SuperMe Says It Is Raising $20 Million to Expand AI Expert Network

SuperMe announced it is raising $20 million to expand an AI service that lets people consult expert profiles for career and business advice through group conversations or individual questions.

Kirsten Green at Forerunner is leading the fundraising, with Greylock Partners participating. SuperMe’s co-founders, Casey Winters and Ludo Antonov, started the company in 2024. The money is intended to grow both sides of its network: people seeking answers and experts whose knowledge informs the profiles.

Users enter a question on SuperMe’s website. The service selects profiles it considers relevant and brings them into a group chat, where users can ask follow-up questions. Users can also ask questions of individual profiles. One example is requesting feedback on a pitch deck, including weak parts of the presentation and questions to prepare for. Responses can come from profiles modeled on venture capitalists Mercedes Bent, Sarah Tavel and Josh Elman.

The profiles draw on public material such as LinkedIn material, YouTube videos, Substack posts and blogs. They also use information from connected services including Google Drive, Notion, Gmail and Granola, a meeting-notetaking tool. The material can include personal information and trade secrets, but those details do not appear in answers.

The service is free now. SuperMe plans to limit how many questions users can ask before charging them, and is considering incentives for experts to contribute more knowledge. People can also ask questions through Claude and ChatGPT using the Model Context Protocol (MCP), a standard that lets chatbots connect with outside tools and data.

SuperMe has about 13 employees and is hiring for technical and network roles. Technical hires will work on conversational AI and matching questions with experts. The company also plans to recruit people to find experts in subjects its network does not yet cover.

Winters held executive roles at Grubhub, Pinterest and Eventbrite and advised Airbnb and Canva part time. Antonov led engineering at several startups, including Pinterest, Lyft and Whatnot.
