- Caveo
Led · Series A · Dec 2025
Founded in 2022, Caveo positions itself as a one-stop financial platform for physicians, providing a digital account, automated accounting, tax and financial management, and an AI assistant embedded in WhatsApp. The company already operates in 93% of Brazil’s medical schools and captured 8% of the country’s 2023 graduating physicians, 18% of the 2024 class, and is tracking toward roughly 40% of 2025 graduates. More seasoned doctors now represent 30% of new clients, reflecting Caveo’s move beyond early-career professionals. Roughly 95% of sales come via referrals and the startup reports an NPS close to 90 for the semester, underscoring strong user satisfaction and stickiness. Community features such as networking, educational tracks and practical job-placement support further deepen engagement and drive product adoption. Management sees Brazil’s ongoing medical workforce expansion—projected to exceed one million practitioners by 2035—as a key growth catalyst, given that over 70% of doctors still feel insecure about accounting and tax matters. With fresh capital, Caveo intends to broaden its feature set and cement itself as a lifelong financial partner for physicians.
- Superpanel
Participated · Seed · Sep 2025
Founded in 2024 by Julien Emery and Dingyu Zhang, Superpanel offers law firms an AI-driven "digital teammate" that manages roughly half of the administrative work involved in onboarding new clients. The system engages potential plaintiffs across phone, text, email, and online forms, guiding them through storytelling and document collection while automatically classifying case type, jurisdiction, and required paperwork. When ambiguity arises, the workflow escalates to a human staff member, giving firms a unified, multi-channel process that mirrors a full-time employee. Emery, a former Hootsuite executive who previously exited his startup Allay to Novo Benefits, built Superpanel after experiencing the high cost and complexity of finding legal help. The company plans to deepen its capabilities specifically for plaintiff-side practices and continue hiring to support product expansion. Competitors in the rapidly evolving legal-tech landscape include Clio Grow, LegalClerk.ai, MyCase, and Whippy.ai. No revenue or user metrics were disclosed in the article.
