Compri Raises €3.2M to Deploy AI Agents Across Industrial Procurement

a close up of a one dollar bill

Milan-based startup Compri has closed a €3.2 million seed round led by Picus Capital, with participation from Shapers, Italian Founders Fund, and DFF Ventures, bringing total funding to over €5 million. The company was founded by Edoardo Arbizzi and Edoardo Gava.

Compri’s AI platform is designed to address one of manufacturing’s most persistently underdigitised functions. Its agents automate repetitive procurement tasks including supplier follow-ups, document collection, compliance monitoring, and order confirmation checks, drawing on data consolidated from ERP systems, emails, and PDFs. The goal is to free procurement teams from administrative overhead and redirect their focus toward supplier negotiations, strategic sourcing, and cost optimisation.

The company is targeting Europe’s industrial sector, where fragmented systems and manual workflows remain widespread, positioning AI-driven procurement automation as a significant untapped opportunity.
