Freshly seeded Zoom.ai acquires SimplyInsight

Zoom.ai, which earlier this year closed a seed-stage financing, has acquired SimplyInsight, a San Francisco-based automated data analysis and visualization company. No financial terms were released. Zoom.ai, a Toronto-based developer of an automated virtual assistant for the workplace, said the integration of SimplyInsight's data-querying technology with its platform will support increased employees' efficiency. Zoom.ai's $2.1 million seed round was led by Extreme Venture Partners and joined by BDC Capital, Betaworks NYC, Good News Venture Partners, MaRS IAF and other investors.
