Traza secures $2.1M in pre-seed funding to deploy autonomous AI agents that execute procurement tasks rather than just recommending them

New York-based startup Traza closed $2.1M pre-seed round led by Base10 Partners with support from Kfund, a16z scouts, Clara Ventures, and Masia Ventures

The company aims to modernize enterprise procurement, which currently relies heavily on email, spreadsheets, and phone calls despite billions in annual vendor negotiations

Traza's AI agents autonomously execute procurement actions like vendor negotiations and purchase orders, going beyond traditional recommendation-based software

Notable angel investors include Pepe Agell, who previously scaled Chartboost to 700 million monthly users before its Zynga acquisition
