Based in the US and founded in 2023, Bland is an AI provider for developing and deploying AI-powered phone calling applications at scale. Bland AI raised venture funding from investor Acacia Venture Capital.

Bland AI's product offering includes tools for programming phone agents to automate various tasks, live call transfers, integration of live data into phone calls, and customization options for selecting or creating human-like voices. Bland AI ensures seamless integration with external APIs, live context injection, and human-like voice selection. The platform also provides enterprise-grade capabilities, including fine-tuning through call monitoring, prompt filtering, rate limits for scaling, and periodic audits to maintain the highest standards of trust and safety. The product suite empowers developers to program phone agents capable of automating a wide range of tasks, from inbound sales calls to customer support interactions and B2B data collection.

In June 2026, Bland AI raised USD 50 million in series C funding led by Dell Technologies Capital, with participation from Archerman Capital, Tribeca Venture Partners, HubSpot Ventures, Emergence Capital, Scale Venture Partners, Upfront, and Y Combinator.

The company generates revenue by charging USD 0.12 per minute only for connected calls, billed to the exact second.
