Sigma Secures $80M Series E, Valued at $3B, to Revolutionize Enterprise AI with Data-Driven Governance
May 18, 2026
Sigma is viewed by investors as a crucial infrastructure layer for enterprise AI, offering a warehouse-native architecture and governance-focused approach that unifies data access, governance, and AI workflows across cloud ecosystems.
The cloud-native analytics platform queries live data in data warehouses like Snowflake, Databricks, and BigQuery through a spreadsheet-like interface, preserving governance and security without duplicating data, which sets it apart from traditional BI tools.
Sigma enables building AI apps, running analytics, and launching AI workflows directly where enterprise data resides, emphasizing security, governance, and rapid development.

As of April 2026, Sigma surpassed $200 million in annual recurring revenue and serves over 2,000 global customers, with Fortune 10 firms and other leading AI-driven companies among its users; the year saw strong growth with more than 1.1 million new active users.
