Gumloop, a Vancouver-founded no-code platform for building and deploying AI agents, has raised $50M in Series B funding led by Benchmark. The visual canvas enables non-technical teams to automate complex workflows across apps like Slack, Salesforce, and GitHub. The capital will expand engineering and sales amid enterprise demand from customers including Shopify and Instacart.
Agentic AI Funding Surges
Gumloop's raise follows n8n's $180M Series C at a $2.5B valuation in October 2025. The agentic AI market stands at $9.14B in 2026, projected to reach $139.19B by 2034 at 40.5% CAGR according to Fortune Business Insights. No-code platforms like Gumloop address the shift to proactive AI agents, differentiating from developer-focused tools.
Non-Technical Teams Need Autonomy
Sales, marketing, and operations teams at AI-forward companies face manual tasks like CRM updates and data analysis. Current solutions require engineering resources or limit to simple triggers. Enterprise demand surges 53% for AI agents per Jitterbit 2026 Report. Gumloop targets these teams at Shopify, Gusto, and Samsara with accessible automation.
Visual Canvas Powers Proactive Agents
Gumloop's platform features drag-and-drop nodes for multi-agent workflows, Gumloop Agents for tasks like support triage, and Gumstack for AI usage monitoring. Agents with Skills achieve 89% first-attempt success, up from 55%. Unlike Zapier’s trigger-action Zaps or n8n’s node-based setup for developers, Gumloop enables autonomous runs via schedules and triggers.
As CEO Max Brodeur-Urbas noted:
“They get addicted, they start building more agents, and then all of a sudden, the whole company is AI native.”
Shopify automated 20 million actions company-wide.
Benchmark Leads with Tier-1 Conviction
Benchmark, known for Uber and Dropbox IPOs, led via partner Everett Randle in his first deal. First Round Capital, Y Combinator, Nexus Venture Partners, BoxGroup, The Cannon Project, and Shopify Ventures joined. This mix signals growth capital for enterprise expansion, with Shopify as both customer and investor validating product-market fit.
No-Code AI Market Expands Rapidly
The no-code AI platform market measures $8.6B with 31% CAGR per Fortune. Competitors include Zapier ($1.4M raised), Relay.app ($30M+), and Lindy AI ($54M). Gumloop stands out with enterprise security like SOC2 Type II and VPC, powering internal support for its 19-person team.
Ex-Big Tech Founders Scale Fast
Co-founders Max Brodeur-Urbas (ex-Microsoft Azure Linux) and Rahul Behal (ex-Amazon AWS, Arctic Wolf ML Ops) built from YC W24. Head of Design Gonzalo Soto Mallqui's team from Intuitive Labs joined post-Series A. Roy Mathew, Airtable employee #26 and ex-Recurrency VP Sales, leads go-to-market.
Engineering and Sales Expansion Ahead
Post-funding, Gumloop plans SF and Vancouver offices with hires in engineering, AEs, and SDRs. Recent launches include Agent Tasks for scheduled runs and Skills integrations. Enterprise traction at Instacart (1,000+ users) and Gusto fuels national rollout.
