Pluvo Secures $5 Million to Turn Financial Data Into Answers

Pluvo raised $5 million in a seed round to scale its artificial intelligence-native financial analysis platform for finance teams.

The company’s platform delivers analysis that chief financial officers and financial planning and analysis teams can interrogate and simulate in real time, Pluvo said in a Friday (Feb. 27) press release.

To generate this analysis, Pluvo uses agentic AI orchestration to deploy specialized agents that analyze financial models, evaluate forecast assumptions and assess scenario performance in real time, according to the release. It then delivers insight in minutes.

The solution is designed to bridge the gap that traditional systems of record have between seeing data and understanding how it impacts the business, per the release.

“CFOs don’t need another dashboard,” Pluvo CEO and co-founder Alex Labrèche said in the release. “They need a system that actually helps them move from data to decisions faster. That’s what we’re building.”

Pluvo supports strategic growth-stage and mid-market companies, and several of its customers participated as investors in the round, according to the release.

“We already support dozens of growth-stage and mid-market businesses across North America,” Labrèche and Pluvo Chief Operating Officer and co-founder Seb Fallenbuchl wrote in a Wednesday (Feb. 25) blog post.

Pluvo plans to use the new capital to expand its agent analysis engine, scale the product and engineering team, deepen integrations with systems of record and billing systems, and grow its go-to-market efforts, per the press release.

Katheleen Eva, investor at StandUp Ventures, which participated in the seed round, said in a post on LinkedIn that Pluvo solves the problem of the assumptions that are built into financial forecasts existing only in someone’s head and not being captured.

“Pluvo treats assumptions as first-class data: structured, versioned, queryable and preserved alongside the numbers they shape,” Eva wrote in the post. “Over time, that creates something financial planning has never had: a longitudinal record of decision logic. Which is exactly what AI actually needs to move from describing what happened to explaining why.”

The PYMNTS Intelligence report “What Happens When CFOs Get Serious About Gen AI” found that 81.7% of CFOs said generative AI plays an important role in their financial planning and analysis process.
