The French-based company will expand its orchestration platform, develop new capabilities, enhance its cloud offering, and strengthen its presence in international markets while continuing to invest in its open-source ecosystem.
Kestra has raised $25 million in a Series A funding round led by RTP Global, with continued participation from Alven, ISAI, and Axeleo. The round brings the company’s total funding to $36 million.
Kestra develops an open-source orchestration platform designed to unify data pipelines, AI workflows, infrastructure automation, and business processes within a single control plane. As enterprise systems become increasingly distributed across cloud, on-premise environments, and AI-driven applications, organisations often rely on fragmented tools that are not built for current levels of complexity.
The company addresses this challenge with a unified orchestration layer that enables teams to manage workflows across systems in a consistent and scalable way. Its platform is designed to support hybrid and secure environments, with an extensible architecture supported by a broad plugin ecosystem.
Most enterprise software companies try to sell top-down and hope developers adopt. We took a different approach, focusing on building a product that engineers choose because it works in production. That foundation continues to guide how we develop the platform,
said Emmanuel Darras, CEO and co-founder of Kestra.
The newly raised capital will support the development of Kestra 2.0, including enhancements to its distributed execution capabilities and real-time observability features.
The company also plans to expand its cloud offering, strengthen its presence in North America and Europe, and continue investing in its open-source ecosystem.
