Our story
Contrary to what you might think, edrone’s story has nothing to do with flying remote-controlled devices that take cameras up into the air. Instead, we started out in 2016 by trying to answer a simple question:
Why did CRMs have to be adapted to e-commerce instead of being created for e-commerce?
Michał Blak and Rahim Blak, artists by heart but driven by an entrepreneurial mentality, were running their marketing agency and working with many online stores when they realized that small and medium e-commerce operations are underserved with enterprise-class solutions. They quickly decided to solve this problem themselves and created a powerful but easily applicable CRM and Marketing Automation system for every online store.
edrone’s Mission
The evidence that they had connected with an underserved market was clear from the beginning. edrone started growing immediately and quickly expanded from its home market in Poland to 25 countries on 5 continents. In 2020, the company got financial backing from VC investment partners at Portfolion – a series Pre-A investment of US$ 2.5 million. Eighteen months later the company achieved $4.4M ARR and improved the growth rate by over 100%. In 2022 two new shareholders – Atmos Ventures and Müller Medien – joined existing investors in the second part of the A series. which provides us the opportunity to expand even more in LATAM and CEE markets.
New funding round and plans for 2024
The year 2023 was another strong year for edrone in terms of business development – the company reached nearly $7 million in ARR. Thus proving its potential, edrone secured another round of financing. VC funds including INventures, Mueller Medien, Atmos, and PortfoLion decided to back edrone with a total of PLN 20 million ($5M). INventures led the funding round.
The investment amounted to PLN 20 million, including the new capital of more than PLN 10 million from INventures and the conversion of debt capital into shares by the other funds. New funds will be used mostly to expand the Brazil branch and hire new employees, at least doubling the company’s headcount in Brazil. In addition, the company plans to focus on improving business processes in Poland, product development and increasing use of AI in automation processes.
