Company profile
researched Sep 2026Immigify Inc is an immigration technology company that operates an AI-powered platform serving two audiences: immigrants navigating the U.S. immigration system and the professionals who support them, including attorneys, paralegals and immigration consultants. For immigrants, the platform offers an online community, step-by-step guidance and resources, a question-and-answer forum, and discovery of verified consultants. For practitioners, it provides client lead generation, client management, case, document and timeline tracking, and AI-supported workflow automation, delivered through a CRM-style dashboard accessible at account.immigify.com.
The company also packages its offering into segments described as Immigify for Individuals, Immigify for Business (aimed at healthcare providers, legal professionals, small-to-medium enterprises and other professional services firms) and Immigify for Education, with registration paths for students and businesses. Its terms of service describe the company as providing technology-driven tools, resources and structured petition support for employment-based U.S. immigration matters, including secure platforms for case management and document exchange and coordination of timelines and documentation; the company states it does not provide guarantees of USCIS outcomes. Following its 2026 funding round, Immigify has stated plans to extend AI-driven support beyond immigration into healthcare, insurance, employment, education and other services, with a stated goal of deploying personalized AI agents for immigrants in the United States.
Founding story
The company was founded by a Nigerian team and is led by co-founder and CEO Emma Olorunsheyi and co-founder and CTO Ayodeji Niyi-Adesola (also referred to as Ayodeji Adesola), with Diana Melendez serving as Chief Operating Officer. Leadership has described the U.S. immigration process as deliberately complex and the company as an attempt to streamline it for immigrants, employers and practitioners.
Business model
Immigify operates a software platform serving both individual immigrants and immigration professionals. Clients pay fees for services in advance of work beginning, and the company's terms state that all fees are non-refundable and exclude government filing fees, translations, courier charges and other third-party expenses. Consultants and firms use the platform to obtain client leads and manage cases, while individuals access community, guidance and consultant discovery.
Fee-based services paid in full before work begins, per the company's terms and conditions; government filing fees and third-party costs are billed separately and are not included in service fees.
Traction
The company reports more than 5,000 people onboarded into its online immigrant community as of July 2026, and closed a pre-seed round of over $1 million in the same month.
Latest developments
In July 2026 Immigify announced a pre-seed round of more than $1 million led by Gener8tor with participation from M25, Invest Nebraska, Nelnet and NMotion. Proceeds are earmarked for platform development, expanded AI capabilities, partnerships with immigration professionals and employers, and extension of AI-driven support into healthcare, insurance, employment and education.

Immigify positions itself as building a large-scale immigration support platform in the United States, citing a market of more than 50 million immigrants (Pew Research Center figure of about 53.3 million cited in coverage). It is an African-founded, U.S.-based company that participated in the Techstars Workforce Development Accelerator (2025 class).
The company combines a peer community for immigrants with practitioner-facing case management and AI automation in a single platform, and emphasizes petition-fit guidance and faster petition preparation for attorneys, paralegals and consultants.
Technology
An AI-powered workflow and case management platform combining a secure document exchange and CRM dashboard for practitioners with automated guidance for immigrants. The company applies AI to workflow automation and legal process management rather than general content generation, and says petitions are submitted up to 10 times faster using its software. Its stated roadmap includes personalized AI agents guiding users through immigration and adjacent systems such as healthcare, insurance, employment and education.
Go-to-market
Self-serve sign-up flows on the website for immigrants, consultants, students and businesses, supported by community growth and partnerships with immigration professionals and employers. The company has also run community and ecosystem programs, including multiple editions of the Uplift Hackathon for emerging African technology startups and a Global Leadership Roundtable.
Immigrants and prospective immigrants to the United States, including skilled professionals and international students; immigration attorneys, paralegals and consultants; and employers and human resource teams. The business offering targets healthcare providers, legal professionals, small-to-medium enterprises and other professional services firms, alongside an education-focused offering.

History
Immigify began as a tool to help individuals navigate the U.S. immigration system and participated in the Techstars Workforce Development Accelerator as part of the Techstars 2025 class. After the program it expanded into an AI-powered platform for immigration professionals alongside a nationwide community for immigrants, and in July 2026 announced a pre-seed round of more than $1 million to broaden its services.
Risks & controversies
The company's terms state that all fees are non-refundable under any circumstances, including petition withdrawal, USCIS denial or early termination, and that it cannot guarantee petition approval or processing times. Liability is capped at amounts paid for the services in question. Operating in employment-based U.S. immigration exposes the business to regulatory and agency discretion outside its control.
