Doss raises $55M for AI inventory management
Doss, an AI-native inventory management startup founded in 2022, announced a $55 million Series B round co-led by Madrona and Premji Invest with participation from Intuit Ventures and other investors. Doss provides an AI-first inventory and procurement layer that integrates with existing accounting systems and ERPs — including partnerships with AI-native ERP providers Rillet and Campfire and usage alongside Intuit’s QuickBooks. The company targets mid-market consumer brands (roughly $20M–$250M in revenue) and positions its product as a complement or alternative to legacy ERPs such as NetSuite. Doss pivoted from core accounting to focus on inventory traceability that syncs physical goods data with finance workflows.
Series B funding for a B2B SaaS company building AI-native inventory and ERP integrations is notable for enterprise software and commerce operations but is not industry-shifting for AdTech.
