Viktor was founded in 2023 by former Meta engineers Fryderyk Wiatrowski and Peter Albert, with operations split between Warsaw, Poland and Munich, Germany. The company's core idea is to move beyond chat-style AI assistants that merely give advice and instead deliver an AI 'coworker' that does the actual work and hands back finished output. Viktor lives where teams already operate, inside Slack and Microsoft Teams, so adopting it feels like adding a new team member rather than learning new software.
Viktor connects to thousands of business tools, with the company citing more than 3,000 integrations across systems like Stripe, Notion and Google Ads. From a simple message, it can pull data from multiple sources, build dashboards and reports, write and submit code or pull requests, conduct customer and market research, generate leads and automate recurring workflows. The marketing positioning is sharp: where ChatGPT tells you how to audit your ad spend, Viktor audits it and hands you the PDF.
This outcome orientation has resonated quickly. The company reported reaching a 12.9 million euro revenue run rate within ten weeks of launch and claims more than 20,000 workspaces use the product, with customers reporting savings of ten or more hours per week. Viktor emphasizes enterprise-readiness, including SOC 2 compliance and rapid two-minute setup directly from Slack or Teams.
In May 2026 Viktor raised a 75 million dollar (64.7 million euro) Series A led by Accel, with participation from Bek Ventures, Kaya VC, Inovo VC and Tenacity Capital, plus a striking roster of operator angels including Slack co-founders Stewart Butterfield and Cal Henderson, Vercel's Guillermo Rauch and Synthesia's Victor Riparbelli. Backed by elite investors and growing fast, Viktor is one of the most talked-about agentic-AI startups to emerge from Central Europe.
