Viktor.com, a startup co-founded by Pole Fryderyk Wiatrowski, has announced the closing of a $75 million Series A funding round. It's the largest Series A round in the history of Polish startups, significantly surpassing the $19 million ElevenLabs raised at the same stage.
The company was founded in 2023 by Fryderyk Wiatrowski, named to the "30 Under 30" list, and German co-founder Peter Albert. Both had previously worked as engineers at Meta before leaving the corporation to build their own product.
A Digital Employee, Not Another Tool
Viktor differs from typical AI assistants in that it's designed to act like a full-fledged team member rather than another app to manage. The agent prepares reports and presentations, writes code, optimizes business processes, and carries out tasks on employees' behalf, using connections to the tools companies already use every day.
This model reflects the direction the entire AI agent industry has been heading in for months, moving away from a chatbot that answers questions toward a system that independently carries out tasks and takes responsibility for them.
The next phase of AI adoption is agents that join a company, understand how the organization works, and take responsibility for outcomes - Fryderyk Wiatrowski, co-founder of Viktor.com
Customers treat Viktor like a colleague, not another tool - Zhenya Loginov, Accel
Who's Behind the Money
Alongside Accel, the round included Bek Ventures, Kaya VC, Poland's Inovo VC, and Tenacity Capital. Angel investors included Slack co-founders Stewart Butterfield and Cal Henderson, Synthesia CEO Victor Riparbelli, Framer creators Koen Bok and Jorn van Dijk, Airwallex CEO Jack Zhang, and Instacart co-founder Max Mullen.
The involvement of such recognizable names from the tech world shows that Viktor's product has caught the attention of people who themselves built companies using similar teamwork and automation tools.
What This Means for Poland's AI Scene
Viktor's round sets a new benchmark for Polish AI startups, showing that local teams can attract top-tier American venture capital funds at an early stage. It's also a signal that the category of autonomous AI agents for business, where large companies like Microsoft and Salesforce also compete, has room for smaller, specialized players.
For the Polish startup market, where venture capital funds invested a total of about 3.4 billion zloty in 2025, a single round worth $75 million, or more than 300 million zloty, represents a notable share of the entire local funding market.
Viktor.com has not disclosed the company's valuation after the round or its plans regarding hiring or geographic expansion. The company says it will continue expanding integrations with additional business applications.
