Lead: Andreessen Horowitz
Overview
Toma builds AI voice agents that handle inbound phone calls for auto dealerships — service appointment scheduling, parts orders, sales inquiries, and status updates. In June 2025, Andreessen Horowitz led a $17M Series A with Y Combinator and Flex Capital participating. Toma reports deployment at more than 100 dealerships processing real repair-order and parts workflows, not demo lines. The company targets a industry where missed calls directly convert to lost service revenue and poor customer satisfaction scores.
Why Toma is interesting
Dealerships miss thousands of inbound calls — a16z-led $17M Series A puts agents live at 100+ stores handling real RO workflows.

- Service departments capturing after-hours appointment bookings
