San Francisco based Hypersonix raises $11.5 million in Series A funding led by Intel Capital, taking the total fund raised to $15 million. Existing seed investors too participated in the round. The company intends to use the fund for rapid expansion and deployment of its Autonomous AI Analytics platform within consumer commerce industries, including retail, restaurant, hospitality, e-Commerce, consumer-package goods and manufacturing. As a part of the deal, Vijay Reddy, Investment Director, Intel Capital, will be joining the Hypersonix board of directors.

The investment comes at a time when IDC predicts worldwide revenues for big data and business analytics (BDA) solutions to reach $274.3 billion by 2022. It also arrives on the heels of Gartner’s finding that, by 2021, “NLP and conversational analytics will boost analytics and BI adoption from 35 percent of employees to over 50 percent, including new classes of users, particularly front-office workers”.

“Every wave of IT innovation creates a new set of opportunities,” said Mark Rostick, Vice President & Senior Managing Director at Intel Capital. “Hypersonix provides enterprises with industry-specific AI capabilities targeted towards decision makers and business leaders,
