Chile's AgendaPro, a leading software platform for appointment-based businesses in Latin America, has secured a $35 million growth investment. The round was led by Riverwood Capital, a prominent investment firm with a focus on technology growth and scalability, with contributions from existing investor Kayyak Ventures.
The platform provides an all-in-one service to streamline scheduling, client communication, payments, and administration for personal care providers.

The platform recently launched "Julia", an AI-powered receptionist that offers instant customer responses, manages scheduling outside of business hours and on weekends, and ensures a faster, more consistent experience. The use of embedded payments, automated scheduling, and local marketplace integration in the platform continues to grow among businesses offering appointment-based experiences.
