Revora, an emerging player in the AI-driven e-commerce space, has raised $2 million in seed funding as it evolves from a conversational commerce tool into a broader AI operating platform for online merchants. The funding round was co-led by i2i Ventures and Oraseya Capital, with participation from Anchorless Bangladesh, Conjunction Capital, F6 Ventures, Hi2 Global, Orbit Startups and several strategic angel investors.
The startup, formerly known as MyAlice, was co-founded by Shuvo Rahman and Daniyal Baig. The company’s rebranding reflects its shift beyond simple messaging automation toward a more advanced AI-powered platform designed to support e-commerce merchants in sales, customer engagement and product discovery.
With the new funding, Revora plans to focus strongly on growth in Saudi Arabia, which has become its largest and fastest-growing market. The company is also looking to deepen its presence across the GCC region, where demand for AI-powered commerce solutions continues to grow alongside rapid digital transformation.
Revora’s platform uses AI agents to help merchants recommend products, recover abandoned carts and complete payments directly inside customer conversations. These conversations can take place on WhatsApp, Instagram or a brand’s own website, allowing businesses to sell through the channels their customers already use.
The company says its AI-led sales and campaign tools have helped brands increase revenue by 15 to 20 percent. This performance highlights Revora’s focus on delivering practical AI solutions that create measurable commercial value for online merchants.
A key part of Revora’s long-term strategy is turning merchant product catalogues into clean and structured data. This structured catalogue data is expected to become increasingly important as online shopping shifts toward AI-powered search, product recommendations and autonomous shopping agents.
Revora believes every merchant that joins the platform contributes to a wider commerce graph that helps products become easier for AI systems to understand, recommend and sell. This positions the company beyond conversational commerce and closer to the infrastructure layer of AI-driven e-commerce.
Co-founder Shuvo Rahman said Revora is being built on the belief that the businesses winning the next decade will be those that AI can understand, represent and sell for. Co-founder Daniyal Baig added that the company is most focused on the real revenue merchants are already generating through Revora.
Revora is currently live in more than 21 countries and says its revenue has grown ten times since it began focusing on Saudi Arabia and the GCC in late 2024. The latest seed funding will support further product development and regional expansion.
Investors have expressed confidence in Revora’s ability to deliver real value in the AI commerce market. The startup’s growth also reflects rising interest in AI-native commerce solutions emerging from South Asia and scaling across the Middle East.
Overall, Revora’s $2 million seed funding marks an important step in its journey to become an AI operating platform for e-commerce merchants. By combining conversational selling, structured product data and intelligent AI agents, the company aims to help businesses improve customer engagement, increase revenue and prepare for the future of AI-powered online commerce.
