- Wonderdog
Led · Seed · Jul 2026
Wonderdog offers a subscription-based health intelligence platform that coordinates at-home blood collection draws and monitors more than 40 biomarkers across six canine body systems. Its software includes an internal, context-trained AI companion called "Spark" that cross-references Antech laboratory results with age, breed, and longitudinal electronic medical histories to identify asymptomatic disease within critical intervention windows. The company was founded by Jeff Safenowitz and Patrick Riley and lists Dr. Evan Antin as Chief Medical Officer. Wonderdog launched out of stealth concurrent with its announced pre-seed financing. With the $5 million raise, the company plans to scale its at-home veterinary technician network, accelerate mobile product engineering, and expand into Phoenix and Miami. The articles do not disclose revenue, user counts, or other operating metrics.
- Kin Health
Led · Seed · May 2026
Kin Health builds a patient-facing AI notetaker that records doctor visits, transcribes conversations using specialized medical models, and returns user-facing summaries with action items and next steps. The app encrypts patient data and is private by default; it is not HIPAA-certified but the company says it adheres to the same privacy standards. Founders are physicians Arpan and Amit Parikh and Kyle Alwyn, with GoodRx co-founders Doug Hirsch and Trevor Bezdek as founding partners and executive chairmen. Kin says it evaluates outputs at multiple processing stages to improve accuracy and is working to handle different accents and challenging audio conditions. The company plans to bring in additional health data sources this year, including physicians’ notes via EHR integrations, and will keep the app free while monetizing through referrals to specialists and labs. The product faces industry concerns around AI accuracy, consent, and data security, and Kin notes clinicians should review AI-generated documentation.
- Jampack AI
Led · Seed · Feb 2026
Jampack AI offers intelligent, agent-driven workflows that handle wholesale tasks such as purchase order processing, truckload scheduling, and invoicing without requiring brands to replace their existing systems. Launched publicly just five months ago, the platform already processes more than $500 million in annualized wholesale volume for rapidly growing CPG names like Fishwife, Immi, and Path Water. Customers report saving at least 20 hours per week on manual work, cutting freight costs by 15%, and achieving 50× faster order-to-invoice cycles, which reduces fees and chargebacks. Co-founded by Matteo Rossant and Rezi Tsulukidze, the company leverages Rossant’s prior experience scaling logistics at N!CK’S to design workflows that meet brands “where they are.” With its recent capital infusion, Jampack AI plans to grow its engineering team and deepen integrations across the broader CPG technology stack. The company is headquartered in Brooklyn, New York, and positions itself as critical infrastructure for emerging and established consumer brands.
- WeatherPromise
Led · Series A · Jan 2026
WeatherPromise partners with leading travel, hospitality and event companies—such as Marriott, Expedia, JetBlue, Invia and HomeToGo—to offer weather-guaranteed bookings that reimburse customers automatically if conditions fall short of the promise.

With offices in the United States and Germany, WeatherPromise aims to become indispensable across travel, concerts, sporting events, golf and other outdoor activities.

- Stickerbox
Participated · Equity · Nov 2025
Stickerbox, created by Brooklyn-based startup Hapiko, is an AI-enabled toy that lets children press a button, describe an image aloud, and instantly receive a printed thermal sticker based on that prompt. The red, Etch-A-Sketch-sized device costs $99.99 and ships with three BPA- and BPS-free paper rolls (about 180 stickers) plus colored pencils. It combines several AI models, including proprietary safety layers that block violent, sexual, or profane content, making it a parent-friendly product. Revenue today comes from hardware sales and low-margin paper refills priced at $5.99 for three rolls, while future monetization could include premium features such as uploading personal photos, collaborative tools, and content saved via an upcoming companion app. Because the printer is Wi-Fi connected, Hapiko can push new firmware, guardrails, and feature updates over the air. The company was founded in 2023 by CEO Arun Gupta and CTO Robert (Bob) Whitney, who previously worked together at fashion marketplace Grailed. To date, Stickerbox has secured $7 million in venture backing from consumer-focused investors.
