Workflow automation firm Alkymi has raised $21 million in Series A funding, bringing its total financing to $26 million. 

The round was led by Intel Capital with participation from existing investors Canaan, Work-Bench and SimCorp.

The company will use the funding to expand its hiring in product development and go-to-market and to scale its offerings. In the past year, Alkymi has handled 45 million data actions on its platform.
