Ande Raises More Than $52 Million to Build AI Agents for Corporate Entertainment

Ande has emerged from stealth with more than $52 million raised to build AI agents for corporate entertainment, a narrower bet on event logistics than the general-purpose personal agents now racing into consumer life. The New York-based startup is pitching software for company dinners, customer events, catering, sports and other hospitality spending, where bookings must also clear budgets, procurement, compliance and expense workflows.
