Yoom raises ¥700M seed for AI agent business-automation platform

Yoom Raises ¥700M Seed Round for AI-Powered Business Automation

Yoom, a Tokyo-based software company, has raised ¥700 million in seed funding. The round included participation from Mizuho Capital, Canon Marketing Japan MIRAI Fund, Dual Bridge Capital, Shizuoka Capital, and Harizury (株式会社ハリズリー).

What Yoom Does

Yoom builds a business-automation platform that combines AI agents, no-code workflow bots, databases, RPA, and human approval steps so that internal operations run with minimal manual intervention.

The platform is aimed at non-engineers in operations, HR, and finance teams. It connects with more than 750 external services, allowing users to automate cross-department workflows without writing code.

Traction

As of September 2026, Yoom's platform had surpassed 70,000 registered users executing over 5 million tasks per month. The company was founded in 2022.

The Round

• Round type: Seed
• Amount: ¥700 million JPY
• Date: September 15, 2026
• Participating investors: Mizuho Capital, Canon Marketing Japan MIRAI Fund, Dual Bridge Capital, Shizuoka Capital, Harizury (株式会社ハリズリー)

Why It Matters

Yoom is targeting a segment of the automation market that sits between simple no-code tools and full-scale RPA deployments. Its platform layers AI agents on top of workflow automation, databases, and human-in-the-loop approval steps — a combination designed to handle processes that are too complex for basic workflow builders but too varied for rigid robotic process automation.

The focus on non-engineers is notable. Operations, HR, and finance teams are typically the ones running the manual, repetitive processes that automation promises to eliminate, but they often lack the technical resources to build integrations themselves. Yoom's connection to more than 750 external services addresses the integration burden that typically blocks these teams from automating cross-department workflows.

The investor list reflects a mix of financial and strategic backers, including Mizuho Capital and the Canon Marketing Japan MIRAI Fund, alongside Dual Bridge Capital, Shizuoka Capital, and Harizury.

What to Watch

The metrics disclosed — 70,000 registered users and over 5 million tasks executed per month — give a sense of usage scale, though registered users and task volume are not the same as paying customers or revenue. The next phase for Yoom will likely involve converting its user base into durable enterprise deployments and expanding the depth of its AI agent capabilities.

As businesses continue to look for ways to reduce manual operations work, platforms that let non-technical teams build and run automations themselves occupy a growing category. Yoom's seed funding gives it capital to compete in that space.
