Ramp, the corporate card and expense company, has raised $1.85 billion at a valuation of about $60 billion, and its pitch to investors leans heavily on AI. The Ramp funding round comes as the company pushes beyond expense reports into AI tools for accounting, collections, and managing how much businesses spend on AI models. It is the company’s second big raise in about four months.
Inside the Ramp Funding Round
Dragoneer Investment Group led the round. Thrive Capital, Founders Fund, Sands Capital, and Avenir Growth co-led, with Capital International, Fidelity, and T. Rowe Price among the other backers.
Bloomberg reported that the $60 billion figure is a pre-money valuation, meaning it does not count the new cash. Either way, it is a steep climb from the $32 billion valuation Ramp reached in November 2025.
Ramp’s Recent Valuation Jumps
| Date | Amount raised | Valuation |
|---|---|---|
| November 2025 | Not detailed in reports | $32 billion |
| June 2026 | $750 million | $44 billion |
| October 2026 | $1.85 billion | About $60 billion |
Taken together, the June and October rounds add up to roughly $2.6 billion in new capital in a few months.
Ramp’s Growth Ahead of This Funding Round
Founded in 2019, Ramp now says it serves more than 85,000 businesses. That is up from 70,000 in June and 50,000 at the start of the year.
The company also says it handles more than $275 billion in purchases a year and brings in over $2 billion in annualized revenue. Ramp reports positive cash flow and says revenue is growing 25% faster than it was a year ago.
The new valuation works out to about 30 times annualized revenue. That premium suggests investors see Ramp as more than a card company.
How Ramp Is Using AI
Co-founder and co-CEO Eric Glyman framed the company’s future around AI, saying the technology “opens up much more of the work” it takes to run a business. Ramp has shipped a string of AI products to back that up.
- Glass: a model-agnostic AI workspace where teams can collaborate and build shared knowledge.
- Ramp Accounts Receivable: automates the steps between a signed contract and collected cash.
- AI Token Spend Management: one place for finance and tech teams to track and control spending on AI.
- Router.com: sends AI requests to cheaper models when possible, saving pricier models for harder tasks.
Could Ramp Build Its Own Models?
Ramp is reportedly considering training its own AI models, which would be a first for the company. That would push it further from fintech and closer to the AI companies whose costs it now helps customers manage.
The move fits a broader pattern of software firms turning AI usage into its own product category, much like the trend we covered in AI SaaS economics.
A Shrinking Field of Rivals
Corporate spend management has consolidated in 2026. Brex, long seen as Ramp’s closest startup rival, was bought by Capital One for $5.15 billion earlier this year.
That leaves Ramp as the clear independent leader. Its reported valuation is more than 11 times what Capital One paid for Brex.
What This Means for You
If you run a small or midsize business, expect finance software to keep folding in AI agents that handle invoices, collections, and approvals. Ramp’s war chest means faster product launches and likely more pressure on rivals to match them.
- Check whether your expense tool can track spending on AI services, a growing cost for many teams.
- Look at model-routing options if your company pays for several AI models.
- Compare automated receivables tools before hiring for manual collections work.
- Keep a human review step for payments, even when AI handles the paperwork.

Conclusion
Ramp has raised $1.85 billion at roughly a $60 billion valuation, led by Dragoneer, just months after its last round. The company now serves more than 85,000 businesses and tops $2 billion in annualized revenue. Its newest products, from the Glass workspace to Router.com, show where it wants to grow: AI tools that do finance work and manage AI costs. With Brex now inside Capital One, Ramp has plenty of cash and few direct startup rivals.
