Syncari Raises $17.3M Series A to Automate Cloud Data Management
Team looks to replace aging iPaaS, ETL and RPA vendors and help customers restore order to cloud data chaos.
Syncari, the company behind the world's first no-code data automation platform, has closed $17.3 million in Series A funding. Crosslink Capital led the round, with participation by seed-round investors ANIMO, NextGen Venture Partners, SignalFire, and Dig Ventures. Syncari's total funding now stands at $26.8 million, and it will use this most recent infusion to accelerate its market rollout and lead this new category while expanding its sales, marketing, customer success, and engineering teams.
Syncari is taking aim at a growing problem that is a direct result of the explosive growth of SaaS applications and cloud data sources that are scattered across the modern enterprise: data distrust. The primary culprit of this distrust? The dozens of point-to-point connections created over decades with dated integration, RPA, ETL, or custom-coded solutions that don't allow for data coordination across the business. When executives and their teams can't agree on basic information, and can't tell good data from bad data, it's difficult for any of them to live up to being data-driven.
"We see a huge and largely unaddressed market opportunity: to make the modern tech stack operate as one efficient system with trusted, unified data," said Nick Bonfiglio, CEO of Syncari. "This oversubscribed Series A round underscores that investors see the same opportunity and demonstrates their confidence in the work done over the last two years by Syncari's team. This funding will further accelerate our product innovation and support our go-to-market strategy and investments."
"While the rapid adoption of cloud infrastructure and SaaS tools by companies large and small has brought many benefits, it has also created meaningful challenges of dealing with multiple systems of record and data disaggregation," said Phil Boyer, partner at Crosslink Capital. "The market opportunity for Syncari to reinvent data management to solve these challenges is enormous and transformative. Today, companies looking to achieve data consistency across their systems have two options: cobble together disparate ETL/ELT, data transformation, and data warehouse solutions — or use Syncari. We think the choice is clear, and we are excited to partner with the Syncari team on this journey."
The patent-pending innovation Syncari developed is a multi-directional sync engine that automates and governs the flow of data across the enterprise. It does this by enabling non-technical business users to easily stitch together disparate systems into one unified data model, something that until now required a team of experts and a 6-12 month project. Syncari has also drastically simplified data normalization, transformation, and management — making data automation accessible to everyone. This means marketing can create more qualified demand by targeting the right people in the right accounts, sales can accelerate deal cycles with a complete customer view, and customer success can identify advocates and prevent unwanted churn.
"Syncari is helping us simplify and democratize data management as we gear up to enter a new phase of growth," said Chris Thompson, head of marketing operations at Conga. "My team loves that it's codeless yet really powerful. Every data policy we build gets enforced automatically across every connected system, meaning we can actually achieve data consistency across the stack."

Uzbek national sentenced to 16 months for funding Syria-based terrorist group
An Uzbek national in Korea has been sentenced to 16 months in prison for sending funds to a terrorist group based in Syria, legal sources said Sunday. The Seoul Central District Court recently handed down the sentence to the defendant after finding the Uzbek national guilty of violating the anti-terrorism law. The court also ordered the defendant to pay 1.25 million won ($936) — the same amount the Uzbek national sent in six transfers to an account designated by a KTJ member between January 2024 and January 2025. Khatiba Jama'at al-Tawhid wal-Jihad (KTJ), a UN-designated Islamic extremist group associated with al-Qaida, has been linked to the 2016 suicide bombing at the Chinese Embassy in Kyrgyzstan and the 2017 suicide bombing on the St. Petersburg subway in Russia. The Uzbek national entered Korea on a D-4-1 student visa to study at a university-affiliated language institute and was staying in the country as an international student when contacted by the KTJ member. According to the legal sources, the court said the defendant "provided funding to support a terrorist group knowing that
Why Anthropic's blockbuster IPO is getting a muted reception in Korea
