The $10 Million Seed Extension
Hyperline announced the successful closure of a $10 million seed extension round in January 2025, bringing its seed funding to more than $14 million. Index Ventures, the venture capital firm that has supported companies such as Revolut and Adyen, led the round. This investment marks growing confidence in Hyperline’s mission to simplify and automate billing processes for SMEs.
The Challenges of Modern Billing
In fact, as companies grow, so does the complexity of managing their billing operations. Traditional systems typically fail to eliminate inaccuracies and manual errors that lead to inefficiencies, which result in leakage of revenue and loss of customer satisfaction. Hyperline’s platform automatically handles billing workflows, ensuring accuracy and real-time insights into the revenue streams generated. This minimizes the administrative burden on the finance teams while improving the customer experience.

Wider Market Reach
Hyperline will reach out to a broader audience of SMEs across the globe with the new funding, targeting a more general audience aside from early adopters. The expansion efforts are set to increase scaled distribution efforts, enhance its platform abilities, and identify new markets, especially in Europe and the United States. It aligns with the growing demand for flexible, automated revenue management solutions for SMEs to better survive the complexity of a digital economy.
Client Success and Adoption
Within a short period, Hyperline had grown so greatly that its clientele base increased 20 times since the last 18 months. This platform is being used by more than 150 small and medium-sized software and technology businesses, whose clients include, among others, Infinit, Veesion, Gladia, Qobra, Ocus, and ScorePlay. These companies, which span across sectors such as AI, construction, healthcare, hospitality, travel, and fintech, have used Hyperline’s platform to simplify their billing processes and help revenue growth.
The Role of Index Ventures
Index Ventures’ participation in the funding round speaks to the venture capital firm’s confidence in Hyperline’s vision and potential. Julia Andre, Partner at Index Ventures, commented by saying, “Lucas is a special founder building Hyperline with an infectious sense of urgency and ambition. With Clément, he has put together a world-class team of fintech specialists whose track record of product building for small and medium businesses in themselves speaks for itself.
