  • Enera

    Led · Seed · Jun 2026

    Enera builds an AI-native operational infrastructure suite for electric vehicle charging networks that includes a Control Room data-ingestion engine and automated white-labeled helpline agents. The Control Room ingests driver support calls, telemetry signals and backend logs to identify where the charging experience is breaking down at scale. Bespoke AI Support Agents are then deployed to take helpline calls, troubleshoot live telemetry anomalies, proactively monitor the network and reach out to drivers before issues arise. The company offers 24/7 instant technical support to drivers and aims to reduce failed charging sessions. Enera is led by co-founders Nicholas Marquardt (CEO) and Arnaldo Vera and operates from London and Barcelona. Following its $2M Pre-Seed raise, the company plans to expand active pilots with UK CPOs and accelerate broader European expansion.

  • Hurray's GIRL BEER

    Led · Seed · Mar 2026

    Hurray's GIRL BEER, launched in Fall 2024 by Los Angeles-based consumer brand company Hurray, produces 4.2% ABV light beers with real juice, organic flavors, 95 calories, and zero added sugar. The company positions itself at the intersection of flavor, fun, and cultural relevance to attract the growing female majority of under-30 alcohol consumers, 60% of whom say they avoid beer due to limited flavor options. Following a successful California debut, the brand rapidly expanded across the Southwest and Texas through leading Anheuser-Busch and Molson Coors distributors and secured shelf space at Walmart, Kroger, Albertsons, and Whole Foods. In its first year, GIRL BEER achieved top-15% velocity performance in many grocery accounts. The team is scaling nationally in 2026, adding seven new flavors and increasing pack formats to 6-packs and mixed 12-packs. Recent hires from Molson Coors, Juneshine, Red Bull, Walmart, and Liquid Death bolster sales, operations, and marketing capabilities. The fresh capital will fund nationwide marketing campaigns, deeper ACV in existing regions, and selective entry into the Midwest and Southeast retail markets.

  • Keeper

    Led · Seed · Dec 2025

    Founded in 2022, New York-based Keeper applies psychometrics, open-ended data collection, and guidance from Stanford evolutionary scientists to create what it calls the world’s most effective AI matchmaker. The product screens thousands of potential partners and presents users with one tailored match at a time, emphasizing quality over quantity and aligning its business model with user success. During beta, more than 1.5 million people signed up and the service achieved an unprecedented 1-in-10 first-date-to-marriage rate. Recent R&D efforts have transitioned Keeper from a human-in-the-loop, AI-assisted workflow to Keeper V2, where AI handles search, ranking, and proposing matches before a human completes a quick review. The company is now scaling its matching engine, broadening distribution channels, and adding coaching and feedback features to enhance user outcomes. Management positions Keeper as a solution to global loneliness by delivering “your last first date.” No revenue figures have been disclosed, but the platform’s early engagement and success metrics underscore strong product-market fit.
