AI 新創公司 Simile 宣布完成 2 億美元 B 輪融資,投後估值達 20 億美元。距離其結束隱身並公佈 1 億美元 A 輪融資,僅過去 5 個月,融資節奏明顯加快。

Greenoaks領投新一輪

這輪融資由 Greenoaks 領投,Index Ventures、Hanabi、Bain Capital Ventures、A*、Factory、Definition 和 CVS Health Ventures 參投。 CVS 旗下投資部門不僅出資,也是 Simile 的重要客戶之一。

從時間和金額來看,Simile 在短期內連續完成大額融資,估值迅速升至 20 億美元,成為近期 AI 新創公司中融資速度較快的一家。

產品聚焦合成用戶

Simile 主要為行銷和產品研究提供「合成用戶」服務。這類工具試圖用 AI 模擬不同使用者的行為和回饋,幫助企業在真實投放或產品上線前先做測試。

公司由史丹佛博士 Joon Sung Park 創立。他先前的博士研究計畫「Smallville」曾嘗試讓 AI 智能體在虛擬環境中模擬人類生活,並持續展開互動。

同類賽道繼續吸金

圍繞著「合成用戶」和模擬研究的創業方向,近期持續獲得創投關注。報導提到,同類公司 Aaru 也在去年 12 月完成 A 輪融資,當時估值達 10 億美元。

不過,市場對這類產品的關注點仍在落地場景。相較於「模擬全球 80 億人」這類宏大目標,企業更看重它能否在行銷測試、產品驗證等環節提升效率並降低試誤成本。
