Moonnox Raises $2M to Transform How Professional Services are Delivered
CHICAGO, IL — June 24, 2025 — Moonnox, the AI solution for delivering professional services — automating workflows, preserving project context and increasing consultant leverage — announced it has raised $2M in an oversubscribed round led by M25, with participation from Hyde Park Angels (HPA), Early Light Ventures and Service Provider Capital.
Professional services firms are facing increasing pressure to adopt AI tools that enhance delivery efficiency, capture institutional knowledge and reduce dependence on individual team members. While global consulting giants are pouring billions into integrating AI across their operations, most small to mid-sized consultancies remain limited — lacking the infrastructure and in-house expertise to develop their own solutions.
“Having spent my career building and scaling professional-services firms, I know the sleepless nights that come with the linear-growth rat race of running a consulting practice. We built Moonnox to turn that model on its head,” said Robert Ong, Co-Founder & CEO of Moonnox. “By developing a platform that acts as an AI operating system for firms, we empower consultants and practices to focus on the human expertise clients value most, while streamlining the repetitive project work that drags margins. In this Cambrian explosion of AI innovation, there has never been a better time to be a professional services firm, so long as you’re baking AI into the end-to-end fabric of your business model.”
Moonnox is purpose-built for the unique needs of consulting firms. Its AI agents are trained on each firm’s proprietary methodologies and designed to enhance key workflows — from scoping and project delivery to post-engagement handoff and continuity.
“Knowledge workers are going to have to get more efficient if they don’t want to get replaced,” said Victor Gutwein, Managing Partner at M25. “We were over the moon when we saw a solution that system integrators were using to dramatically speed up their internal processes, driving more revenue, reducing friction and costs. Combine that with a stellar team already trusted by the industry, and we had to grab this deal by the horns.”
This investment will accelerate Moonnox’s go-to-market efforts by adding key sales, marketing and customer success hires, while funding a product roadmap purpose built for professional services and systems integration teams. Planned enhancements include configurable playbooks for common consulting operations, native agentic connections to leading system of record platforms and data sources and AI assisted knowledge capture that converts past deliverables into firm wide best practices. Additional resources will expand secure deployment options for regulated industries and establish an internal AI safety and governance program, all aimed at elevating the future of work for services firms by freeing consultants to focus on high-value strategy and client relationships.
“It’s obvious that the world of professional services is going to be totally transformed by AI. I’m incredibly excited to help the next wave of AI enabled firms leverage agentic capabilities to deliver amazing outcomes for their employees and clients,” said David Cotten, Co-Founder & CTO of Moonnox.
