AI agents are coming for the paperwork side of running a job. RFIs, submittal chasing, daily reports.
Shackleton AI launched today with $5M in seed funding. It says its agents draft RFIs, follow up on overdue submittals, flag budget problems, and turn field notes into daily reports, with a person approving before anything goes out. Those are the company's claims, from its own release.
If you're stepping up to lead, super or PM, that list is a big part of your new job. Software can do the typin ...more

We're leading Granit's $6M seed round.
Healthcare professionals train for years, only to spend a growing share of their time on admin.
More than eight in ten European clinicians say admin work cuts into the time they can give patients.
Granit want to give healthcare workers that time back.
Their AI agents work inside the software healthcare teams already use, taking on routine, administrative work staff currently do by hand.
Eight months after it was founded, Granit already works with m ...more

Deepgram just bought the team behind Pipecat.
Pipecat is the open source framework a lot of voice agent builders lean on to stitch together speech recognition, language models, and speech synthesis without locking into one vendor. Deepgram is keeping it open and vendor neutral, which was reportedly the condition that got the deal done, and the two teams also shipped a new shared standard for passing tone and intent between the pieces of a voice stack. The infrastructure layer is consolidating f ...more

Seed has never been more dynamic.
J.P. Morgan's H2 2026 Startup Insights shows $100M+ seed rounds at an all-time high, close to $15B of AI capital at the seed stage, and one in four venture-backed acquisitions now involving a seed-stage company, up from 16% in 2020.
The last number is the one I find most interesting. Seed has become an exit stage in its own right, which changes how founders can plan their path and how early investors underwrite it. Worth the read.

Everyone tells AI founders to chase the big-name funds but the seed rounds announced in one week in October say something else.
I went through 64 confirmed AI funding rounds from Oct 18-24.
Twelve were seed or pre-seed rounds for companies building AI agents or the tools around them. Ten named a lead and only one firm led more than one.
Why founders chase the big names -
- AI took 82.7% of US venture dollars through September.
- Established firms took 88.2% of all the money VCs raised this ...more

The #1 thing holding AI back at work is untrained people.
Yet only 1 in 3 leaders say they have a mature training programme. Here’s what that means for founders:
In 2022, we backed Data Literacy Academy.
For context, they train employees at every level to understand, question and make decisions with data. When we led its pre-seed round, 30+ organisations had been through its private beta, including the Football Association, the Ministry of Defence and Wesleyan.

Your seed money: gone.
Your Series A proof: not ready.
And the typical Series A grew to $17.4M this year.
In 2026, a seed round has to buy more proof per dollar to reach a Series A.
The typical seed round is $3.0M.
The Series A after it is about 5.8 times bigger.
Seed is the only stage where the typical check stayed flat or shrank this year.
Every later stage grew.
Meanwhile, the headlines call it a record year.
So far this year, 82.7% of US venture dollars went to AI.
In Q3, rounds ...more

I did not chase them. did not follow up. The first deck was clear enough that a second one was the obvious next step.
That’s my whole sales process.
I have built 300+ pitch decks for founders raising pre-seed and seed rounds, $500K to $5M.
Different industries, same problem: investors dont pass because the design is ugly. They pass because they did not get the business in 3 minutes.
Deck reviews open this week. Details in the first comment.

Europe's most valuable AI startup is about 11% owned by a company that makes chip machines.
ASML paid €1.3B for that stake in 2025. At Mistral's September price, it's worth about €2B.
Here's who owns Mistral, slice by slice:
1. Founders and staff, ~31%. Arthur Mensch, Guillaume Lample, Timothée Lacroix, plus employee options.
2. Seed investors, ~24%. Lightspeed led, June 2023.

The average #seed-stage consumer startup now fits around one small table.
Carta found those teams averaged 3.5 people when they closed their seed round in 2024. Two years earlier, it was 6.4.
Some of the fastest-moving teams on our floor are also the smallest.
The headcount is the least interesting part. What fills the gap is. Founders are writing the code, the sales emails and the board update themselves.
And every hire carries more weight, because one person can change how the whole comp ...more

Caraway Home launched seven years ago today. I was in the NYC office with Jordan Nathan and the team when the site went live.
The year before, Jordan had cold emailed me about a cookware company he was calling Parfait. He’d found me on Crunchbase. We lived five blocks apart in the West Village and ended up meeting for coffee every week for a month.
I wrote the first check and helped him fill out the pre-seed and seed rounds. At the time, I was still working full-time in real estate. SuperAngel ...more
