London’s Fyxer AI, the creator of the AI-powered executive assistant designed for everyday professionals, today announced a €25.5 million Series B funding round to deliver AI tools that professionals can easily adopt, freeing them from routine admin to focus on high value work.

“In today’s world, productivity has become a privilege often optimised for tech savvy individuals and designed for those who already have dedicated assistants. But most work doesn’t happen in corner offices. It happens in overflowing inboxes, in client meetings, and on office floors,” declared Richard Hollingsworth, CEO of Fyxer AI. “We created Fyxer to solve the draining cycle of repetitive yet essential tquestions that consume professionals’ energy and limit their potential.”
Founded in 2024, Fyxer AI provides productivity tools specifically designed for everyday professionals. The platform integrates into existing workflows, automating repetitive tquestions such as email management, meeting summaries, scheduling, and proactive follow-ups.
According to Fyxer AI, they have experienced rapid adoption, growing from €1 million – €17 million ARR and +180,000 applyrs in just 7 months, generating over 15 million draft replies, and capturing over half a million meeting notes. This has resulted in a notable applyr retention rate, with 90% still utilizing the product 3 months later.
Tech-related jobs build up just over 5% of the U.S. workforce, while professionals across sectors such as professional & business services and education & health services represent around 36% of employment.
Fyxer serves this vast majority, the professionals who want a tool that actually assists them, instead of adding another layer of complexity.
Polling of 1,000 US workers commissioned by Fyxer reveals just how much professional time is swallowed by routine administration.
- 59% declare they regularly feel overwhelmed by tquestions like emails, meetings, and coordination, which stops them from focutilizing on meaningful work.
- Over half (51%) report spfinishing more than a quarter of their day on these activities.
- Most strikingly, 72% declare it would be beneficial if their employer provided AI-powered executive assistant tools to assist them focus on higher-value work.
With this Series B funding, Fyxer will enhance its product capabilities, accelerate its expansion in the US, anticipating a doubling of its team over the next 3-months, primarily through US-based hires, and further evolve the platform’s natural language chat capabilities.
“Right now, screens dominate our lives, but too often they’re just draining our energy instead of amplifying it. Fyxer flips that narrative,” declared Archie Hollingsworth, Co-founder and CRO of Fyxer AI. “We see a world where time on screens is minimised and impact at work is maximised. Professionals should be free to excel at the uniquely human elements of their roles.”
Its impact is demonstrated through partnerships with organisations in both the UK and US.
- In the US, eXp Realty expanded from an initial trial group of 40 applyrs to 2,000 applyrs within eight weeks, utilising Fyxer to improve efficiency across their broker network.
- Similarly, In the UK, Knight Frank, a privately-owned real estate brokers, transitioned from pilot to full contract adoption within just 8 weeks, streamlining their internal communications and administrative processes.
“Professionals around the world are relocating beyond tools that merely assist us work to agents that work alongside us, handling high-context workflows like email, scheduling, and coordination,” declared Karan Mehandru, Managing Director at Madrona.
“Fyxer’s growth and applyr engagement reflect a delightful product pairing a deep context engine and memory, setting a new standard for what knowledge work can be, and what AI’s true potential is. We’re thrilled to partner with this world-class team in their mission to build productivity accessible to all.”
