The Librarian, an AI assistant based in Seattle and Singapore, has raised $2 million in seed funding led by Golden Gate Ventures.
Others who invested include Jeremy Stoppelman (CEO and co-founder of Yelp and part of the “PayPal Mafia”) and Twenty Five Ventures.
The company will use the seed funding to add more integrations and improve its GPT-based technology.
It will also expand its team in engineering, product development, and market growth to handle the rising demand.
The Librarian’s goal is to give every professional a dependable and quick AI executive assistant.
Co-founder and CTO Neil Kumar, who was an early engineer at Yelp and later founding CTO at HR tech unicorn Karat, stated: “Siri and Alexa never moved beyond parlour tricks because they were trapped in their own ecosystems. Professionals don’t want novelty, they want results. The Librarian executes, and that’s why adoption is exploding.”
The company says it already has 25,000 active users in the US, Europe, and Singapore, and that its users keep coming back at some of the highest rates in the AI productivity space. According to co-founder and CEO Tiago Alves, “The Librarian starts working as soon as you connect your Google account. You simply talk to it by chat or voice, just like you would with a real assistant, and it takes care of the task for you.”
