The company reached Seed stage in February 2026 with a $16M round led by Accel. Sapiom's investor base includes 9 institutional funds, with Accel leading the most recent equity round.
Sapiom builds financial infrastructure for AI agents — an autonomous spend API that enables AI agents to purchase software, APIs, data, compute, and SaaS services without human intervention. Through a single integration of five lines of code, Sapiom gives AI agents controlled, programmable access to the API economy, handling identity, wallets, risk controls, billing, and settlement on behalf of agents. The product addresses a core gap in the agentic AI stack: agents can reason and act, but lack a native mechanism for autonomously transacting with paid services. Founded in summer 2025 in San Francisco by Ilan Zerbib — former Director of Engineering for Payments at Shopify, where he scaled Shop Pay to over $100B in GMV and built Shop Cash from scratch — Sapiom raised a $15.75M seed round in February 2026 led by Accel, with participation from Gradient Ventures (Google's AI fund), Menlo Ventures, Anthropic, Coinbase Ventures, and others.
