VariantNow is building the infrastructure for the adaptive web: a system that decides, generates, deploys and improves, in real time, the most relevant experience for each visitor. Today, most websites show the same experience to every user. VariantNow aims to replace this static logic with dynamic experiences tailored to each visitor’s context, behavior and intent. The company positions itself as a decision layer between brands and their users, much like Google Ads automatically selects the most relevant ad for each user. Why we invested: an immediately measurable use case, lifting brands’ conversion and revenue, combined with the ambition to become core infrastructure for the web of tomorrow.

REVNU is building a self-sufficient growth infrastructure that replaces much of the manual work done by marketing teams. The company starts from a simple observation: with AI, building a product is becoming easier and easier; the real competitive advantage, therefore, lies in the ability to distribute, acquire customers, and grow faster than others. REVNU aims to become companies’ “growth agent”: a proactive system capable of managing multiple acquisition channels LinkedIn, email, ads, SEO, content, ICP testing, and CRM by learning from customer data with each cycle.

Trellis develops AI agents capable of managing short-term rental operations from start to finish: communicating with guests, coordinating housekeeping and maintenance teams, managing operational tasks, and enhancing the customer experience. The company currently positions itself as a software provider for property managers, but it has a much broader ambition: to become the operational infrastructure that will control the guest experience and eventually distribution in the future. The key idea is simple: Airbnb succeeded by controlling discovery and trust. In the era of AI agents, discovery could become fragmented, and trust could shift toward the software capable of guaranteeing that the stay actually takes place. Trellis aims to become that operational standard.
