Teammates.ai Announces Funding Round to Advance Autonomous AI Workforce Platform

Teammates.ai, a Dubai-based developer of autonomous AI agents, has raised funding from prominent investors including Hustle Fund, Access Bridge Ventures, Oraseya Capital, Beyond Capital, and angel investors. The amount remains undisclosed but will be used to support the platform’s upcoming launch.

Led by Kareem Ayyad, CEO and Founder, Teammates.ai is at the forefront of creating Autonomous AI Teammates, intelligent agents designed to revolutionize workforce operations. Following the launch of its first AI teammate, Raya, in 2024, the company is introducing its second AI agent focused on Inside Sales.

Teammates.ai has demonstrated rapid growth since its inception as Uktob.ai in 2023. Within months, the platform attracted over 400,000 users, including 100,000 monthly active users. Its technology has been adopted by five major government entities, with high-profile deployments for organizations like the Dubai Future Foundation, the Artificial Intelligence Office, and the Ministry of Cabinet Affairs.

Founder Kareem Ayyad highlighted the platform’s potential to transform workforce operations by integrating intelligent, task-specific AI agents that enhance productivity and efficiency. The introduction of specialized teammates such as Raya and the new Inside Sales agent reflects the company’s focus on addressing specific business needs through scalable AI solutions.

This funding positions Teammates.ai to expand its footprint in AI workforce innovation, with plans to further develop its platform and support a growing demand for autonomous AI in government and enterprise sectors.