Anthropic's planned initial public offering (IPO) is drawing a muted response in Korea despite expectations it could raise a record-high $90.4 billion, as local brokerages and asset managers shy away from the deal following fallout from SpaceX's IPO, industry officials said Sunday. There were no Korean brokerages among the 22 underwriters named in Anthropic's S-1 registration statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Korean retail investors are therefore unlikely to gain access to shares through the IPO. Those in Korea will still be able to invest through exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Major asset managers, including Mirae Asset, KB, NH-Amundi and Samsung Asset Management, have launched a range of related ETFs since news of Anthropic's IPO plan emerged. The funds have provisions allowing index committees to consider adding AI companies such as Anthropic once they go public in the U.S. Still, asset managers are taking a cautious approach to launching and promoting the products, emphasizing broader investment themes such as U.S. technology, large language models and
Gov't says Nvidia's Korea pledges remain intact despite Jensen Huang's exit
The Korean government said Nvidia's existing partnership commitments to Korea remain intact despite disgraced CEO Jensen Huang's departure from the artificial intelligence (AI) giant. However, uncertainties linger as remarks by Elon Musk and others suggest that much of the cooperation may have relied on Huang's personal verbal commitments. The Ministry of Science and ICT said it held a meeting with Nvidia officials Friday, a day after Huang resigned as the company's CEO, and confirmed that plans to supply graphics processing units (GPUs) to Korea and other collaborative projects remain on track. “The second vice minister presided over a meeting with Nvidia and reconfirmed that the company plans to proceed with the supply of 260,000 GPUs and cooperation with Korean companies as previously announced,” Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Science and ICT Bae Kyung-hoon wrote on Facebook Friday. “We also agreed to continue ongoing projects, including connecting Korean AI chips with Nvidia's platform through NVLink, building AI computing infrastructure, conducting joint research on ph
Presidential office weighs life without parole as part of public safety push
South Korea's presidential office said Sunday it is considering life imprisonment without parole as part of an initiative aimed at strengthening public safety and cracking down on crimes targeting vulnerable people. The initiative will focus on crimes targeting socially vulnerable people, including relationship-based crimes and crimes with apparently random motives. The issue has drawn renewed attention amid a series of high-profile cases involving relationship-based violence in recent years, including the killing last month of a woman on the southern resort island of Jeju who had been under police protection after reporting stalking and dating violence, allegedly by a man who told police she was his former lover. The government will also step up efforts to eradicate crimes involving scams, illegal drugs, illegal private lending, digital sex crimes and false or fabricated information, among other offenses that disrupt people's daily lives or threaten public order, presidential chief of staff Lim Kwang-hyun said. Lim said the initiative follows instructions from President Lee Jae Myung at
Warming seas slash Ulleung's squid catch by 99% in 25 years
The squid catch around Ulleung Island has plummeted amid rising sea temperatures caused by climate change, highlighting how warming waters are reshaping Korea’s marine ecosystem and the coastal communities that depend on it. According to Ulleung County on Sunday, the local catch fell from 11,315 tons in 2000 to 1,852 tons in 2015 and 1,172 tons in 2020, before plunging to 141 tons in 2025. The 2025 catch amounted to just 1.2 percent of the 2000 figure. The decline has continued this year, with only 54 tons caught from January to September. Squid is the signature seafood of the island in North Gyeongsang Province and has long been a mainstay of its economy. The decline stems largely from rising sea temperatures, which have reshuffled the marine food chain and are pushing squid out of Korean waters. The National Institute of Fisheries Science (NIFS) believes squid that would normally grow off Korea’s coast have moved north toward Russia and other areas as their main coastal and offshore habitat in the southern East Sea has warmed. The average sea surface temperature around the Korean Pe
Megaspeed says Alice Huang left firm in August 2025
SINGAPORE — Singapore-based data center company Megaspeed International, under scrutiny for allegedly steering Nvidia chips to China, said on Sunday that suspected spy Alice Huang had left the firm more than a year ago. Megaspeed is suspected of helping Chinese firms get around U.S. export controls by buying Nvidia chips for its data centers in Southeast Asia and routing them to China. Its former director Alice Huang has been identified in U.S. media as an alleged Chinese intelligence asset who had a relationship with Nvidia co-founder Jensen Huang, who resigned as the tech giant's chief executive on Thursday. "Ms. Alice Huang officially left Megaspeed effective Aug. 30, 2025, and currently has no role with the company," the firm said in reply to an AFP query. "Megaspeed does not comment on Ms. Huang's personal and private matters." Alice Huang and Jensen Huang are not related. Beijing has denied the spying allegations. Jensen Huang acknowledged an extramarital affair in a Nov. 8 letter to Nvidia employees that did not name the woman involved. He resigned days later. Nvidia's board has sai
