SaaS management startup Corma has raised €3.5 million in Seed funding to expand its AI-driven platform that helps companies control software sprawl, cut costs, and optimize internal application use. The round was led by XTX Ventures, with participation from Tuesday Capital, Kima Ventures, 50 Partners, and Olympe Capital.
Founded in 2023, Corma aims to address the growing complexity of corporate software stacks, which have ballooned from an average of 8 apps per company in 2015 to over 100 in 2023. Rising AI adoption threatens to exacerbate inefficiencies, increase costs, and create access risks for teams lacking oversight.
Co-founder and CEO Héloïse Rozès said: “Teams everywhere are overwhelmed by the number of apps they manage daily. They lose money, spend hours on operational tasks, and face growing risks from Shadow AI and permission sprawl. Our platform restores control, visibility, and efficiency for IT and leadership teams.”
Corma’s platform uses specialized agents to track licenses, user access, and usage metrics, enabling data-driven decisions. The tool has reportedly reduced software spend by up to 20% while saving hundreds of hours on provisioning and access reviews. Clients include Brevo, Owkin, Mobilexpense, Skello, Hack The Box, and Brut.
Ethan Imboden, Partner at Tuesday Capital, said: “Unchecked SaaS adoption often leads to overspending without productivity gains. Corma gives leadership and IT teams the visibility and actionable insights they need to thrive in the AI era.”
Corma was recognized in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for SaaS Management, becoming the youngest company featured and earning top marks for speed in rolling out new features.
Editorial Perspective: Why Corma Could Redefine Software Management
The growing complexity of enterprise software stacks is one of the least addressed but most costly challenges for modern companies. Corma’s AI-driven approach not only identifies inefficiencies and bloated subscriptions but also gives IT teams actionable insights to optimize workflows and reduce risk.
By combining license tracking, usage metrics, and predictive AI, the platform creates a scalable way to manage software in a hyper-digital, post-AI workplace. With Héloïse Rozès and co-founders Samuel Bismut and Nikolai Fomm leading product and vision, Corma is well-positioned to become a standard tool for mid-size enterprises navigating rapid software expansion.
The funding round led by top European investors indicates confidence in Corma’s potential to become a market leader in SaaS governance, particularly as AI adoption accelerates software complexity globally.
If Corma maintains its current trajectory, it could set a new benchmark for software efficiency and governance in the AI era, saving companies both money and operational headaches.
