Kabilio, a Spanish company specializing in the application of artificial intelligence to automate accounting and tax processes, has closed a €4 million pre-seed funding round, led by international venture capital funds Visionaries Club and Picus Capital. The round also includes €200,000 in public funding from ENISA, making it one of the largest pre-seed rounds ever raised in Spain.
Founded in 2024 by Jose Ojeda (formerly at McKinsey, Rocket Internet, and 011h) and Álex Valls (formerly at Social Point, Exoticca, and 011h), the startup has developed a platform that uses generative AI to help accounting firms and their clients modernize how they work together.
Kabilio was born from the conviction that artificial intelligence will transform the accounting advisory sector and from a commitment to accompany firms through this transition. This mission has already earned the trust of nearly 100 accounting firms using its platform, who are experiencing productivity gains of up to 50%.
“We’ve seen firsthand the challenge of attracting and retaining talent in accounting firms, where work tends to be concentrated in repetitive tasks and seasonal peaks. We also noticed some fear around adopting AI. That’s exactly why we created Kabilio — and closing this funding round gives us the boost we need to help firms reduce their teams’ workload and allow them to focus on delivering more value to their clients, which is where their true potential lies,” says Jose Ojeda, co-CEO and co-founder of Kabilio.
The new funding will enable the company to strengthen its team, develop new features and products, and accelerate its expansion in the Spanish market.
Robert Jäckle, Partner at Visionaries Club, highlights: “Kabilio brings AI to the heart of accounting firms not to replace accountants, but to make their work smarter and more valuable. They’re not chasing hype — they’re solving a real operational problem. We believe Kabilio can become the go-to platform for modern accounting in Europe.”
Similarly, Florian Reichert, Managing Director at Picus Capital, adds that the platform “will allow advisors to collaborate more efficiently with their clients by leveraging AI to automate tedious tasks and generate strategic value.”
Spain is home to around 65,000 accounting and tax advisory firms serving millions of SMEs and self-employed professionals. The current workflow is highly inefficient: clients must manually collect and send their information, which often arrives late or incomplete due to operational burdens. This problem worsens during quarterly peaks, when advisors must condense massive amounts of manual data entry and verification into just a few days.
Kabilio offers an AI-powered platform for accounting firms and their clients that facilitates the exchange of information and automates much of the processing — generating complete journal entries and connecting automatically with accounting software.
The platform currently integrates three main products:
Additionally, Kabilio is piloting Kabi, its AI agent, which will be officially presented at Accountex España 2025, the leading accounting and business management trade show in Spain. In its initial phase, Kabi will allow users to query and extract information from the platform using natural language, with future versions enabling more advanced actions.
“We’re living through a technological turning point comparable to the arrival of software in businesses two decades ago. Artificial intelligence won’t just optimize processes — it will redefine the nature of work and the relationship between accounting firms and their clients. Our goal is to build the infrastructure that makes this new paradigm possible,” says Álex Valls, co-CEO and co-founder of Kabilio.
