Swiss AI Air Purifier Aeris Raises $3.3M in Series A Funding

Aeris, a Swiss air purification systems manufacturer, has secured $3.3 million in Series A funding, led by Tencent co-founder Vic Lee and Tinder co-founder Justin Mateen.

Guess what? Aeris, the Swiss whiz kids behind those brainy air purifiers, just bagged a cool $3.3 million in Series A funding. And who’s backing them? A star-studded lineup including Vic Lee (yeah, the Tencent co-founder), Justin Mateen (Tinder’s matchmaker), plus PreAngel and Sarona Ventures, among others. Talk about a vote of confidence!

Now, here’s the kicker: these aren’t your grandma’s air purifiers. Aeris’s gadgets are like that one friend who remembers how you take your coffee—except they learn your air quality preferences and adapt on the fly. Stinky socks? Virus scare? They’ve got it covered, all while keeping that suction power strong enough to lift your spirits (and the bad air).

And if you’re in the U.S., getting your hands on one just got easier. Aeris has teamed up with Best Buy, meaning you can find their purifiers in over 600 stores nationwide. Not to mention, they’ve been cozying up with Target, QVC, and Amazon since 2019. So, no excuses for breathing subpar air.
