Unframe Raises $50M to Solve Enterprise AI

It’s been a minute since SiliconSnark dipped its toes into the tepid, jargon-infested waters of enterprise tech. But every so often, a press release floats by that practically begs for a light roast—and Unframe delivered a five-course tasting menu. Fresh out of stealth and $50 million richer, this Cupertino-based startup wants to “turnkey” your enterprise AI into existence in “hours, not months,” like a meal kit for CTOs who forgot how to cook.

Backed by a VC Avengers lineup (Bessemer, Craft, Third Point, et al.), Unframe has emerged to boldly solve "any enterprise AI use case at scale"—a phrase so broad it might as well include making coffee and babysitting your Kubernetes cluster. With a self-reported ARR already in the millions, Unframe says it’s helping “the world’s leading enterprises” spin up custom AI solutions faster than your legal team can say “vendor onboarding.”

The pitch? A “Blueprint Approach” that skips over fine-tuning, training, and presumably the entire software development lifecycle, to deliver “perfectly adapted solutions” that you don’t have to pay for until you’re emotionally fulfilled or financially trapped—whichever comes first.

“Our AI solutions are built to do more than just improve traditional enterprise workflows,” says CEO Shay Levi, who previously co-founded Noname Security and sold it for $500M, so he knows a thing or two about buzzwords that pay.

Among the platform’s superpowers:

• Custom solutions with no restrictions (we assume that’s legally binding),
• Integrations with literally anything that has an API, and
• A bold promise that customers “don’t pay until they’re happy,” which feels like an emotional hostage negotiation tactic.

And in case you thought this was just another startup chasing its Series A like a golden retriever with a pitch deck, Unframe already counts Cushman & Wakefield and Nomura as believers in the AI gospel. Cushman’s CIO says their AI+ strategy is “aggressively pushing forward,” which we assume means someone finally figured out how to use ChatGPT without accidentally deleting the CRM.

Oh, and they’ve partnered with Climb Channel Solutions to scale across the UK, because what’s more British than reselling SaaS to enterprise clients who still think “cloud” is a weather pattern?

Final Verdict

Unframe is either the savior of enterprise AI or the latest vendor to slap a sexy UI on OpenAI’s playground and call it a platform. Either way, $50M says they’ll be pitching you very soon—so buckle up, dear CIO. The turnkey train has no brakes.

Welcome back to enterprise tech, folks. We’ve missed the jargon.
