CellarEye
CellarEye is a Menlo Park software company that turns a private wine cellar into an interactive, searchable database. Built by Silicon Valley collectors tired of spreadsheets and manual audits, the app uses real-photo cellar mapping, NFC SmartStickers, and computer-vision technology to let collectors locate any bottle in seconds, track valuations and critic scores, and monitor drinking windows across multiple cellars.
BlueZoo Inc.
BlueZoo Inc. is a Menlo Park-based analytics company that measures real-world foot traffic by passively counting the Wi-Fi probe requests smartphones broadcast - turning phones into an anonymous proxy for people. Its cloud software and Wi-Fi sensors deliver real-time, auditable, privacy-respecting counts of visitors, unique visitors, and dwell time for out-of-home advertising, retail media, hospitality, and smart-city customers. Protected by seven U.S. patents and GDPR-certified by ePrivacy, BlueZoo is positioning itself as an independent measurement 'currency' for the digital-out-of-home advertising industry.
Jingle
Jingle is a Menlo Park marketplace that flips food and services delivery on its head. Instead of the usual model where a courier is dispatched to fetch your order, Jingle runs a 'push' model: mobile stores - shops on wheels - stocked with ice cream, pastries, and services like grooming or knife sharpening drive through neighborhoods and ping nearby users through the app when they roll by. Think ice cream truck, but with software, a map, and a flat $2.99 delivery fee. Founded in 2022 by former venture capitalist Baris Karadogan, the company raised a $2.9M seed round led by Bessemer Venture Partners to help local and artisanal vendors go mobile, reach customers directly, and skip the fees and wait times of conventional delivery apps.
Pegbo
Pegbo is a Menlo Park construction-technology startup that gives preconstruction teams AI coworkers to source, engage, and vet trade partners. Its platform searches a database of more than one million verified subcontractors and suppliers - filterable by scope, location, NAICS code, union status, and certifications like MBE, DBE, and WBE - then automates outreach, bid-coverage tracking, document collection, and compliance so general contractors and project owners can hit supplier-diversity goals faster and with less busywork.
The June Care Company
The June Care Company is a mom-led childcare marketplace that connects parents needing care with vetted, background-checked stay-at-home parents in their own neighborhoods. Founded in 2021 by former Intuit general manager Gretchen Salyer, it began as pandemic-era childcare swaps among friends and grew into an app-based platform matching families with trusted local caregivers - closing the gap between families who lack affordable, flexible childcare and stay-at-home parents who want income without leaving home. Backed by $3.6M in seed funding from Craft Ventures, Greycroft, and Yes VC.
AttoTude
AttoTude is a Menlo Park, California deep-tech startup building the world's first THz (terahertz) radio over wire - an interconnect platform that moves data between AI servers and GPUs at hundreds of gigabits per second over standard wire, without photonics or exotic packaging. Founded in 2024 by optical-networking veteran Dave Welch and RF/semiconductor pioneer Joy Laskar, the company adapts fiber-grade signaling to terahertz frequencies on low-cost ASICs to break the bandwidth, power, and reliability bottlenecks choking AI data centers. It came out of stealth at OFC 2025 and has raised roughly $91M total, including a $50M Series B led by Mayfield.
