Legato, a startup that helps businesses build AI-powered features inside their own platforms, has raised $7 million in seed funding.
The company will use this money to grow its software product, which lets businesses easily add AI tools and builders directly into their apps—without needing deep technical skills.
Israel-based early-stage venture capital firm S Capital VC led the funding round, with support from Cerca Partners.
The company is run by co-founder and CEO Dana Rochman, along with co-founder and Chief Product and Technology Officer Shlomit Tennenbaum.
Legato’s technology lets regular business users—not developers or IT teams—build apps, workflows, and automations using simple, everyday language inside existing software platforms.
Everything is created within the platform itself, so companies can still keep complete control, oversight, and rules over what gets built.
“SaaS platforms are realizing that equipping developers and admins with better no-code or vibe-coding builders is no longer enough,” said Dana Rochman, CEO and Co-Founder of Legato. “The next battleground in the vendor AI race will be about empowering business users – those who understand the needs best – to create what they need themselves. Legato brings vibe app creation directly to non-technical users, turning professional services into an autonomous, in-product experience that is available to anyone. It’s a win-win: platforms stay competitive and retain ownership of creation, while users can create tools around their business needs, in minutes rather than months.”
Legato was founded by Dana Rochman and Shlomit Tennenbaum, with Rochman leading the company as CEO. Right now, Legato is working with SaaS companies in areas like customer relationship management (CRM) and human resources software.
In the future, the company plans to move beyond SaaS and enter other industries that use complex platforms and open APIs, such as financial services, healthcare, telecom, and energy.
