Qorelo Raises $3.5M to Build the Intelligence Layer for SAP Transformation

Today we’re announcing that Qorelo has raised $3.5M in seed funding to automate one of the hardest problems in enterprise software: the delivery of large-scale SAP transformations.

The round was co-led by HPI Ventures and Caesar Ventures, with participation from adesso Ventures, Antler, 10x Founders, and Angel Invest. It closed just five months after the company was founded.

The problem we’re solving

Almost every large enterprise in the world runs on SAP. Ninety percent of the Fortune 500 rely on it, and a significant share of global commerce touches an SAP system at some point. Right now, tens of thousands of these companies are racing to modernise onto S/4HANA before SAP’s 2027 deadline.

These are some of the hardest and most expensive projects a company will ever run. The majority go over budget, over schedule, or both. Each migration takes between 18 and 36 months, and in the most extreme cases, failed transformations have cost large corporations hundreds of millions before being abandoned.

The bottleneck isn’t ambition or talent. It’s capacity. The functional delivery work behind every transformation, the discovery workshops, the scoping, the configuration, the thousands of decisions that shape the new system, is slow, manual, and dependent on a pool of expert consultants that simply cannot scale to meet demand. And when a project ends, most of that hard-won knowledge walks out the door with the people who built it.

What Qorelo does

Qorelo is the AI engine for SAP delivery, built natively on the SAP Activate methodology and aligned to clean core principles. We automate the functional delivery workstream across the transformation lifecycle and turn it into a permanent system of record.

In discovery, Qorelo captures client processes and requirements, analyses legacy systems, facilitates workshops, and maps to standard while keeping everything traceable. In delivery, it turns workshop transcripts into structured deliverables, configuration guides, WRICEF objects, and cutover artifacts in hours instead of weeks. As systems evolve, it flags modernisation opportunities and integrates new SAP capabilities as they arrive.

The result is transformations that move up to 45% faster, with every decision traceable, and significantly more margin retained on each engagement. Just as importantly, Qorelo doesn’t replace consultants or impose a generic methodology. It learns each team’s playbooks, templates, and IP, helping junior consultants deliver at senior quality while keeping people firmly in control.

One-time projects become continuous optimisation relationships, and enterprise data stays structured and ready for whatever comes next.

What our investors say

“Modernising the enterprise tech stack is one of the hardest problems on any CIO’s desk. These are multi-year programs where most of the risk and cost sits in slow, manual, expert-dependent work. Qorelo is the AI companion that carries enterprises and their consultants through it — turning fragmented discovery and scoping into structured, traceable progress, while keeping people in control.”
— Jens Schmidt-Sceery, Partner at HPI Ventures

“Qorelo tackles the biggest bottleneck in SAP transformations: the manual, consultant-dependent scoping phase where most projects derail. With enterprises racing against SAP’s 2027 deadline and consulting capacity structurally undersupplied, AI augmentation is no longer optional. We believe Qorelo is positioned to become the intelligence layer for enterprise ERP transformations.”
— Carolin Gabor, Partner at Caesar Ventures

What’s next

This funding lets us move even faster: scaling the platform, deepening our product, and bringing on the best engineering and SAP talent in Europe.

The market is only getting bigger as the 2027 deadline approaches, and we’re building for the long term—a future where AI sits within and on top of enterprise transformation, supporting the companies and consultancies that run the global economy.
