AIsa's Seed Funding Round
AIsa, based in San Francisco, has successfully raised $6.5 million in a seed funding round. This round was co-led by Alibaba and Tribe Capital, with additional support from Draper Associates, Sumitomo Corporation, and Saison Capital. The funds aim to boost the development of AIsa’s transaction network tailored for the AI agent economy.
Company Overview
AIsa is pioneering a platform that serves as a capability layer for the agentic economy. The company facilitates AI agents by providing them with the necessary resources to reason, act, and transact efficiently. The platform offers a unified transaction layer that simplifies how AI agents access and pay for digital resources, allowing for seamless integration without vendor lock-in and a pay-per-call model.
Leadership and Vision
The company was founded by Jordan Liu, who also serves as the CEO. Liu has emphasized the importance of transitioning AI agents from merely answering questions to taking autonomous actions, which includes making payments and consuming data. "Our goal is to build a seamless interaction layer for AI agents to function autonomously," Liu stated.
Strategic Funding Utilization
The newly acquired funds will be strategically allocated to expand AIsa’s engineering team and enhance its payment infrastructure. The company plans to onboard additional models, data, and API providers to broaden the platform's capabilities. A significant focus will also be on accelerating the settlement capabilities using stablecoins for AI agents globally.
Growth and Development
Since its launch in 2025, AIsa has witnessed significant growth. In the first half of 2026, the platform saw a 150-fold increase in registered agent users and a 200-fold growth in processed API calls and transactions. This surge is partly due to the rise of AI agent frameworks such as OpenClaw and Hermes, which have driven more users to AIsa’s platform.
Future Prospects
AIsa is set to continue its growth trajectory by focusing on expanding its customer base and enhancing its transaction network. By integrating enterprise controls such as budgets and approval workflows, AIsa aims to support autonomous agents transacting securely at an internet scale.
The company remains focused on its mission to provide AI agents with the tools they need to operate efficiently and autonomously in the digital ecosystem.
