Warner Bros. Discovery
Warner Bros. Discovery owns more than a shelf of famous titles. It owns a system for sending the same story through theaters, television, streaming, games, licensing and experiences - while managing the costly tension between a growing digital future and a shrinking cable past.
Third Chair
Third Chair is an AI-native IP enforcement and licensing platform that helps rightsholders find who is using their content, trademarks, and likeness without permission and turn that unauthorized use into revenue. Backed by Y Combinator (X25) and FundersClub with $2.3M raised, it pairs AI agents that monitor, investigate, and draft demand letters with an on-demand network of lawyers. Customers - including Universal Music Group and much of the recorded-music industry - used the product to generate more than $1M in revenue in the last six months of 2025.
Miso.ai
Miso.ai (Miso Technologies) builds LLM-powered search, answers, and personalization for publishers, marketplaces, and content sites. Its flagship product, Miso Answers, sits on top of a customer's own content catalog to deliver ChatGPT-style, citation-backed answers with no hallucinations - fine-tuned to each brand's voice and grounded only in their material. Spun out of privacy-centric 'small data' research at Cornell Tech's Small Data Lab, Miso helps sites like O'Reilly Online Learning and Foundry's tech publications turn their archives into trustworthy answer engines that lift engagement and subscriptions.
