Kata.ai
Kata.ai, a Jakarta-based startup that develops Indonesian-language chatbots, has raised a US$3.5 million series A round led by the Taiwanese Trans-Pacific Technology Fund (TPTF).
In today’s release the firm says it’ll use the capital to launch in new markets, starting with Taiwan and other Southeast Asian countries. This makes Kata one of a few Indonesian startups to tackle international expansion early on. The startup in its current form is less than a year old, though its predecessor, a virtual assistant called Yesboss, started in 2015.
