Vambe is a Santiago, Chile-based technology company building an AI-powered conversational commerce platform for small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in Latin America.[1][2][3][4] It automates end-to-end B2C operations—such as demand generation, lead qualification, sales closure, payments, scheduling, and customer retention—primarily via WhatsApp, using multi-agent AI architectures that integrate with existing CRM and SaaS systems without requiring coding or prompt engineering.[2][3][4][5] Serving SMBs from mom-and-pop shops to large retailers in sectors like retail, automotive, and financial services, Vambe solves the "B2C commerce trap" of scaling human-led conversational sales, which becomes chaotic and expensive in WhatsApp-dominant markets.[2][3][5] Post-pivot in March 2024, it achieved $1M ARR (up 5x), raised $3.85M seed and $14M Series A, grew its team from 22 to 80, and maintains 17% monthly growth while processing millions of interactions.[2][3][5]
Vambe was founded by Nicolás Camhi (CEO), Diego Chahuán (CTO), and Matías Pérez (Chief AI Officer), emerging from UC Berkeley's SkyDeck accelerator as the top ARR performer in Batch 18.[1][4] Initially focused on debt collection, the team pivoted in early March 2024 after customer feedback revealed demand for AI-driven sales and engagement via WhatsApp, transforming their tool into a full communication platform.[1][3] This shift, inspired by real-world use cases like upselling during collections, unlocked rapid traction: pre-pivot ARR was $20K, surging to $1M by November 2024.[3] Early milestones included overcoming technical hurdles in AI orchestration for non-technical users, securing seed funding from Monashees, Nazca, and M13, and leading Chilean/Mexican markets with 1,700+ implementations.[2][3][5]
Vambe rides the agentic AI wave in conversational commerce, capitalizing on Latin America's "conversational economy" where WhatsApp has 150M+ Business users in Brazil alone, making text/voice channels central to B2C sales.[1][2][5] Timing is ideal amid 2024-2025 AI adoption surges, as SMBs face scaling pains from human teams amid economic pressures, while generic tools fail regional complexities.[2][3] Market forces like WhatsApp's dominance (vs. email/SMS in the US) and AI agent maturity favor Vambe, which influences the ecosystem by proving no-code agents deliver immediate ROI—boosting sales, cutting costs—and paving the way for AI-human collaboration in emerging markets.[3][5] Its traction sets a blueprint for global B2C automation, challenging legacy CRMs.
Vambe's momentum—$14M Series A, Brazil expansion in 2026, doubled engineering/sales teams, and new agent-to-agent ad engines—positions it to dominate LatAm conversational commerce before global push to US/Europe.[1][2][5] Trends like multi-agent AI, WhatsApp ecosystem growth, and SMB digitization will accelerate its path, evolving it from regional leader to accessible AI enabler for all entrepreneurs.[1][4] As the pioneer scaling agentic AI for non-tech businesses, Vambe exemplifies how targeted platforms unlock hypergrowth in underserved markets, transforming chaotic sales into autonomous engines.
Vambe has raised $18.0M across 2 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $14.0M Series A in December 2025.
