About Pie Tech
Pie (Pie Tech) is a New York AI growth platform for Main Street small businesses founded in 2024 by former Square and Toast operators Syed Ali (CEO) and Akhil Mantripragada (CTO). Its suite combines Growth (automated campaigns across Google Maps, Yelp, Nextdoor and other local channels), AI Search / Generative Engine Optimization so merchants appear in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and similar answer engines, and Front Desk, a 24/7 AI receptionist that answers calls, books appointments and handles customer questions. Pie reaches merchants directly and through embedded partnerships with vertical SaaS platforms in categories such as auto repair, pet care, fitness and beauty, positioning itself as a lower-cost alternative to traditional marketing agencies. Emerging from stealth in June 2026, Pie announced a $19.5 million Series A led by Lightspeed Venture Partners that brought total funding to $23.7 million, with Capital One Ventures, Max Levchin's SciFi VC, F-Prime, Commerce Ventures, WEX Venture Capital and existing investors participating, to scale platform partnerships and deepen the AI product suite.
