Emovid
Emovid is a Seattle-based B2B platform for asynchronous, multimodal business communication - video, audio, and text messages meant to replace long email threads and unnecessary meetings. Founded in 2023 by former Evite CEO Victor Cho, it layers AI summaries, transcripts, and 60+ language translation on top of each message, and pairs every video with a patent-pending Seal of Authenticity that verifies the speaker's identity and flags any AI alterations - positioning itself as 'Verified Human Communication' in an era of deepfakes and synthetic media.
TransCrypts
TransCrypts is a blockchain-based digital identity and credential verification company that lets people own and instantly share verified employment, income, education, and health records. Founded in 2020 by cousins Zain Zaidi and Ali Zaheer, it replaces the slow, costly background-check pipeline with permission-based, fraud-proof verification - including JustScreen, billed as the world's first free background check service. Backed by Pantera Capital, Mark Cuban, and others, it serves millions of users and hundreds of enterprises, including Fortune 100 and 500 companies.
Jericho Security
Jericho Security is a New York-based cybersecurity company that uses generative AI to defend organizations against AI-powered attacks. Its platform runs hyper-realistic, AI-generated phishing, voice-clone, and deepfake simulations to train employees, then measures human risk through a dashboard of analytics and KPIs. Founded in 2023, the company pits an AI 'red team' against an AI 'blue team' to find and close the gaps attackers now exploit at machine speed - an approach it sums up as fighting AI with AI.
