Context & Analysis

Pigment's $250 million Series E comes after a year in which the company surpassed $100 million in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR), once again doubling year-over-year. That milestone, disclosed alongside the raise, suggests the company has been adding revenue at a rapid clip while persuading large enterprises to drop legacy planning tools.

The investor list reflects a mix of new and existing backers: Scaleup Europe Fund managed by EQT led the round, WIL (World Innovation Lab) participated, and existing investors Greenoaks, ICONIQ, IVP, and Meritech joined, alongside a planned investment from NVIDIA. The company says the capital will accelerate its move toward autonomous planning, powered by its proprietary Graphite engine, and support expansion into new regions.

Pigment's customer base spans large enterprises such as Danone, DirecTV, Siemens, Snowflake, ServiceNow, and Unilever, as well as AI-focused organizations including Anthropic, ElevenLabs, and Uber. It also points to a recent selection by L'Oréal to replace its salary planning tool for more than 95,000 employees globally, an example of the kind of large-scale deployment the new funding is meant to support.
