Eclipse leads $31M Series A for Ever, an AI-native EV marketplace

Ever, a startup positioning itself as the first AI-native, full-stack marketplace for electric vehicles, has raised $31 million in a Series A round led by Eclipse. Ibex Investors, Lifeline Ventures and JIMCO, the investment arm of Saudi Arabia's Jameel family, co-invested. The company operates both an online marketplace and physical locations for buying and selling used EVs. Ever's platform uses an AI-powered orchestration system that handles hundreds of workflows behind each transaction, from appraisals to titling. CEO Lasse-Mathias Nyberg claims this approach makes the sales team two to three times more productive than traditional retailers. Founded in 2022, Ever currently focuses exclusively on electric vehicles, though it hasn't ruled out expanding to combustion vehicles. Eclipse partner Jiten Behl, who spent eight years at Rivian, led the investment.
