Agileday raises €6.4M to future-proof professional services firms with AI

Agileday, a Finnish technology company building a people-centric operating platform for professional services, announces today €6.4 million Series A funding. The funding round was led by Newion, with participation from Specialist VC, Vendep Capital and Business Finland. The investment will fuel Agileday’s international expansion and advance its mission to modernize how professional services firms plan, deliver, and scale their work.

Agileday’s professional services automation (PSA) platform connects talent, allocations, timesheets, and project financials into one unified operating system for services firms. Acting as the operational engine between CRM and financial tools, the platform synchronizes sales pipeline, project delivery, and financial data in real time, with AI at its core. By breaking down silos across sales, delivery, and finance, Agileday helps professional services companies gain clearer visibility, execute faster, and operate more efficiently as automation and AI are rapidly transforming professional services.

Agileday was founded in 2022 by experienced entrepreneurs Jaakko Hartikainen, Mikko Virtanen, Jaakko Hallavo and Hannu Kärkkäinen. While working together at the IT company Tieto, Hartikainen and Virtanen experienced firsthand the common challenges that professional services firms face as they grow. In response, they developed a human-centric and transparent leadership model, which later became the foundation of the Agileday platform.

“Agileday was founded because we saw how outdated management systems were holding both people and businesses back,” says Jaakko Hartikainen, co-founder and co-CEO of Agileday.

“Professional services firms don’t fail for lack of talent, but because information is fragmented, decision-making is reactive, and people are treated as resources instead of motivated professionals. We built Agileday to change that. By unifying sales, project, and financial data together with people’s skills and interests into one transparent platform, we help companies grow faster while creating the work-life people deserve.”

Agileday serves over 70 global service companies, ranging from fast-growing consultancies to publicly listed corporations, driven by 3x year-over-year growth and particularly strong demand among enterprise clients such as Apply Digital, Propeller and The Electric Factory in North America, and Knowit, Siili Solutions and Eficode in Europe.

“Our strong growth shows that Nordic values – trust and radical transparency – are a real competitive advantage for modern companies. When processes serve people, not the other way around, teams deliver better results faster,” says Mikko Virtanen, co-founder and co-CEO of Agileday.

“As a Nordic-born company, we’re now challenging global giants in this category, with a 100% win rate in client evaluations across all markets.”

With the support of the new funding, Agileday is focusing on scaling its technology and accelerating growth across Europe and North America.

“Agileday is redefining how professional services firms prepare for the future,” says Anton Keller, Associate at Newion.

“The founders have lived the challenges of running service companies themselves, and that firsthand experience shows in a product that genuinely addresses real pain points and helps firms reach the next level. With strong product-market fit, an exceptional customer win rate, and rapid international growth, Agileday’s AI-powered platform is well-positioned to scale across Europe and North America.”
