About Zenskar Zenskar is an AI-native revenue automation platform built to handle real-world complexity. It sits between your CRM and ERP automating everything in between: billing, revenue recognition, collections, usage metering, and analytics. Across any pricing model, any entity structure, any currency. Our vision: Zero-Touch Finance. Agents execute. Humans supervise. Finance teams set the rules. Zenskar runs them. Founded by Apurv Bansal and Saurabh Agarwal , second-time founders whose previous startups were acquired by Snapdeal and Gaana. The team brings experience from Google, Deutsche Bank, Elevation Capital, IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, and Harvard Business School. We have 5x'd revenue in the past year. We are default alive . Funding We raised $15M in Series A funding in April 2026, led by Susquehanna Venture Capital, Bessemer Venture Partners, Shine Capital, and Rho, with participation from Rocketship, J-Ventures, Future Back Ventures by Bain & Company, and Converge. The funding is being used to expand our Agents Marketplace and scale operations, not headcount. 📰 Read the announcement → See how Zenskar automates the full order-to-cash cycle, from contract to cash, without spreadsheets, workarounds, or engineering tickets.* The Problem We're Solving Finance teams aren't struggling because they lack AI tools. They're struggling because the systems underneath those tools were built for a simpler world. These systems label real-world complexity as edge cases and force teams into costly, error-prone workarounds: revenue leakage, delayed collections, audit risk, and finance teams buried in grunt work. Bolting AI onto these broken foundations is as good as a Ferrari engine on a horse-drawn carriage. Zenskar is purpose-built from the ground up: the architecture handles complexity natively, so AI actually works. It combines foundational flexibility + deterministic calculation + purpose-built AI agents to deliver end-to-end automation across the order-to-cash cycle
