Overview
Rocketlane is a professional services automation (PSA) platform built around customer onboarding and implementation delivery. It combines project management, a client-facing portal, time tracking, resource management and financial reporting in one system, aimed at services teams at SaaS, fintech, and IT/consulting companies who need to get customers live faster while keeping delivery profitable. The company was founded in 2020 by CEO Srikrishnan Ganesan and has raised more than $100M across seed, Series A, B and C rounds, most recently a $60M Series C led by Insight Partners in March 2026; Atlassian Ventures has also made a strategic investment.
The product spans project delivery (AI-generated project plans from statements of work, templates, task automation and governance rules), a branded customer portal for shared visibility with clients, time tracking, and resource management for staffing and utilization. A Premium/Enterprise-tier financial management layer adds budgeting, invoicing and revenue recognition tied to delivery data. In 2026 Rocketlane introduced Nitro, a set of AI agents layered on top of the core PSA that automate resourcing operations, financial governance, and value-delivery work such as data migration and configuration validation, plus customer-signal detection that surfaces account risk from conversations and delivery activity.
Rocketlane reports 750+ customers globally, including 17 Forbes Cloud 100 companies, with named customers spanning Intercom, Coursera, Gong, nCino, Glean, Fivetran, LivePerson, OpenGov and Zenoti. It integrates with Salesforce and HubSpot for CRM-triggered project creation, Slack and Jira for team collaboration, Google/Outlook Calendar for timesheet automation, and Zapier and Workato for broader connectivity; no direct ERP connector is documented.
