Platform adoption and customer impact
Founded in 2023, Elyos AI integrates its agents directly into industry-standard field service systems. The agents manage missed calls, scheduling, and customer communication across voice and email, reducing the risk of lost revenue caused by slow response times.
According to the company, customers using the platform report higher booking rates, improved response times, and significant reductions in missed calls after deploying the AI agents.
Investor perspective and growth plans
Investors highlighted Elyos AI’s focus on a large and underserved vertical market, pointing to strong early traction and positive customer feedback as indicators of product-market fit.
The new funding will be used to expand the company’s engineering and go-to-market teams, deepen integrations with leading field-service CRMs, and roll out additional AI agent capabilities across voice, email, and messaging. The startup plans to begin international expansion in 2026.
