Parahelp

AI customer support agent for software companies, end-to-end ticket resolution
Parahelp is an AI customer-support agent built specifically for technical software companies, capable of resolving complex tickets end-to-end rather than just deflecting to humans.

In September 2025, Parahelp raised $21.2M total ($3.2M seed + $18M Series A) led by Jack Altman's Alt Capital, with Hidden Capital co-leading the seed.
