SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AI in revenue cycle management has become top of mind across the healthcare industry, but when it comes to the dental market, dentists are lacking the modern tools used by their medical counterparts. That's the problem that AI-powered dental RCM platform, Wisdom, is on a mission to solve. The company announced today the successful completion of its $21M Series A capital raise led by Permanent Capital Ventures (PCV), a venture capital firm that partners with founders to build go-to-market engines for enterprise scale. Aquiline, a private investment firm specializing in financial services and technology, joined the round, alongside existing investor and Co-Founder, Juxtapose, a leading creation-oriented investment firm. Juxtapose followed their recent $7M Seed investment, reaffirming the firm's commitment to Wisdom's continued growth and innovation. This funding brings Wisdom's total capital raised to $28M since its founding in 2023.
The opportunity to use technology to help dentists build and run their businesses more effectively is immense.

The overwhelming majority of independent practices and small dental groups in America struggle with the administrative burden of running a profitable business, leaving over $20 billion of earned revenue uncollected despite spending billions of dollars on salaries for in-house revenue management. Wisdom, which has already collected hundreds of millions of dollars for its clients and saved them up to 50% of collection costs, takes a highly differentiated approach to administrative workflows by bringing AI agents and human experts together to maximize revenue collections, predictability, transparency and patient satisfaction, thereby freeing dentists and their staff to focus on delivering outstanding patient care.
Since its inception, Wisdom has rapidly expanded by combining advanced, proprietary AI-driven technology with US-based billing experts. This unique approach has propelled Wisdom to achieve exceptional client satisfaction, underscored by a consistently high Net Promoter Score of 73 and strong organic growth. Over 50% of Wisdom's signed deals still come through referrals. Wisdom was awarded Top Dental Billing Company by Healthcare Business Review earlier this year and was named a 2025 Dental Innovator Award winner by DentalIQ for its AI-assisted dental billing service.
Wisdom is led by CEO Stoyan Kenderov, an accomplished technologist, product leader and executive with over 25 years of success building new products and transforming organizations into customer-obsessed teams that drive growth and profitability, most recently as COO of business payments platform Plastiq. Prior to his time at Plastiq, Stoyan held senior leadership roles at LendingClub, Intuit, Quicken, and many other international technology companies. Stoyan is joined by Wisdom Co-Founder and Chief Dental Billing Officer Ashley Bond, who previously founded and led the award-winning nationwide billing service, Bond Dental Billing.
'We are thrilled to partner with PCV and Aquiline as we continue our mission to transform dental billing and revenue management,' said Kenderov. 'Their proactive approach and expertise in building scalable enterprises align perfectly with our vision to significantly enhance financial outcomes and operational efficiency for dental practices.'
PCV's investment in Wisdom reflects the firm's strategy of supporting innovative startups poised for transformational growth. 'Wisdom has created an impressive track record by uniquely integrating AI technologies with deep industry expertise,' said Mike Gamson, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Permanent Capital Ventures. 'We see immense potential in their ability to scale and redefine revenue management solutions in the dental sector and beyond.'
Aquiline has a history of building scaled revenue cycle management businesses, and this investment in Wisdom marks the firm's second investment supporting the dental industry. 'While we continue to see significant innovation across dental, the market is filled with point solutions and generally lacks modern, end-to-end platforms, especially across the rev cycle process,' said Dante La Ruffa, Partner at Aquiline. 'We believe that Stoyan and his team are reimagining the future of dentistry, starting with the key pain points that have historically inhibited dentists from maximizing their time with patients.'
This funding will enable Wisdom to further enhance its technology platform, accelerate market expansion, and continue building out its exceptional team to better serve dental offices of all sizes - from private practices to multi-location dental groups across the country.
'The opportunity to use technology to help dentists build and run their businesses more effectively is immense. Stoyan and his team have moved quickly but thoughtfully to build a solution which really moves the needle for dentists while preserving the value of human expertise,' said Andy Stein, Partner at Juxtapose.
