Aligned, an Israeli-founded startup building an AI-powered 'deal workspace' for B2B sales teams, raised $60 million in Series B funding led by PeakSpan Capital, with full participation from existing backers Hetz Ventures, JAL Ventures and NFX. The round brings total funding to $73.8 million and positions the company to expand what it calls the 'system of action' for enterprise sales -- a single workspace where reps, buyers and internal stakeholders collaborate on a deal from first contact to signed contract.
Founded by CEO Gal Aga, CPO Gal Dietsch and CTO Yotam Sela -- veterans of Syte, Sisense and Yotpo on the go-to-market side and Oracle/Ravello on the engineering side -- Aligned has built a platform now used by roughly 70,000 salespeople and reaching a million buyers monthly, with customers including Deel, SimilarWeb and WordPress.com's parent. The company says its platform cuts time-to-close by an average of 30% and lifts deal closure rates by 15%, while its own ARR tripled over the past year.
The pitch sits at the intersection of two crowded categories -- sales enablement and deal-room software -- but Aligned's differentiation is treating the buyer-facing workspace as the primary surface rather than an internal CRM add-on. Rather than another layer of AI note-taking or forecasting on top of Salesforce, Aligned inserts itself into the actual buyer-seller interaction: shared documents, mutual action plans and AI-assisted deal orchestration live in a workspace both sides use.

Enterprise sales tooling has been one of the more crowded corners of applied AI, but Aligned's traction -- tripled ARR and a customer base including well-known scale-ups -- suggests there's still room for a workflow-native player to win share from both legacy CRM incumbents and a wave of AI-note-taking startups that never moved past the assistant layer into becoming the system of record.
For founders building in crowded enterprise-AI categories, Aligned's raise is a reminder that owning the actual point of interaction between two parties -- not just adding intelligence to an internal tool -- is what makes a workflow position defensible.
What to watch: whether PeakSpan's growth-stage backing pushes Aligned toward a Series C within 12-18 months, and whether larger CRM incumbents respond by acquiring a comparable point solution rather than building buyer-facing deal rooms natively.
