VOC.AI, a North America leader in AI-driven customer service solutions and intelligent insights, announced today the successful completion of a new multi-million-dollar funding round. The investment was led by Shanda Grab Ventures, in partnership with Northern Light Venture Capital and Starting Gate Fund. Unique Capital served as the exclusive financial advisor.
The funding will accelerate the development of VOC.AI's AI-enabled agents and support its mission to boost workforce efficiency through intelligent, AI-driven customer service solutions. By implementing digital employees to manage repetitive and routine tasks, human teams are empowered to focus on higher-value, creative, and strategic work.
"AI Agent technology is driving a paradigm shift in the global business ecosystem, especially in e-commerce, where intelligent customer experiences have become a core competitive factor," said Cathy Ge, Deputy CIO of Shanda Grab Ventures.

Its global smart infrastructure and regional capability matrix redefine the value chain of customer experience, introducing an evolutionary technology gene into the fundamental logic of cross-border commerce."
VOC.AI is redefining the enterprise software landscape with its pioneering AI Digital Employee, designed to deliver measurable outcomes instead of simply feature-stacking.

This results-driven approach positions VOC.AI at the forefront of a new SaaS paradigm focused on performance, not just platform features and complexity.

Its AI-powered support agents seamlessly manage complex customer interactions at scale, including company-specific policies and cross-border returns, while providing real-time multilingual support, 24/7 availability, and enterprise-grade compliance with ISO 27001, SOC2 and GDPR standards.
