VoiceRun, a platform that allows developers to build their own voice agents, has closed its seed funding round with $5.5 million.
The round was led by Flybridge Capital Partners, with participation from RRE Ventures and Link Ventures. The investment will be used to expand the company’s voice AI technology and accelerate its time-to-market.
VoiceRun positions itself as a voice agent provider that meets the increasing reliability and governance standards expected from enterprises as AI agents see increasing uptake across industries.
To meet these stringent security and accountability requirements, Voicerun said it uses a code-first approach and a “forward-deployed” engineering model that supports rapid development while maintaining transparency.
Customers own their application-layer code, while VoiceRun provides the orchestration layer for speech-to-text, large language models, and text-to-speech, as well as tooling to continuously measure, iterate, and improve the system in real-time.
VoiceRun CEO Nick Leonard said in a press release that the company gives businesses code ownership, deployment flexibility, and deep observability capabilities so they can “move faster, clear security reviews, and deliver production-ready solutions at scale.”
“Voice AI has been around for some time, yet many enterprise projects are stuck between an impressive demo and a reliable production rollout,” he said in the release. “This seed round accelerates our work on the infrastructure that makes enterprise voice systems scalable and sustainable.”
Another key differentiator, according to the company, is deployment flexibility. VoiceRun supports public cloud environments, customer virtual private clouds, and on-premises deployments, allowing enterprises to meet data residency and compliance requirements.
This news comes as AI agents continue to see a boom among businesses 85% enterprise AI agents are projected to be used by the end of 2025.
Specifically, the startup is targeting voice AI in restaurants, insurance, banking and telecommunications, with early customer rollouts including phone ordering and reservations, contact center triage and lead qualification.
“VoiceRun took us from zero to production deployment in just a few weeks,” Chad Jacques, Tivi’s COO and co-founder, said in the release. “Their tooling shows us exactly what to improve each week, so accuracy and customer satisfaction keep increasing.”
