Unguess, a Milan, Italy-based crowdtesting company, raised over €10M in funding.
The round was led by Fondo Italiano d’Investimento with participation from P101, with its two funds Programma 103 and ITA500, managed on behalf of Azimut, Italian Angels for Growth (IAG), Club degli Investitori and Club Italia Investimenti 2.
The company intends to use the funds to consolidate its position in the crowdtesting sector in the Italian market, to strengthen the expansion in other strategic European countries, and support the development of the platform, with a view to integrating it with new solutions, content and services.
Founded in 2015 as AppQuality within the “Mobile Lab” research center of the Politecnico di Milano by Edoardo Vannutelli, Filippo Maria Renga and Luca Manara, who is now the CEO of the startup, Unguess is able to provide relevant tests, insights, and feedback from real people who are engaged by using a wide variety of digital devices and interfaces.
Over time, the range of services offered to businesses has expanded to include different types of tests on any digital product or physical device, services and solutions for the optimisation of user and customer experience (UNGUESS Experience), for the verification of the presence of functional defects and bugs in software quality (UNGUESS Quality), and finally to embrace the cyber security sector with a solution based on a crowd of 500 certified Italian Ethical Hackers (UNGUESS Security).
The company employs more than 80 professionals, and counts more than 300 clients in its portfolio, from all sectors, both Italian and international, including companies of the calibre of Pirelli, Costa Crociere, Sky Italia, ING, Enel, Lottomatica, Intesa Sanpaolo, and Axa.
