Jonathan Anguelov is one of four people who started Aircall in Paris in 2014, with Olivier Pailhes, Pierre-Baptiste Bechu and Xavier Durand.
Their idea was a phone system set up from a browser in minutes, sold by subscription at roughly €30 to €50 a month. In 2017 the company moved to New York, and revenue tripled after the push into the US market.
Aircall raised $29 million in 2018 and $65 million in May 2020. A $120 million round led by Goldman Sachs in June 2021 made it the 16th French unicorn.
Annual recurring revenue passed $100 million in 2022. In 2026 the company acquired Vogent in May and Piper AI in June as it moved toward AI voice agents.
