Sachin Dev Duggal, Chief Wizard & Co-Founder of Builder.ai, says, “We believe that everyone, every business should be empowered to unlock their human potential, whether it’s creating new ideas or digitally transforming their business, and because of this, our choice of investor for this round was very deliberate; we wanted someone who had deep insight and immense courage to let us think and do differently.” 

He continues, “This led us to the only natural choice – Jeff Horing and Insight Partners. This is so much more than just capital – it’s a round for our customers, all the tinkerers, the people that never accepted “no” for an answer, the small businesses that said “we shall prevail” and the entrepreneurs who never blinked for a second.”

The company also welcomes key business leaders WndrCo. and Nikesh Arora as investors and mentors to help make Builder.ai into a generational business. 

“Builder.ai gives businesses large and small the superpower of building custom apps quickly and easily. WndrCo is excited to invest again and to partner with Sachin and team on accelerating growth in the US and beyond,” says ChenLi Wang, Partner at WndrCo.
