I’m most proud of the fact that Decagon is already changing the way tens of millions of end consumers engage with the products and services they use everyday, from travel (@Hertz ) to financial services (@Chime ) to healthcare (@CurologyUSA ).

It’s clear that the customer support industry is transforming right before our eyes, but it doesn’t just happen by accident. It’s a testament to the talent of this team that they are bending the curve of AI adoption and bringing intelligence to every customer interaction.

We @Accel are excited to be co-leading @DecagonAI's Series C. It’s been a privilege to partner personally with @thejessezhang and @AshwinSreenivas since before the company was incorporated, and now to deepen our commitment during this next phase of growth.
