Company intelligence
As of September 9, 2026, Lightfield has raised at least $47M in equity across 1 sourced funding round.
Lightfield is a San Francisco-based software company.[1] The company is officially named Magical Tome Inc.[2] Before Lightfield, the company built presentation software under the name Tome, and Coatue Management led its Series A in that era.[3] It pulls in email, calendar, calls, Slack and LinkedIn activity and structures it automatically.[1] Every record can be read and written through an API, MCP and a command-line interface.[1] Lightfield launched in November 2025, and more than 5,000 companies had signed up by September 2026.[1] Peiris told SiliconANGLE that dozens of those companies replaced Salesforce with Lightfield.[2] Maverick Capital, Coatue, Audacious, Alumni Ventures, Greylock and Lightspeed Venture Partners also invested.[1] SiliconANGLE reported that Lightfield aims to compete with Salesforce and HubSpot.[2]
It is rebuilding customer relationship management software as a record designed for AI agents to understand a business and do work from it.[1] Lightfield builds its record from every customer interaction as it happens, so people and agents work from the same current picture of each customer.[1]
Lightfield is a San Francisco CRM that updates itself from customer interactions and raised a $47M Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz in September 2026.
Lightfield sells a customer relationship management system, or CRM, built to update itself. Its home page says Lightfield updates itself from every customer interaction, so its agents can run outbound, flag deals at risk, and tell users where to focus next.[1]
Lightfield publishes three plans and a custom Enterprise tier. Starter costs $89 per month per user, billed monthly, with up to 3 seats per workspace and up to 50,000 records. Pro costs $999 per month per workspace, billed annually, with up to 250,000 records. Growth costs $1,999 per month per workspace, billed annually, with up to 750,000 records. An extra capture seat costs $200 per month, billed annually.[2]
Lightfield says it replaces a company's CRM, call recorder, sequencer and enrichment tools with a single platform. Its Series A press release lists four differentiators: a record that ingests email, calendar, calls, Slack and LinkedIn on its own; a world model of the business; an agent harness, where agents operate through a standardized SDK, run analysis in a code sandbox and are monitored by evals; and an open platform.[2],[3]
Lightfield launched in November 2025. Its founding post, "Why we built Lightfield," is dated November 13, 2025 and credited to Keith Peiris and Henri Liriani. The post states the company's mission as helping founders build better businesses.[4],[3]
Lightfield's legal name is Magical Tome Inc., according to SiliconANGLE, which describes the startup as officially known by that name.[5]
Lightfield's earlier history comes from a single outlet. VentureBeat reported that Coatue Management led the company's Series A when it was still building presentation software under the name Tome. Lightfield's own pages do not mention Tome, and this profile carries over no figures from that period.[6]
Lightfield said in its September 9, 2026 Series A post that over 5,000 companies had signed up since it launched the previous November.[7],[5]
Lightfield announced a $47 million Series A on September 9, 2026, led by Andreessen Horowitz. The press release names Maverick Capital, Coatue, Audacious, Alumni Ventures, Greylock and Lightspeed Venture Partners as participating investors.[3],[7]
Lightfield says the Series A money will go toward accelerating its growth and expanding the scope of work its agent can perform for customers.[7]
Lightfield has not disclosed a valuation or a total amount raised in its announcement, the press release or SiliconANGLE's coverage. The press release quotes Andreessen Horowitz partners Joe Schmidt IV and Alex Rampell as investors. Neither is described as Lightfield staff.[3],[7],[5]
Lightfield's pricing page says the platform is trusted by 5,000+ companies, and SiliconANGLE reports that the startup has signed up more than 5,000 companies as customers. Lightfield's own post says only that companies have signed up. None of those three sources gives a paying-customer count, so the figure measures sign-ups, not revenue.[2],[5],[7]
Lightfield chief executive Keith Peiris told SiliconANGLE that dozens of those companies ditched Salesforce and replaced it with Lightfield's platform. The Series A post makes a similar claim, saying teams are migrating entire Salesforce implementations onto Lightfield.[5],[7]
Verdigris, an electrical infrastructure company in Los Altos, California, decided to switch from Salesforce to Lightfield, according to a case study on Lightfield's site. The case study says Verdigris had a decade invested in Salesforce, including nearly 10,000 contacts and a custom Implementation object with 211 fields. It also describes sales guidance informed by an analysis of 2,330 of Verdigris's own closed deals.[8],[2]
SF Compute is another Lightfield case study. Its inbound buyers arrive with specific requirements such as GPU SKU, GPU count, storage, networking, managed services needs and contract terms, and the team had been logging those requests in Google Sheets instead of its CRM. The case study says Lightfield extracts those details from customer interactions and populates them into opportunities with no manual data entry.[9]
Lightfield's customers page lists case studies for Thrad, Agree, Intent HQ, Power, SF Compute, Verdigris and Macroscope. Its customer grid also names Albert Invent, Atria Health Partners, Basetwo, Blank Slate Technology and Brand.ai. The page does not say which of these companies pay for which plan.[10]
Lightfield's cofounder and chief executive is Keith Peiris, according to the Series A press release and SiliconANGLE.[3],[5]
Henri Liriani co-wrote Lightfield's founding post with Peiris and has written for the company blog since, including an essay dated May 11, 2026. The sources reviewed do not state his title.[4],[7]
