Vertical AI startup Rogo has raised $160 million in Series D financing to accelerate its mission of automating the manual workflows of high finance. The round was led by Kleiner Perkins, with a heavy-hitting roster of participants including Sequoia, Thrive Capital, Khosla Ventures, and J.P. Morgan Growth Equity Partners. The capital injection follows Rogo’s successful deployment across several of the world’s leading investment banks and private equity firms.
According to a company announcement by CEO and Co-Founder Gabe Stengel, Rogo will use the funding to deepen technical integrations and scale its EMEA and Asia operations. A key component of the startup’s growth strategy involves embedding forward-deployed engineers and former bankers directly within the institutions they serve. This hands-on approach is designed to help firms transition away from manual labor—such as deck assembly and model rebuilding—toward high-leverage work like relationship management and judgment-based insights.
By focusing on the specific "pain points" of investment banking, Rogo is positioning itself as the essential infrastructure for institutional transformation. The Series D also saw participation from BoxGroup, Mantis VC, and Jack Altman.
