# Restate lands $20M as the need for durable infrastructure increases with AI agents

**[TechCrunch](https://daily.dev/sources/tc)** · 3 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Berlin-based Restate raised a $20 million Series A led by Singular, with Redpoint Ventures and Capital One Ventures participating, to expand its durable workflow execution engine. Originally built in 2022 for resilient multi-step workflows, the platform has found strong demand from AI agent developers who need reproducible, crash-resistant execution. Restate has closed multiple six- and seven-figure customer deals, including with Replit, and is positioning itself as a leaner, faster alternative to Temporal, which recently raised $550 million at a $12.55 billion valuation. Restate built its own storage and replication layers rather than relying on an external database, and is also serving Fortune 500 clients including in finance. Funds will go toward hiring go-to-market staff, engineers, and expanding its Bay Area office.
