Milan-based Webidoo, the AI technology company focused on making advanced digital tools more accessible and viable for SMBs, today announced the closing of a €21 million ($25 million) funding round.
The round was led by fund IXC3, part of the Azimut Group. The round positions Webidoo to expand its AI-driven execution model across the SMB market.
“The average small business runs 20 tools that don’t talk to each other. We’re not building tool number 21. We’re building the layer that finally makes them all work together,” says Giovanni Farese, CEO of Webidoo. “For too long, small and medium-sized businesses have had to compete without access to the kind of technology that could truly change the game for them. With this funding round, we are accelerating a much bigger vision: we want to give SMBs superpowers.”
Webidoo’s round sits within a 2026pattern of funding for AI-enabled software that aims to reduce fragmentation across marketing, sales, operations and workflow execution.
The closest comparables include AI marketing platforms such as Aizy and DOJO AI, sales-execution tools such as Sillage, Realm and Zynt, and broader orchestration or operational layers such as Contents, Toyo and Kestra.
The Italian context is notable: both Contents and MotorK are Milan-based companies raising funding in 2026, indicating that Webidoo is not isolated from wider Italian activity in AI-enabled SaaS and workflow software. Its round is also one of the larger disclosed raises in this peer set, matching Kestra’s €21 million Series A and sitting well above the smaller Seed and pre-Seed rounds in AI marketing and sales intelligence.
“Most SMBs do not need more complexity. They need technology that helps them act,” adds Ricky Gordon, CPO of Webidoo. “That is the role Jooice, Welpy, and Groow are designed to play. Our goal is to make AI easier to adopt, easier to use, and much more connected to real business outcomes.”
Founded in 2017, Webidoo is a technology company that develops AI-driven platforms designed to execute and automate core business processes. Through its proprietary ecosystem, including Jooice, Groow, and Welpy, Webidoo enables companies to adopt AI across marketing, sales, and operations.
The company plans to deploy a significant portion of the new capital to support a targeted M&A strategy, centered on acquiring client-facing SaaS companies and marketing agencies whose customer relationships, commercial reach, and service capabilities can be strengthened through the integration of Webidoo’s proprietary AI platforms.
In 2025, Webidoo reported more than €15 million ($18 million) in revenue and over €2.5 million ($3 million) in EBITDA, while continuing to invest in R&D and product development.
Andrea Cornetti, CEO, Real Estate and Infrastructure at Azimut Group, says: “Our investment in Webidoo confirms the strategy of our IXC3 fund to support Italian SMEs with solid fundamentals in strategic sectors. In a context where digital infrastructure requires technological solutions that simplify and maximise access to AI’s full potential, Webidoo stands out as an ecosystem focused on measurable results and international scalability.
“This is the second investment made by the IXC3 fund and reflects its mission to support the growth and consolidation of high-potential companies that are able to position themselves distinctively in complex and fast-evolving markets.”
