PromptPath Raises $12 Million Series A Led by FM Capital and Armory Square Ventures

PromptPath, an AI-enabled conversation assist platform for automotive dealerships, raised $12 million in Series A funding led by FM Capital and Armory Square Ventures, with participation from Automotive Ventures, Holman Ventures and other automotive dealers and dealer groups. PR Newswire published the announcement on November 10, 2026.

PromptPath's Series A and Board Addition

PromptPath said the funding will expand its end-to-end voice AI platform across phones, F&I and service. The company also announced that Keith Jezek, a longtime automotive technology executive, joined its board of directors.

Amit Maheshwari, CEO of PromptPath, said dealers have often lacked proven tools for real-time coaching insights and process visibility. "This support from premier automotive VCs and dealer family offices allows us to harness AI responsibly to deliver actionable sales and service conversation and coaching insights to more dealerships and partners, at every customer touchpoint, and advance our product roadmap," Maheshwari said.

Somak Chattopadhyay, Managing Partner at Armory Square Ventures and a PromptPath board director, said the firm was drawn to PromptPath's platform vision, proven benefits with multiple customer groups in a mega-vertical, and an experienced team. Zack Freed, Managing Director at FM Capital and a PromptPath board director, said Jezek's performance-driven experience and deep automotive industry expertise will be especially important as PromptPath continues to grow.

Jezek formerly served as CEO of Open Lending and was previously co-founder and CEO of vAuto, and led Cox Automotive's Retail & Media Solutions division as President. "PromptPath makes that information useful to dealerships while they're still talking with customers," Jezek said.
