Sapiom has raised $15 million in seed funding to build a financial infrastructure layer that allows AI agents to autonomously purchase software tools, APIs, and cloud resources, according to TechCrunch.

The round was led by Accel, with participation from Okta Ventures, Gradient Ventures, Menlo Ventures, Anthropic, Array Ventures, and Coinbase Ventures. Sapiom’s platform is designed to solve a growing challenge in agent-based AI systems: enabling non-human software agents to securely manage payments, subscriptions, and usage-based purchases without human approval at every step.

As AI agents increasingly take on complex tasks across software development, customer support, and data analysis, Sapiom aims to provide the financial autonomy needed for these systems to operate end-to-end. The company says its technology could become a foundational layer for future AI-native workflows, where agents dynamically select and pay for the tools they need in real time.
