How they work
We're looking for startups that use artificial intelligence to solve real business problems, not simply tossing in a chatbot or basic machine learning into an app and calling it AI. We have a unique model that allows us visibility into over 27 industries to determine if a solution actually makes money, saves money, or improves customer experiences. We then use that same model to help support our portfolio post-investment. We're all successful entrepreneurs and hope to leverage that experience as appropriate for our portfolio companies.
