Hivemeld and Vela Announce Strategic Merger to Bring AI to Every Business Unit

Vela CRM becomes Hivemeld GTM, combining a complete customer platform with Hivemeld's agentic workforce in a single company and a single product.

Boston, MA, October 8, 2026 — Hivemeld, the agentic workforce platform for modern business, today announced a strategic merger with Vela, the AI-powered customer relationship platform. Under the merger, Vela becomes Hivemeld GTM, the go-to-market line of the Hivemeld platform, uniting Vela's CRM depth — pipeline, contacts, sequences, campaigns, analytics, and forecasting — with Hivemeld's agentic workforce.

The merger combines the two products into one company, one platform, and one login, with all future development landing in Hivemeld.

One platform: the system of record meets the workforce

The rationale is that AI delivers its real leverage inside the tools teams already use — not in a side product nobody opens. Vela brings the system of record: the pipeline reviews, customer histories, campaigns, and forecasts where go-to-market teams live every day. Hivemeld brings the workforce: AI agents that join any team, carry institutional memory, and move real work forward — governed by guardrails, approval policies, and metering.

Together, they close the loop: the CRM tells the agents what matters, and the agents move the work forward — pipeline follow-up, campaign operations, usage reconciliation, code review, whatever the team runs on. AI at the fingertips of every business unit, in the flow of work.

The company framed it as a product decision rather than a partnership: two products, two logins, two bills is how AI dies in the enterprise. One platform means the agents see what the business sees — that is when AI stops being a demo and starts being headcount.

Vela was built to be the CRM its users deserved — fast, complete, and AI-native from day one. Inside Hivemeld it becomes something bigger: the front door to an AI workforce. Every Vela user wakes up with leverage they didn't have yesterday, and nothing they've built goes away.

What Vela customers gain

Vela users gain access to Hivemeld's agentic workforce — AI agents for any team — plus approval policies and guardrails and unified billing and identity. Data, pipelines, sequences, and history carry over to Hivemeld accounts through a guided migration. The Vela web address will continue to work, redirecting automatically to its new home, and support continues through the same channels during the transition.

Hivemeld users, in turn, gain a complete, battle-tested CRM as a native line of the platform rather than a third-party integration — pipeline through close, sequences through renewal, in the same shell as their agents.
