Opine’s new funding, led by S3 Ventures, solves a decades-old problem for companies selling complex solutions, where selling and delivering their solutions requires detailed multi-department synchronization.
RALEIGH, N.C., Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Opine announced today that it has raised five million USD, with three million in new funding led by S3 Ventures of Austin, Texas, with participation from Knoll Ventures, Atlanta Seed Company, Gray Ventures, Propel Ventures, Triangle Tweener Fund, and Feross Aboukhadijeh, CEO of Socket.dev.
This investment comes after Opine recorded 10x revenue growth in 2025, establishing itself as a rapidly growing market necessity, boasting elite tech customers like Docker, Tailscale, Socket.dev, Gainsight, BigID, and more. The capital will accelerate development of Opine’s unified AI-native workspace designed to streamline the entire technical sales cycle from initial discovery to post-sale delivery for complex B2B technology vendors.
Complex enterprise deals often span multiple departments, rely on an array of unconnected tools, and are hampered by siloed conversations. Solution engineers spend hours rebuilding context, leaders lack visibility into deal risks, and post-sales teams often inherit customers without knowing what was promised. Opine was created to fix this by bringing every team, data source, and process into a single intelligent workspace that surfaces risks early, automates repetitive work, captures every evaluation and handoff accurately, and keeps everyone aligned throughout the customer lifecycle.
“We’re excited to use this funding to continue to grow and support our innovative customers. They’re building and selling some of the most sophisticated B2B solutions available and need a unified AI-native system that understands their market and supports all the effort that goes into winning complex deals. This investment allows us to deepen our AI capabilities, advance our product, and expand our go-to-market reach,” said Akash Ganapathi, CEO and co-founder of Opine.
“We are thrilled to be backing the Opine team. After we spoke to executives at multiple customers, it became clear that Opine’s AI-native platform consistently makes sales, customer success, and product teams more effective at winning new business and delivering value,” said Eric Engineer, Partner at S3 Ventures.
“Since switching to Opine earlier this year, we’ve gained clearer opportunity insights, faster answers, and tighter team alignment, often cutting out a 30-minute call with a single question. We’re excited to expand our use of their playbooks and to see what the team builds next with their new funding,” said Mark Rida, Director of Solutions Engineering (Opine customer).
“The Opine team really understands the challenges of presales teams at scale. You can feel it in how they’ve built their product and with every interaction with their team. We’re happy to be able to deliver an excellent working experience to our prospects and customers,” shared Jaime Lewis-Gross, SVP, Sales Engineering (Opine customer).
Opine plans to use the capital to advance workflow automation, real-time deal intelligence, and unified data infrastructure. The company will also expand its market presence as technical sales becomes one of the most strategic functions in modern B2B organizations.
