$50m · Series A · Consumer research · New York, US
Belgian-founded Conveo, which uses AI to interview consumers and turn their responses into searchable research, has raised $50m in Series A funding. Investors include DST Global Partners, Balderton Capital, Visionaries Club, 6 Degrees Capital and Y Combinator. The announcement says the capital will support US expansion.
The $50m is the new round; the announcement puts total funding to date at $55.8m.
From occasional research to continuous consumer understanding
Conveo’s founders are tackling the gap between hearing from customers and making a business decision. Its AI interviewer and searchable research platform point towards a broader change in research economics: if collecting and organising qualitative evidence takes less time, businesses can revisit important questions more frequently. The company’s announcement describes that ambition as ongoing consumer understanding across product, marketing and strategy.
The investment question is whether that becomes a repeatable operating habit. Research must reach the right decision-maker, retain enough context to be trusted and help teams distinguish a meaningful change from noise. For Conveo, recurring use across departments would be more informative than interview volume alone. Its US expansion provides an opportunity to test that proposition across a larger enterprise customer base.
