Paris-based Forest Admin picks up $7 million Series A to expand its back office developer tool

Forest Admin, the French startup creating back-of-house developer tools, has raised a $7 million Series A led by Notion Capital and Runa Capital.

Forest has built a universal admin interface to manage customer data and business operations. By plugging the Forest API into their application, the customer is delivered an off-the-shelf admin panel that requires no front-end development. There’s no need to develop in-house admin tools, which allows companies to focus on their customer-facing product, even as they scale.

The Paris-based company was founded in 2017 by Sandro Munda (CEO), Quentin Nickmans, and Thibaud Elziere. It raised $3.8 million in early 2018. The Series A will go toward further product development and growing the team.
