Certifyde Raises $2M in Seed Funding

The company plans to use the funds to expand sales and marketing, accelerate product development, and strengthen its infrastructure to support rapid growth.

According to McKinsey & Company, 88% of organizations are using AI, but most have not scaled it, and only 39% see real business impact. Despite significant investment, AI often fails to deliver results because companies lack coordination and the skills needed to deploy it effectively. Certifyde is designed to solve this problem.

Teams can simply install the Productivity Companion, Certifyde’s browser extension, and start getting personalized AI guidance right away no migration needed. It works with existing tools like Salesforce, Slack and Google, fitting into daily workflows without disruption, with users reporting 40–70% productivity gains.

The tool supports employees in real-time by giving role-specific guidance, building consistent AI usage habits offering verified AI skill credentials, and helping companies track improvement across teams.

Certifyde also offers Academy, a product that gives companies one place to manage training and compliance, including the creation of their own courses and certification programs.

The company is gaining traction across both government and enterprise sectors, working with organizations such as the NYC Department of Transportation and national labs. It is an approved provider with the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System (NMLS). From large enterprises to public programs serving millions, Certifyde is becoming a single platform for licensing, compliance, and AI adoption at scale.

Along with the funding news, Certifyde has appointed Dan Burns as Chief Revenue Officer. He has worked with companies like Aescape and Bird and advised startups, helping new technologies grow through partnerships and market expansion. His experience makes him well-suited to lead Certifyde’s growth.

"Unlike other workplace tools, Certifyde's goal isn't to replace people, but to empower them. By building AI adoption into the flow of real work, we're giving individuals and teams the skills to focus on problem-solving, creativity, and impact," said Skylar Hauswirth, CEO of Certifyde.

"Honey helped millions of people save money at the point of purchase," said George Ruan, co-founder of Honey, the popular browser extension acquired by PayPal, and investor in Certifyde. "Certifyde brings that same in-workflow intelligence to the modern workforce, training thousands of healthcare professionals in real time, and ultimately helping improve outcomes for millions of lives."
