Yoodli, a creator of AI roleplay and experiential learning tools, has successfully secured $40 million in its Series B funding round, led by WestBridge Capital, with contributions from Neotribe and Madrona. This raises the total funding for the company to nearly $60 million, following a Series A funding round completed in May 2025.
Highlights
Utilisation of New Funding for Enhancements
The fresh influx of capital will be directed towards enhancing AI coaching capabilities, analytics, and personalization features. It will also support the company’s expansion in areas such as enterprise learning, go-to-market strategies, and professional development. Yoodli plans to grow its teams in product development, AI research, and customer support as it scales its operations in global markets.
Overview of Yoodli’s Offerings
Founded in 2021 in Seattle by Varun Puri and Esha Joshi, Yoodli designs AI roleplay and experiential learning tools that offer users the ability to practice real-world communication scenarios. The platform provides simulations for sales calls, leadership discussions, interviews, and feedback dialogues, allowing users to engage in private practice environments with immediate feedback.
Enterprise Adoption of Yoodli’s Platform
Businesses like Google, Snowflake, Databricks, RingCentral, and Sandler Sales utilise Yoodli’s innovative platform. It integrates AI-generated roleplays with coaching elements, analytics, and systems for tracking progress.
Focus on Skill Development
Yoodli aims to minimise the time employees spend developing communication and interpersonal skills by employing adaptive practice techniques rather than traditional content-based training methods.
WestBridge’s Investment Activity
WestBridge has also been active in the investment landscape, recently leading FinBox’s $40 million Series B funding round and investing in the enterprise AI platform UnifyApps as well as the edtech company SpeakX. Furthermore, WestBridge participated in a secondary transaction for Rapido to facilitate Swiggy’s exit.
