Natural builds payment infrastructure that lets autonomous AI agents execute financial actions such as paying vendors, collecting payments, and transacting with other agents or humans. The startup redesigns financial rails to support agent-initiated transactions that traditional systems (credit cards, ACH) were not built for. Founded in 2025 by Kahlil Lalji with co-founders including Eric Wang and Walt Leung, Natural has operated in beta while making core architectural decisions. The company plans to support both traditional bank payments and USD-backed stablecoins as part of its architecture. Natural has attracted senior talent from fintech firms like Stripe, Ramp, and Square to accelerate product development. With $40 million in total funding after the Series A, the company is positioning itself to compete with incumbents such as Stripe and emerging rivals in the agentic payments space.

Adaptive Computer builds a no-code web-app platform called ac1 (currently in alpha) that generates complete JavaScript-based apps from simple text prompts. Its engine automatically provisions backend infrastructure such as databases, user authentication, file management, payments (via Stripe), scheduled tasks, and AI features like image generation, speech synthesis, content analysis, and web search. The product targets true non-programmers, emphasizing removal of developer-facing requirements like API keys and other technical configuration. Adaptive positions its platform as more of an "operating system" of interoperable apps rather than single isolated web apps, allowing apps users build to share files and data. The company offers three subscription tiers: a limited free version, a $20/month tier, and a $100/month Creator/Pro plan. Adaptive says the platform can create fully functional sharable websites (not prototypes) that include features such as sorting, aggregations, and user access without exposing the creator's personal data. The startup was founded by repeat founder Dennis Xu (who left Mem in 2023) and Mike Soylu and aims to let everyday people build apps to improve their own lives.

Immi develops plant-based instant ramen that is lower in carbohydrates and higher in protein than traditional instant noodles, initially launching three flavors: Spicy “Beef,” Tom Yum “Shrimp,” and Black Garlic “Chicken.” The company has seen strong direct-to-consumer demand, grew revenue over six times year‑over‑year, and has sold out seven times since 2021. Immi expanded into retail in 2022, launching at Whole Foods, Wegmans and The Fresh Market, and its private tasting community has grown from about 4,000 to 6,000 members. The company plans to unveil nine additional flavors and is experimenting with another 12 potential flavors, plus exploring other products outside of ramen. Product roadmap work includes noodle texture and cook-time improvements and new formats such as cups. Management plans to use new capital to round out its executive team, fund product development research, and expand retail distribution nationwide. Immi produces plant-based, low-carb, low-sodium instant ramen cups that average 22 grams of protein and come in Black Garlic “Chicken,” Tom Yum “Shrimp,” and Spicy “Beef.” The founders, Kevin Lee and Kevin Chanthasiriphan, went full-time on the company in 2019 and spent several years on R&D to reformulate a product that replicates traditional broth taste, mouthfeel, texture and slurpability. The company launched its products in January and sold out inventory in the first month; it has since sold over 10,000 orders and built a 4,000-member community used for rapid taste testing. Immi plans to expand its product line with more flavors and noodle types and to develop additional Asian food products like snacks and confections with cleaner ingredients. The team is focused on marketing and distribution growth, including expanding into wholesale channels and online grocers and exploring international sales. The company is hiring for key executive roles and working to optimize its supply chain while continuing product iteration based on customer feedback.
