Anon, a San Francisco, CA-based provider of a developer platform empowering secure AI access and control to user accounts online, raised $6.5M in funding.
The round was led by Union Square Ventures and Abstract Ventures, as well as early support from Impatient Ventures and ex/ante (pre-seed lead investors), with participation from Ryan Hoover (Founder, Product Hunt), Gokul Rajaram (early Google, Square, Doordash), Scott Belsky (founder of Behance; CPO at Adobe), and Amjad Masad.
The company intends to use the funds to expand operations and development efforts.
Led by CEO Daniel Mason, Anon provides an API to programmatically interact with services that don’t have APIs. This lets developers take “actions” on behalf of end users by leveraging user-permissioned integrations, fully managed using Anon’s infrastructure.
To date, Anon has worked with AI companies like MultiOn, Delphi, and Personal.ai.
The company will continue to provide interoperability for AI companies. The team is already starting to work with companies building CRMs to auto-record LinkedIn messages sent to candidates, sales teams to aggregate orders via WhatsApp, personal assistant applications to buy items, as well as book travel and table reservations on Amazon, Uber, OpenTable, and more.
