We loved…
AskEdith – Siri but for data
In a world full of data, AskEdith showed us that data analysis can be as easy as asking a question.
Apella – AI-enabled Surgery
If there’s one thing these past two-and-a-half years have shown us, it is that investing in healthcare and medicine is of utmost importance. With 15 million Americans undergoing surgery every year, Apella inspired us by improving surgery with AI.
Fable – Premium book clubs
Books are a source of improvement, well-being, and pleasure. In a space that has had stayed relatively constant, Fable stood out to us with their creative idea in an unconventional space that we all enjoy.
Kalshi – Trade on real world events
Market disrupter? More like market maker. We loved Kalshi, a startup that we believe will transform both the financial and tech world by allowing normal people like us to trade on topics familiar to all of us: real world events.
And our top startup of 2022…
Clay!
Clay reminded us of the importance of our small day-to-day interactions. In a world where it’s easy to get caught up with constant meetings, calls, coffee-chats, Clay reminds us of the human side to all of this. Clay puts control of our personal relationships and lives back into our hands.
