Resolv develops an AI-native platform that automates identifying, filing and tracking rebates for home services contractors and integrates with ServiceTitan and Housecall Pro. The company also offers upfront rebate financing so contractors receive payment immediately rather than waiting months for reimbursement. Founded by Sam Ruderman and Shane Smith and based in San Francisco, Resolv began operations in 2025. In 2025 it secured roughly $10M in rebates for nearly 100 contractors in California. The company is expanding its product scope into permits, warranty registrations and broader back-office workflows as it builds a single end-to-end platform. The recent Pre-Seed raise will fund expanded operations and development efforts to support that growth.

Ando is developing what it calls the world’s first AI infrastructure for the global hourly workforce, tackling the persistent mismatch between staffing levels and real-time demand. Its cloud platform ingests location-level data to forecast demand and auto-generate shift schedules that factor in each worker’s availability, preferences, and constraints. In pilots with enterprise customers over the past year, Ando’s models have achieved more than 90% daily demand-forecast accuracy and driven 100% conversion from presentation to pilot to paid contracts with full customer retention. Some client locations have reported $60,000–$80,000 in incremental revenue attributed in part to better staffing alignment. The company’s roadmap includes pushing forecasting granularity to 15-minute intervals to further optimize labor allocation. Fresh seed capital will fund product expansion and broader enterprise deployments. Prior to the seed raise, Ando had been operating with undisclosed pre-seed or founder capital; no other institutional rounds are mentioned.
