Datarails figured that out early, back in 2015, before artificial intelligence was fashionable and before finance teams were told they needed to abandon the one tool that actually worked. Founded by Didi Gurfinkel, Eyal Cohen, and Oded Har-Tal, with roots stretching from New York to Tel Aviv, the company started by trying to tame spreadsheet chaos. Adoption lagged, reality spoke, and in 2020 they made the adult decision. Instead of fighting Excel, they built around it.
That decision now carries a $70M Series C price tag. Announced January 21, 2026, led by One Peak with Vertex Growth, Vintage Investment Partners, Zeev Ventures, Innovation Endeavors, Joey Low, Qumra Capital, and Claltech returning, the round brings total funding to $175M and pegs the business around a $550M valuation. That is patience paying interest.
Datarails is not selling software that replaces how finance teams think. It is selling relief. An artificial intelligence-native FinanceOS that lets CFOs run FP&A, cash management, spend control, and month-end close without breaking their Excel muscle memory. The data consolidates, the models stay intact, and the numbers finally agree with each other. Finance teams keep their grid. The platform does the heavy lifting behind the scenes.
Under Didi Gurfinkel’s leadership as Co-Founder and CEO, alongside Co-Founder and COO Eyal Cohen and Co-Founder and CTO Oded Har-Tal, the company posted 70% year-over-year revenue growth in 2025. Headcount climbed past 400 globally. More than a thousand finance teams now rely on the platform, many in mid-market companies that do not have time for theory or tolerance for disruption theater.
The timing matters. Over half of 2025 growth came from products launched in the prior twelve months, including Month-End Close and Cash Management. With the Series C, Datarails introduced AI Finance Agents that generate board-ready narratives, forecasts, and reports from unified ERP, CRM, HR, bank, and Excel data. This is not AI for decoration. This is AI embedded where decisions actually happen.
The CFO’s office has spent decades stitching together truth at the end of every month. Datarails is betting that truth should be available before the meeting starts. With expansion planned across North America and EMEA, deeper investment in R&D, and an eye toward strategic acquisitions, the company is building infrastructure, not noise.
