DealFlowAgent, a UK-and USA-based AI-native investment bank, today announced it has secured a €646.2k ($750k) funding round to scale its platform and expand its team.
The round was led by Long Journey, a San Francisco-based early-stage venture fund with a team including Arielle Zuckerberg, Cyan and Scott Banister, Pascal Levy-Garboua, and Lee Jacobs. Its portfolio includes Uber, Loom, SpaceX, and DeepMind, among others. The round also included angel investment from one of the first employees of Temenos.
“Most business owners have never sold a company before—they wing it, or work with a broker who can’t track what hundreds of buyers actually want. Our conversational AI matchmaking maintains memory of every buyer preference and deal structure, so we can match sellers with the right acquirers, run a competitive process, and deliver more offers to choose from and better terms in less time,” said Joe Lewin, founder and CEO of DealFlowAgent.
Founded in 2024 by Lewin, DealFlowAgent is an AI-driven investment bank specialising in M&A advisory for business owners generating €1.15 million to €34.5 million (£1–£30 million) in revenue across niche, essential service sectors, including building services, healthcare, and software, in the UK and US. It handles mandates often overlooked by leading investment banks that focus on deals over €57.5 million (£50 million).
Lewin sold his first company, Zwings, and personally faced the challenges and expenses of the M&A process. This experience motivated him to develop DealFlowAgent.
The company states capital is shifting from pure software to AI-native platforms and roll-up acquisitions as 3 million baby boomer business owners in the UK and US, representing over €8.6 trillion ($10 trillion) in value, approach retirement.
DealFlowAgent states that its platform combines dedicated human advisors with a proprietary conversational AI matchmaking system that connects buyers and sellers. It highlights that this eliminates the fragmented communication and missing information that can disrupt traditional M&A processes.
“Think Boardy or JackandJill but specifically for M&A. It operates 24/7 and maintains near perfect memory of every buyer preference, deal structure, and interaction to surface the most qualified acquirers for each business,” the company mentioned in the press release.
DealFlowAgent has completed 22 transactions to date. Recently, the platform helped an online pharmacy secure four offers in four weeks and close a multi-seven-figure all-cash deal with a Y Combinator-backed healthcare buyer in nine weeks.
With the fresh funding, the company plans to scale its platform and expand its team. DealFlowAgent is currently hiring two additional Senior M&A Advisors, a Chief Operating Officer, and a Senior Full Stack Engineer.
