Founders re-architecting the Enterprise for the AI economy.

From foundational Enterprise software to AI-native companies, our portfolio traces an evolution in how businesses get built.

WHERE WE'RE INVESTING

WHERE WE'RE INVESTING

WHERE WE'RE INVESTING

Three ways into the AI-native economy.

AI is not another software cycle. It is an inversion in how work is performed: software no longer just organizes information, it reasons, decides, and acts. Humans will lead. AI agents will execute. We back founders building for that world across three categories.

Powering Agents

The rails agents run on. Memory, identity, tools, and orchestration for machines that act, not just answer.

AI-Native Operating Systems & Services

Companies re-architecting how industries operate. Some arm incumbents to rebuild their operations. Others deliver the service itself, ten times better, because of AI.

The Newly-Imagined

Markets that did not exist before AI. Ambiguous today, obvious at scale.

Powering Agents

Companies building the infrastructure that lets AI agents act, transact, and operate on their own.

AI-Native Operating Systems & Services

Companies re-architecting how their industries operate, from insurance to freight to healthcare.

Operational Intelligence

AutoStep

Watches how work actually happens on employee desktops, prices every recurring task, then builds the agent or process change that removes it.
