GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The raise reflects a broader shift of enterprise spending away from traditional SaaS tools and IT services toward AI systems capable of handling multi-step business processes. Ema's co-founder Surojit Chatterjee suggests some customers are already reducing reliance on large SaaS applications, framing them as becoming little more than databases behind Ema's AI layer — a claim that, if it plays out broadly, could reshape how enterprise software vendors compete and price their products.
- Ema raised $77M in Series B funding led by Creaegis, with Accel, Section 32, and Prosus also participating.
