7Learnings secured €10 million in Series B funding to advance its predictive pricing and retail optimization technology, and to scale in North America and beyond.
The round was led by Acton Capital, renowned for its investments in companies such as Etsy, mytheresa, Clio, and SoSafe, with the continued backing from High-Tech Gründerfonds (HTGF).
Berlin, Germany, May 7, 2025 – 7Learnings, the leading provider of AI-powered retail optimization technology, today announced the successful close of its Series B funding round, securing over €10 million in new investment. The funding round was led by Acton Capital, one of Europe’s leading venture capital funds with a focus on technology start-ups. The existing investor High-Tech Gründerfonds also participated in the round, renewing their commitment. The funding will accelerate 7Learnings’ international expansion, with a strategic focus on entering the North American market.
Unlike many high-growth tech startups, 7Learnings has reached profitability ahead of its Series B round, underscoring the strength and scalability of its business model. This new investment is earmarked entirely for growth, allowing the company to capitalize on its momentum and rapidly extend its global footprint.
“We’ve built a profitable business by delivering measurable results for our customers. Amidst trade uncertainties, persistent inflation, and global supply chain challenges, better decision intelligence has become business-critical for brands and e-commerce merchants. This investment allows us to bring our technology to even more retailers worldwide, with North America as our next major focus.” --Felix Hoffmann, CEO and Co-Founder of 7Learnings.
7Learnings has emerged as a clear market leader in AI-driven pricing, trusted by leading global retailers and validated through hundreds of A/B tests. The company’s Retail AI platform goes beyond dynamic pricing, offering predictive capabilities that align marketing campaigns with pricing strategies and optimize product orders, unlocking full-margin potential across the value chain.
“With the continued pressure from inflation and shifting consumer behavior, as well as the renewed impact of U.S. tariffs on our sourcing and pricing strategy, 7Learnings has been instrumental in helping us navigate these challenges. Its AI-powered pricing and retail optimization tools allow us to adapt quickly, make smarter pricing decisions, and protect our margins without compromising on brand integrity or customer experience,” says Timo Bethlehem, Managing Director at meinemarkenmode.de. The fashion retailer has been working with 7Learnings for 5 years, achieving a 13% revenue increaseby leveraging predictive pricing.
With its unique ability to synchronize pricing, marketing, and ordering decisions through machine learning, 7Learnings empowers retailers to make smarter, faster, and more profitable decisions at scale.
“Pricing is one of the most powerful levers for driving profitability in e-commerce. What impressed us about 7Learnings is their state-of-the-art proprietary AI technology, which consistently outperforms the competition. They've already established themselves as market leader in Germany, and we’re excited to support their international expansion,” --Sebastian Wossagk, managing partner at Acton Capital.

“At a time when AI has seemingly infused any technology-driven business, it is more important than ever to look at its ROI. The AI applications provided by 7Learnings deliver a clear and tangible effect on their customers' bottom line. We have been impressed with the leadership’s vision and drive, and are happy to double down on our investment,” adds Martin Möllmann, Principal at HTGF.
