    Participated · Seed · Jun 2026

    Compri has developed an AI-native platform centered on a Procurement Intelligence module that embeds autonomous agents into procurement and supply chain workflows. The platform integrates tools for managing requests for proposals, end-to-end order and purchase confirmation automation, supplier onboarding and compliance, and approval workflows for purchase requisitions. Compri’s AI agents centralize data from ERPs, e-mail, Excel, PDF and external databases to handle follow-ups, documentation collection, compliance monitoring and order confirmation control. The company serves customers across sectors including automotive, energy, machinery, transportation, packaging, food & beverage and aerospace & defense. Compri operates in seven international markets. Financially, the company has raised a total of over €5M to date, including a €1.6M pre-seed and the recent €3.2M round.

  • Grid.online

    Led · Equity · Jun 2026

    Grid.online operates a neutral shared courier infrastructure and API that lets multiple parcel carriers tap into a common network of flexible local couriers while keeping their own fleets, customer relationships and brands. Founded in 2025 by Ondřej Krátký and Patrik Raš, the startup scaled parcel volumes more than 10× in its first full year and surpassed one million deliveries through the network. The platform currently connects 1,000–2,000 active couriers and has several thousand more on a waiting list. Management highlights strong unit economics as the business scaled, and existing clients are deepening integrations over time. Grid.online plans to use new funding to increase network capacity and resilience and grow engineering and product automation teams, with a view to international expansion.

  • Getmobil

    Participated · Series A · Dec 2025

    Getmobil integrates all steps of the second-hand and refurbished electronics value chain—purchase, refurbishment, pricing, inventory tracking and regulatory compliance—into a single digital operating system. Founded by Mehmet Uygun and Zeynep Uygun, the company serves more than 32,000 mobile phone dealers across Turkey, enabling data-driven pricing and stock management. Dealers using Getmobil’s infrastructure have reported approximately 60% revenue growth and a 50% increase in inventory turnover. The platform also powers trade-in and refurbishment programs for major brands such as Apple, Samsung, Hepsiburada, Sahibinden, Troy and Vatan, making certified devices available to consumers. Turkey’s second-hand electronics market is estimated at roughly $8 billion and has recently gained clearer regulatory backing, which Getmobil leverages to standardize an otherwise fragmented space. Post-financing, the company plans to roll out a nationwide “doorstep buyback” model that lets consumers sell devices from home with digital payments. The fresh capital strengthens Getmobil’s balance sheet as it scales both its dealer network and direct-to-consumer services.

  • Liablix

    Led · Seed · Dec 2025

    Liablix provides insurers with an AI-powered platform that converts accident photos and incident data into an objective 3D reconstruction to determine liability and detect fraud. By replacing subjective, manual reviews with automated, evidence-based evaluations, the software verifies whether vehicle damage and reported injuries align with reconstructed accident dynamics. The system combines advanced computer vision, physics-based simulation, and legally admissible reporting, enabling faster, more consistent claim resolutions. Fraud losses in motor insurance are estimated at $6.8-$9.3 billion annually, and Liablix targets this pain point by offering scalable, automated detection. The company positions its technology as difficult to replicate, creating a defensible advantage in a historically under-digitalised market. Fresh capital will support international expansion toward large global insurers still struggling with slow, manual workflows. Although early in its lifecycle, Liablix has attracted multiple venture backers and plans to leverage its pre-seed funding to accelerate go-to-market efforts and product development.

  • Cofrai

    Led · Seed · Sep 2025

    Cofrai provides an end-to-end software suite—combining back-office tools, a technician mobile app, and AI-powered features—that helps fire-protection service providers replace spreadsheets and paper workflows. The platform streamlines scheduling, maintenance logs, and billing while supporting compliance with Spain’s RIPCI and Verifactu regulations, reducing regulatory risk for customers. Founded by Rafael Gorjao, Antonio Acevedo, and Javier Goitia, the company launched its MVP 18 months ago and has already signed nearly 100 client firms, including sector leaders. Cofrai positions itself as the digital operating system for a fragmented, analogue industry that safeguards public safety. With the fresh capital, the team plans to accelerate product development, expand its engineering staff, and scale operations to solidify its status as Spain’s market standard before moving abroad. The company relies on a SaaS revenue model and aims to leverage AI to further automate compliance and administrative tasks for customers.
