Customer engagement platform MoEngage has acquired San Francisco-based AI startup Aampe for an undisclosed amount. The deal strengthens MoEngage’s AI capabilities and comes six months after the company expanded its Series F funding round to a total of $280 million.
MoEngage has acquired Aampe, a San Francisco-based AI startup, in a move aimed at strengthening its artificial intelligence capabilities. The company did not disclose the financial terms of the deal.
The acquisition comes six months after MoEngage raised an additional $180 million in its Series F funding round, led by ChrysCapital, Dragon Funds, and Schroders Capital. The company had earlier secured $100 million in November 2025, taking its total Series F funding to $280 million.
Founded by Raviteja Dodda and Yashwanth Kumar, MoEngage serves more than 1,350 brands worldwide, including Flipkart, Swiggy, Airtel, Domino’s, and Policybazaar. The company said the acquisition strengthens its AI capabilities through Merlin AI and supports its vision of building an agentic customer data and engagement platform.
As part of the acquisition, MoEngage plans to integrate Aampe’s reinforcement learning and agentic decision-making technology into its customer engagement platform. According to the company, this will help brands deliver one-to-one personalization at scale.
Founded in 2020, Aampe develops AI infrastructure that assigns a dedicated autonomous agent to each user. The platform enables personalized decision-making on content, timing, communication channels, and messaging frequency.
Backed by Peak XV and Z47, Aampe has raised $27 million in total funding, including an $18 million Series A round led by Theory Ventures in December 2024.
As part of the deal, Aampe founders Paul Meinshausen, Schaun Wheeler, and Sami Abboud will join MoEngage and lead its agentic decisioning initiatives.
Aampe works with brands such as Grab, Swiggy, ZenBusiness, and Taxfix. According to the company, its platform operates hundreds of millions of AI agents and processes more than 200 billion decisions every week.
MoEngage said existing Aampe customers will continue to receive support and will also gain access to additional engineering and data science resources.
