  • Sekai

    Participated · Seed · Dec 2024

    Sekai provides an AI-powered platform that translates plain-language prompts into functional, interactive mini-apps, enabling users to create games, utilities, and social tools in seconds. Its product features a social feed where users can share, remix, and engage with each other’s apps, borrowing viral mechanics similar to TikTok’s remixing. Within two months of launching its creation tools the platform hosted nearly 1 million mini-apps, with roughly half a million apps generated per month. Sekai uses AI coding agents to convert descriptions like “make a quiz about 90s movies” into working applications. The company targets consumer creators rather than enterprise product teams and is positioning itself to lower the barrier to interactive app creation. Following the Series A, Sekai plans to expand its AI creation platform and grow engagement on the network.

    Zylon is a Madrid, Spain–based GenAI application founded in 2023 by Iván Martínez Toro and Daniel Gallego Vico. Its core product is a smart, private AI collaborator that understands businesses and empowers teams without requiring technical or prompt-engineering skills. Zylon can proactively execute tasks, collaborate with employees, and bring new expertise to projects, including report generation, summarization, and querying company data. The product is delivered as a SaaS offering and emphasizes keeping company data 100% private and secured. The company raised $3.2M in pre-seed funding and intends to use the funds to grow the team and evolve the existing SaaS product to serve entrepreneurs and small and medium-sized companies with no in-house AI technical teams.
