The Series B funding was led by investment fund Bewater

Woba Brazil flexible workspace startup has raised US $13,5 million to accelerate its growth and scale its SaaS-enabled office marketplace across Latin America. The Series B round was led by Bewater, with continued support from Kaszek Ventures and Valor Capital Group, who had invested in Woba’s Series A in 2021—back when it was known as BeerOrCoffee.

The round also included participation from Citrino Ventures (the family office of the Ermírio de Moraes family) and Endeavor, through its Catalyst and Scale-Up funds.

Woba’s Expansion and AI Strategy

CEO Roberta Vasconcellos

The Woba Brazil flexible workspace platform operates on a membership model and gives companies access to over 2,000 spaces across more than 370 cities. CEO Roberta Vasconcellos said the new funds will help expand both the supply side (real estate partners) and demand side (corporate clients), while advancing Woba’s use of artificial intelligence.

We’re expanding into new cities, adding new asset types, and investing in AI to scale how we match users to workspaces,” she explained.

The company will also focus on onboarding real estate investment trusts (FIIs) and corporate landlords to help monetize vacant or underused inventory.

Woba’s Office Network Corporate Clients and Revenue Growth

Since its founding in 2017 by Roberta and Pedro Vasconcellos, Woba has transitioned from a coworking aggregator into a full-fledged flexible workspace platform. Today, 70% of its revenue comes from large enterprises.

Its corporate client base includes Cielo, which uses Woba to manage 108 distributed office spaces. Other customers include XPItaúC6 BankMercado Livre, and Stellantis.
According to LatamList, additional users include iFoodStoneMapfre, and Prudential, reinforcing Woba’s reach across financial services, tech, and insurance.

The company reported 135% year-over-year revenue growth and aims to sustain that trajectory through 2025.

Flexible Workspace Meets SaaS Model

Woba Brazil flexible workspace users benefit from a hybrid model: companies pay monthly SaaS fees and allocate creditsthat employees can use to book coworking spaces, private rooms, meeting areas, and event venues.

Woba handles centralized billing and distributes revenue shares to partner operators—similar to models seen in Wellhub (formerly Gympass), but designed specifically for office infrastructure.
