Loops AI Secures Funding to Lead the Era of Agentic Commerce
Loops AI, the AI company building autonomous agents for e-commerce, announced today that it has received investment from a16z Speedrun, Andreessen Horowitz’s early-stage program that invests in new startups. The deal marks a step toward defining a new global standard for AI-driven commerce.
ISTANBUL: Agentic Commerce is a new paradigm where AI agents act as autonomous sales, service, and marketing entities, handling everything from product recommendations to checkout assistance and post-purchase follow-ups across web, WhatsApp, marketplaces, and social platforms.
At the center of this transformation is Loops AI, whose agents are already transforming customer engagement into a revenue-producing channel through real-time, autonomous agents that learn from brand data and user behavior. The company reports up to 20x higher engagement, over 70% uplift in sales per visitor, and up to 40% total sales growth across brands using its system - signaling a shift from traditional chatbot interactions to fully autonomous commerce operations.
“Agentic Commerce is the next evolution of e-commerce,” said Yusuf Bahadır Co-Founder and CTO of Loops AI. “We’re moving from websites that wait for clicks to intelligent agents that take action - agents that talk, learn, and sell autonomously. Participating in the a16z Speedrun program gives us the global leverage to accelerate this revolution from Istanbul to the world.”
Loops agents now support over a million customer interactions, reaching up to 99%+ intent recognition accuracy and outperforming legacy chatbot deflection rates by a wide margin. Unlike legacy chatbots, Loops AI’s multi-model architecture continuously learns from brand data and customer behavior, enabling its agents to act with the intuition and precision of a trained sales associate, at internet scale.
Expanding from Istanbul to Global Scale
Loops AI has rapidly expanded beyond its roots, currently serving over 50 brands across Türkiye, MENA, and Europe, including major names such as Tudors, Paulmark, P&G Fairy, Radisson Collection, Movenpick, and EasyCep. A key driver of this adoption is the platform’s highly scalable architecture, which allows brands to go live in under seven days-providing a critical speed advantage for high-volume e-commerce operations.
To scale this model globally, Loops AI has secured strategic investment from a16z Speedrun, Andreessen Horowitz’s flagship program designed to help founders build, scale, and raise follow-on capital.
“We’re proud to represent this region in one of the most visionary programs in the world,” added Bahadır. “Agentic Commerce isn’t a feature - it’s a new operating system for brands.”
Headquartered in the US with operations in Türkiye and MENA, Loops AI will use the new capital to deepen partnerships and advance its platform with proactive purchase agents and visual shopping. A core focus is the Agentic Network, a shared learning layer that enables collective intelligence while strictly preserving each brand’s identity and data privacy.
