AI office unicorn raises $250M with Nvidia investing, taking on Microsoft for enterprise customers

Bloomberg reports that French AI office-software unicorn Pigment has closed a $250 million round (about ¥1.67B) at a $2.3B valuation, led by Scaleup Europe Fund with Nvidia, World Innovation Lab, Iconiq, IVP and Meritech participating. Founded in 2019, Pigment builds AI office software for financial forecasting, presentations and planning; its annual recurring revenue has topped $100M after doubling year-on-year, and CEO Eléonore Crespo expects it to double again next year, with Google, Anthropic, Uber and Siemens among its customers. Why it matters: the company is explicitly going after enterprise customers now using Microsoft, Oracle and IBM office products — and Nvidia taking a stake in an application-layer AI company underscores how the office-productivity race has become a strategic front in the AI wars.
