Workers Delos Raises €10M for 'AI Employees' With Their Own Email and Phone
JafarNajafov · x · 2026-09-17
French startup Workers Delos raised €10M (Bpifrance, c4ventures, foundersfuture) to build autonomous 'AI employees' rather than AI tools. Its Delos Workers — 15 specialized profiles spanning marketing, dev, design, HR, finance and support — each get their own personality, memory, email address, phone number and Google/Microsoft account, and plug into Slack, Teams and 3,000+ tools to execute tasks end to end proactively, 24/7.
Key facts:
- Over 10,000 AI Workers deployed, in production at 300+ companies including TotalEnergies and ICADE
- RAG-based access to company data, persistent memory, sub-5-minute hiring setup
- GDPR-compliant, SOC 2 certified, end-to-end encryption, isolated hosting, data never used for training
The sharpest product observation: giving an AI its own email and phone number is what turns it from 'another AI tool' into a teammate that shows up in your company like a real colleague.
