, and agents built on our platform are powering billions of customer interactions — everything from refinancing homes to processing insurance claims , returning orders , and helping people raise millions in fundraisers . An intelligence inflection point AI has evolved more rapidly in the past two years than anyone predicted. AI agents have solved math conjectures and written a web browser from scratch. And thanks to OpenClaw , Codex , and Claude , millions of people have used personal AI agents for the first time. As the capabilities of AI have expanded, so have our customers’ ambitions for their customer experience. Two years ago, most of our customers’ agents were limited to support — tracking orders, troubleshooting devices, and resetting passwords. Now, AI agents built on Sierra are powering all parts of the customer life cycle, from purchase consideration to retention. Insurance : Powering first notice of loss, claims processing, and sales. Home lending : Helping people find homes, originate mortgages, refinance, and service their loans. Banking : Moving from service to sale, with tailored offers that increase a customers’ lifetime value. Healthcare: Running the revenue cycle management process between providers and payers. Telecommunications : Managing acquisition and subscription management. Retail : Driving product discovery and recommendations, and increasing cart sizes. And thanks to the ease of use of Sierra’s platform, our customers are deploying these experiences faster than ever before. Nordstrom launched their voice agent, Nora, in just five weeks. Singtel, Asia’s leading communications technology company, launched in 10 weeks, with resolution rates of over 70%. And Cigna, one of the world’s largest health insurance companies, went into production in eight weeks, cutting the time taken to authenticate a patient by 80%. From digitization to true transformation We’re in the very early stages of AI adoption. Agents have enabled us to digitize the last remaining analog channel: the telephone. All of us can now get things done without waiting on hold, in any language, and at any time of day (good riddance, IVR systems ). But once we’ve digitized these slow, expensive, and frustrating experiences, what’s possible now that wasn’t possible before? What does it mean to truly transform your customer experience? AI agents are different from what came before because they are personal, proactive, and act independently — serving each of your customers individually, and optimizing for their happiness and your business goals. Rather than building agents to have one and done conversations, you’ll build agents that manage relationships — anticipating your customers’ needs, resolving issues, and driving outcomes like sales, retention, and loyalty. That’s the shift Sierra is building for, with a product and partnership model that enables the great companies of the world to transform their businesses with AI as fast as they can deploy agents today. We’re deeply grateful to our customers for helping show what’s possible. If you’re not yet using Sierra, we’d love to partner with you.
