Skene Closes €800K Pre-Seed to Scale AI Agents for Product-Led Software Growth

Helsinki-based Skene has secured €800,000 in pre-seed funding to expand its AI-powered platform designed to help software companies drive adoption, retention, and revenue without large sales or customer success teams. The round was led by Superhero Capital, with participation from executives at NVIDIA.

Founded to address the gap between building software and scaling it commercially, Skene uses autonomous AI agents that analyze a product’s source code to understand functionality and user intent. These agents generate in-product guidance that evolves alongside the software, helping users reach value faster and improving long-term engagement.

Teemu Kinos, CEO and co-founder, said the platform enables product-led growth to scale automatically, replacing manual, human-heavy processes with AI-native execution. Skene plans to use the funding to surpass €1 million in annual recurring revenue and extend its agent-based automation across the full user journey by spring 2026.
