Our team is taking over the $250B market of global companies engaging their prospects and supporting their customers through intelligent conversational voice on their websites and apps. We are starting with the leading e-commerce platforms in the world, like Shopify.\u0026nbsp;VOIQ is built by top Silicon Valley founders and has raised $5M from top investors.\u0026nbsp;Our founder and CEO is Ricardo Garcia-Amaya. He is the global thought leader in AI Voice for businesses. He is also the founder of two of the most influential private communities of tech leaders in the world; the Y Combinator Alumni group with $400B in valuations \u0026amp; 3,500 tech founders, and the Top American Latinx Tech Leaders with founders with $16B in founder exits, and investors with $120B to invest. He is a leader among the largest global community of tech investors.For the past 25 years, websites have been unattended stores treating every visitor under one universal persona. Until now, this has been a problem of scale, as only a human would be able to carry out a one-to-one conversation with each client. VOIQ, through Conversational Voice Assistants, brings the dynamics of the gaming world to greet every visitor under its own customized persona and guide them through the ideal path to convert them into customers. Businesses now have the opportunity to showcase their brand personality through the equivalent of their top sales person, and provide the best experience for each one of their prospects, whether it's one or ten million.","quick_facts":["Seasoned CEO/founder backed by top Silicon Valley investors, including YCombinator","Customers include AB-Inbev,\u0026nbsp;Airbnb, and Aflac.","The product is at the intersection of 3 hot spaces: AI Voice, Gamification, Opt-in Data","Partnerships w/ Shopify and HubSpot"]},"computed_metrics":{"total_amount_raised":372884,"total_investors":42,"team_size":1,"featured_investor_count":0,"faq_count":5,"recent_post_count":0},"quick_facts":[{"claim_id":"claim-fact-1","value":"Seasoned CEO/founder backed by top Silicon Valley investors, including YCombinator","citation":"https://wefunder.com/voiq2#claim-fact-1","observed_at":"2026-06-04T05:02:00Z","expires_at":"2026-06-11T05:02:00Z"},{"claim_id":"claim-fact-2","value":"Customers include AB-Inbev,\u0026nbsp;Airbnb, and Aflac.","citation":"https://wefunder.com/voiq2#claim-fact-2","observed_at":"2026-06-04T05:02:00Z","expires_at":"2026-06-11T05:02:00Z"},{"claim_id":"claim-fact-3","value":"The product is at the intersection of 3 hot spaces: AI Voice, Gamification, Opt-in Data","citation":"https://wefunder.com/voiq2#claim-fact-3","observed_at":"2026-06-04T05:02:00Z","expires_at":"2026-06-11T05:02:00Z"},{"claim_id":"claim-fact-4","value":"Partnerships w/ Shopify and HubSpot","citation":"https://wefunder.com/voiq2#claim-fact-4","observed_at":"2026-06-04T05:02:00Z","expires_at":"2026-06-11T05:02:00Z"}],"latest_fundraise":{"id":5195,"entity_id":"wefunder:fundraise:5195","state":"successful","offering_type":"506(b)","structure":"safe","testing_the_waters":false,"can_invest_now":false,"funding_started_at":"2015-09-15T17:11:24Z","funding_closed_at":"2015-10-04T08:31:13Z"},"investor_memos":[],"team":[{"id":39157,"entity_id":"wefunder:company_role:39157","name":"Ricardo Garcia-Amaya","title":"CEO","role":"founder","profile_url":"https://wefunder.com/ricardogarciaamaya"}],"featured_investors":[],"relationships":[{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:8776","relation":"has_team_member","target_entity_id":"wefunder:user:45898","target_url":"https://wefunder.com/ricardogarciaamaya"},{"source_entity_id":"wefunder:company:8776","relation":"has_latest_fundraise","target_entity_id":"wefunder:fundraise:5195"}],"faq":[{"question":"How do you plan to use the money from this round?","answer":"We just partnered with one of the leading sales/marketing growth firms in the valley which designed a best-in-class inbound and outbound sales \u0026amp; marketing strategy for us.
