From Bridging Dev and Rev to Becoming a Unicorn

“With us, what you see is what you get, anytime all the time!”, said Dheeraj Pandey.

DevRev, an AI-driven startup founded in October 2020 by Dheeraj Pandey and Manoj Agarwal, has been at the forefront of transforming the intersection of product development and customer engagement through innovative AI initiatives. Development, or Dev, represents product, while revenue, or Rev, represents the client. Their goal is to bridge the gap between employees committed to customers and those focused on products, enhancing productivity and fostering a customer- and product-centric culture throughout the organization.

Funding Milestones

"Today, every company is a software company, yet we isolate developers (dev) from customers and revenue (rev)," said DevRev CEO Pandey. "By removing the bureaucracy between makers and consumers — with APIs, design, and an opinionated engagement model — we will empower devs to create customer-conscious products and businesses. That's our mission: bring dev and rev together!"

DevRev has successfully secured substantial funding to fuel its ambitious vision. The company started with $50 million in seed funding and raised over $85 million in seed funding from investors like Khosla Ventures and Mayfield Fund. More recently, it completed a $100.8 million Series A funding round, elevating its valuation to $1.15 billion. The now unicorn is set to do a lot of hard work and work for customers in the coming years.
