Dooly raises $80M more for its AI tools to help salespeople manage their busywork – TechCrunch

Salespeople have more tools than ever these days to help them with their work, whether they are tools to source new leads, keep those leads interested or informed about what's being sold, to track how the sales process is going, to manage those relationships once they are secured, or accounting tools to manage how and where sales are actually coming in. Today, a startup that's built a platform to help manage the data entry that powers all of that is announcing a swift round of funding to build on momentum and interest in its technology. Dooly -- which has built a set of AI-based tools to automate the busywork that goes into updating data in sales software, specifically apps like Salesforce, in order to get the most out of that software -- has closed $80 million in funding. Sources tell us that the money values the Vancouver-based startup at over $300 million. This is a "swift" round in that efforts to raise and close the funding happened quickly, and come not two months after the company had announced a Series A and seed round totaling $20 million.
