- Clearly.help
Participated · Equity · Apr 2026
Clearly.help provides therapeutic solutions that combine artificial intelligence with human intervention through a network of licensed psychologists. The company reports delivering over 20,000 therapy sessions per month and generating monthly revenues in excess of €500,000. Its network includes more than 1,000 active psychologists, roughly 20% of whom are based in Spain, and it plans to recruit many more in the near term. Clearly has chosen Spain as one of its initial priority markets due to rapid adoption and growing interest in mental health. CEO and cofounder Dmytro Marakhovskyi emphasizes making personalized therapy accessible regardless of users' residence or economic situation.

- Lupin & Holmes
Participated · Seed · Mar 2026
Lupin & Holmes was founded by Roni Carta and builds an upstream security platform called Depi that maps real attack paths to help enterprises spot attacks before they happen. The startup says it has several Fortune 500 clients, and names Ledger as one customer. Carta, 23, previously worked as a professional bug bounty hunter and a red team/security tester at ManoMano, earning nearly $800,000 in bounty rewards from companies including Google, Amazon and Netflix. The company has attracted sizable pre-seed capital, raising $5.9M in the recent round. Lupin & Holmes is hiring roughly 10 people and will deploy the funding toward research, product development and scaling the team. The company emphasizes its grounding in hacker culture as core to its approach.
- Rightcharge
Participated · Seed · Oct 2025
London-based Rightcharge has developed a software platform that connects drivers’ home energy accounts, public charge cards and fleet vehicles into a single billing system, enabling automated, tax-compliant reimbursement for electric-vehicle charging. By crediting payments directly to electricity bills, the service maintains accuracy as tariffs change, reduces fraud through AI-driven anomaly detection, and produces HMRC-compliant audit trails. A companion public charge card gives access to more than 70 % of UK public chargers, while all costs flow into one consolidated monthly invoice. Early adopters include The Automobile Association (AA) and fleets across construction, healthcare and government sectors. Customers report up to 90 % reductions in charging costs, roughly 30 % lower carbon emissions and significantly reduced administrative work. The company plans to use new capital to expand across Europe, supported by a partnership with Octopus Electroverse. Rightcharge recently closed a seed funding round to finance these growth initiatives.
- Kilde
Led · Equity · Oct 2025
Founded in 2020 by Czech entrepreneur Radek Jezbera, Kilde operates an investment platform licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore that matches accredited investors with non-bank consumer lenders seeking private credit financing. The platform curates asset-backed, risk-assessed products that deliver regular returns and offers investors exposure to the fast-growing Asian private credit market. Kilde reports profitability and recently surpassed USD 130 million in assets under management, a figure it aims to double within the next year. Management and investors project the company could exceed USD 100 million in annual revenue by 2030. Future plans include accelerating growth, adding new features to the platform, and broadening its geographic footprint across Asia. The company positions itself as an alternative to traditional bank funding for consumer lenders while delivering steady yield to investors. Its regulated status and growing AUM underline its traction in a capital-intensive segment of fintech.
- Talentiqa
Led · Equity · Oct 2025
Founded in 2021 by Marek Dian and Miro Šmelko, Talentiqa offers an AI-powered platform that automates the most time-consuming front-end steps of hiring. The software conducts asynchronous interviews, parses résumés, verifies candidate information, and stores profiles in a centralized talent pool. Its automation is aimed at employers with very high hiring volumes in sectors such as retail, logistics, food services, banking, telecommunications, and energy. By replacing manual screening with automated scoring, the product promises both faster time-to-hire and improved accuracy in candidate selection. The company plans to use its latest capital infusion to expand commercial activities across Europe and into additional international markets. To date, Talentiqa has disclosed total external funding of €1 million. No revenue or user metrics were provided in the available reports.
