Solidroad, a Dublin-founded quality assurance training platform for customer experience teams, has raised $6.5 million in seed funding to improve human and AI-driven customer interactions. The round was led by First Round Capital, with participation from Y Combinator, bringing the company’s total funding to $8 million to date.
As reported by Silicon Republic, Solidroad has joined Y Combinator’s 2025 startups cohort and recently opened a headquarters in San Francisco to support its U.S. expansion. The platform is already used by more than 50 customers, including Crypto.com.
In a statement, co-founders Mark Hughes and Patrick Finlay said, “We built Solidroad because we were tired of seeing CX teams treated like a cost center and forced to duct tape together bloated, siloed tools.”
Silicon Republic also noted that the company is currently hiring for a range of positions.
