Yoodli, an AI-powered experiential learning platform, has raised $40 million in its Series B funding round led by WestBridge Capital with participation from Neotribe and Madrona.
The fresh funds raised will be used to accelerate its investment in AI coaching, analytics, and personalization while expanding its reach across enterprise learning, GTM enablement, and professional development. The company plans to grow its product, AI research, and customer success teams as it continues to scale globally.
This brings the company’s total funding to nearly $60 million. The Series B follows a Series A completed in May 2025.
Founded in 2021 by Varun Puri and Esha Joshi, Yoodli is an AI-powered experiential learning platform that helps people practice and improve communication skills through personalized AI roleplays, adaptive coaching, and real-time feedback.
The company’s platform uses AI to simulate real-world scenarios, from sales calls and leadership coaching to interviews and feedback sessions, giving users instant, personalized feedback they can practice privately and repeatedly.
Yoodli delivers experiential learning by giving people a place to rehearse high-stakes conversations and receive personalized, actionable feedback that drives real improvement.
Trusted by leading enterprises including Google, Snowflake, RingCentral, Databricks, Sandler Sales, and others, Yoodli enables learners to build confidence, measure progress, and perform when it matters most.
Varun Puri, Co-Founder and CEO of Yoodli, said, “In a world where so much is being automated by AI, Yoodli is helping people strengthen what makes them uniquely human. Communication is the skill that separates top performers, and Yoodli helps people sharpen that edge through practice.”
“This round helps us scale our team and serve more enterprises on a true end-to-end experiential learning platform. We’re reducing the time it takes to acquire real skills, ensuring employees are ready for game time, and saving organizations countless hours lost to passive coaching. The future of learning isn’t about consuming content—it’s about adaptive, real-world practice that drives behavioral change,” he adds.
Esha Joshi, Co-Founder and Chief Customer Officer of Yoodli, said, “Learning sticks when it feels real. Even elite athletes don’t improve by watching film alone—they watch, analyze, and then practice relentlessly. Yoodli is where professionals get that practice and real-time feedback.”
Manthan Shah, Principal at WestBridge Capital, said, “We see Yoodli defining a new category of AI-native learning tools for the enterprise, as companies today seek scalable, AI-driven solutions to train and upskill their workforces. The Yoodli team has built a platform that brings a high level of precision and scalability to skill development, and we’re excited to partner with them as they scale.”
