BoldHue builds a countertop “Keurig for makeup” device that scans the face with a wand and dispenses a week’s worth of custom foundation blended from five pigments. The device is priced at $295 and pairs with a companion app that alerts users when pigment cartridges need refills (roughly $15–$20 each). A starter kit includes the first month of foundation and accessories; BoldHue will also offer a premium package for makeup artists. In the near term the company plans a nationwide roadshow and will ship 10,000 units to a 40,000-person waitlist before general availability. Longer-term plans include a virtual try-on app, broader personalization options, and expansion into other makeup categories and partner formulations. To date BoldHue has raised roughly $5 million in total capital.

FarmHQ, formerly CODA Farm Technologies, was founded in 2020 by brothers David and Connor Wallace and is based north of Seattle. The company adds IoT sensors and controls to existing irrigation pumps, valves and flow meters and delivers real-time irrigation data to a cell-phone dashboard. Its system supports a wide range of sprinkler setups and is designed to reduce manual labor, prevent flooding, and improve water efficiency. Last year FarmHQ’s devices helped save approximately 365 million gallons of water across roughly 40,000 acres. The business has eight employees plus a network of dealers and is operating in the U.S., Canada, Mexico and has a pilot deployment in Australia; farm accounts and dealer partners have each grown roughly fourfold and revenue is up fourfold year over year. Customer retention is high, with a reported 95% contract renewal rate, and the company plans to pursue a Series A. CODA Farm Technologies develops hardware and a software platform that controls traveling-sprinkler irrigation systems and streams real-time irrigation data to a cellphone dashboard. The company was founded in 2020 by siblings who returned to their family potato farm in Western Washington’s Skagit Valley after careers in data science and technology. Their system modulates flow to prevent stalls and field flooding and provides remote monitoring. The startup has navigated supply-chain challenges that required design changes to obscure parts. CODA has sold 120 devices to 20 farms across eight U.S. states and Canadian provinces and collected data from 3,000 irrigation activities. Based on that data, their technology saved 21 million gallons of water and 4,300 gallons of diesel; the new capital will fund scaling production, geographic expansion, R&D and data collection, and the team of five may double in 2022 with some fulfillment shifting to Seattle.

Charmed is a Seattle-based startup developing an AI-powered 3D game design toolbox that generates character models, textures, and animations. The company plans to launch a new AI-powered tool this month that creates 3D character models from scratch via prompt-driven workflows. The new tool comprises a Geometry Generator, a Texture Generator, and a Character Animator that together produce models, clothing/skins, and sample animations. Charmed’s product portfolio also includes Dream Dungeon (an isometric maze generator), a quest generator, and an AI texture generator for colorful skins. Founder Jeremy Tryba positions the company as a set of tools to help 3D artists work in parallel and shorten development times rather than a full no-code game-design solution. Charmed spun out of Madrona Venture Labs and was founded last year; Madrona provided its first round of funding.
