San Francisco-based startup Anything has raised $11 million in a Series A round led by Footwork, with participation from M13,  at a $100 million valuation. This latest funding brings Anything’s total capital to $19.5 million after raising $5.5 million in seed funding from Bessemer Venture Partners, Uncork Capital, and Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke. 

The company builds an AI-driven platform that lets users create fully functional mobile and web applications using only natural language prompts. Unlike competitors, Anything provides users with production-ready apps that include everything from backend infrastructure and authentication to payment systems, allowing them to build and monetise their applications quickly.

Dhruv Amin and Marcus Lowe founded Anything to address a common problem with AI coding tools: many users get stuck after creating prototypes and fail to launch apps that can generate real revenue. 

Marcus Lowe, co-founder, said: “We’re moving from coding assistants to autonomous development teams. You act like a product manager. Say what you want, and the agents build it. We’re not heading toward a world where everyone can code more easily, but one where almost no one needs to code.”

The company has grown rapidly, with more than 700,000 registered users and $2 million in annual recurring revenue just two weeks after launch. Examples include a Los Angeles real estate agent charging $100 per month for an AI training portal, a finance professional earning $34,000 from an AI-powered tool suite, and a film producer working on a children’s AI app targeting $20,000 monthly recurring revenue.

Anything also released a new product alongside the funding announcement called Anything Maxm, an autonomous AI engineer that automatically tests apps in real environments, detects bugs, and ships fixes without user intervention. This product addresses an issue in the industry known as the “2 a.m. doom loop,” where users become stuck on bugs that prevent app deployment. 

“Most AI coding tools make great prototypes, but fail on real launches. We’ve solved the fundamental problem that is the Achilles heel of every other ‘vibe coding’ tool: users get stuck at 2 a.m. trying to launch something and can’t figure out why their app won’t work. With our new Anything Max agent, we’re giving everyone a personal software engineer who actually tries your app, finds bugs, and fixes them autonomously. That’s how you help people cross the last mile,” added Dhruv Amin, co-founder. 

The company plans to continue scaling, aiming to shift the paradigm from coding assistants to autonomous development teams, where users act as product managers directing AI agents to build and scale software without ever needing to write code.
