History

2021: Raising $1 million

In mid-September 2021, it became known about the investment of $1 million in Albato. The company raised funds from the co-founders of the Borzo courier service (formerly Dostavista) Alexander Shamis and Mikhail Alexandrovsky, as well as top managers of several large companies.

According to TAdviser in Albato, investor funds will go to exit and strengthen the startup's presence in new markets in Latin America, primarily in Brazil. By mid-September 2021, a team is being created that will be responsible for business development in this region. So far, the main markets for Albato are Russia, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and Belarus. The service is used by more than 1,500 companies.

Russian service for integration of IT systems Albato attracted $1 million investment

I believe that the maximum localization and adaptation of the service for each region will allow Albato to defeat global players in its countries of presence. It also impresses me that the team is looking for non-standard ways to scale quickly around the world, for example, using the integration designer, which allows anyone to add their service to Albato in minutes, "said Alexander Shamis.

The choice of Brazil as a starting point in Albato was explained by the active development of the local IT industry. There are many local applications and services in the country, and Albato intends to take advantage of one of its main advantages over competitors - the ability to quickly localize and integrate regional IT products.

Albato has already integrated a number of popular Brazilian applications - b2b platforms for communicating with customers Zenvia, LocaSMS, Mobizon, SMS Digital, a service for automating E-goi marketing mailings, a customer complaints service Hug.me and a financial and accounting system ContaAzul.
