The Spanish Company That Answers the Door for 85 Countries
Every apartment buzzer has a story. For millions of doors from Valencia to Sydney, the story starts at a Spanish radio-repair workshop that opened in 1949.
Modern
Modern is a San Francisco startup building an AI-native IT function - a single platform where always-on agents automate help desk, access, hardware, on/off-boarding, security and procurement inside the tools teams already use, such as Slack, Teams, email and voice. Founded in 2026 by Seb Poole and Aleks Tomovski and backed by Y Combinator (P26), it positions itself as a ServiceNow alternative that resolves requests end-to-end rather than routing tickets, claiming 80%+ automation of inbound IT requests.
Munily App
Munily is a Panama-based proptech company building an access-control and community-management platform for gated communities across Latin America. It replaces broken intercoms and paper visitor logs with an app-and-tablet system that connects security guards, residents, and property administrators - guards photograph a visitor's ID and pick the apartment, and residents approve or deny entry from their phones. A Y Combinator W22 company, Munily has expanded into billing automation, live amenity reservations, and AI-assisted access (license-plate and facial recognition).
Zania
Zania builds autonomous AI agents for governance, risk, and compliance (GRC). Founded in 2023 by former CISO Shruti Gupta, the Palo Alto company deploys domain-specific 'AI teammates' that run third-party risk reviews, controls testing, evidence collection, security questionnaires, and continuous compliance across frameworks like SOC 2, ISO 27001, and HIPAA - work it claims runs up to 30x faster at 90% lower cost with 94%+ accuracy. It raised an $18M Series A led by NEA in 2025.
Network Solutions
Network Solutions is the original commercial domain registrar - the company that ran the .com, .net and .org registries under U.S. government contract in the 1990s and registered the internet's first wave of domain names. Today it operates as a Newfold Digital brand, selling domains, web hosting, websites, professional email, SSL/security and online marketing to small businesses, entrepreneurs and IT professionals. In 2025 it absorbed the Web.com and Register.com brands to become Newfold's flagship all-in-one online-presence platform.
Infisical
Infisical is an open-source security platform that helps engineering teams manage secrets, certificates, and machine identities in one place. Born out of Y Combinator's W23 batch, it replaces scattered .env files and hardcoded API keys with a unified, MIT-licensed stack covering secrets management, dynamic secrets, rotation, secret scanning, PKI, KMS, SSH, and privileged access. Used by companies like Hugging Face, LG, and Lucid, it secures billions of secrets and is backed by Elad Gil, Google's Gradient Ventures, and Y Combinator.
KoreLock
KoreLock is a Denver-based IoT smart lock technology company that gives lock manufacturers and access control providers a turnkey, patented platform - embedded firmware, custom PCBAs, mobile and web apps, and cloud APIs - to turn ordinary offline locks into Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connected devices. Rather than competing with lock makers or software companies, KoreLock positions itself as the interoperability bridge between hardware and access control software, with technology already embedded in tens of thousands of devices across 65+ countries.
Oomnitza
Oomnitza is a San Francisco-based Enterprise Technology Management platform that gives IT teams a single, accurate picture of every asset in their organization — hardware, software, SaaS, and cloud — with 98%+ data accuracy and 1,500+ pre-built integrations. Founded in 2012, the company helps enterprises reduce costs, enforce compliance, and automate IT workflows across the full asset lifecycle, from procurement to offboarding.
Sprinto
Sprinto is a compliance and trust automation platform that helps cloud-first companies achieve and maintain certifications like SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and GDPR without drowning in spreadsheets. It connects to 300+ business systems, continuously monitors controls, and orchestrates audits end-to-end - turning what used to be a six-month consulting project into a continuous, mostly-automated background process.
Teleport
Teleport is the infrastructure identity company. Its open-source Access Platform replaces shared secrets, VPNs, and long-lived credentials with short-lived cryptographic identities for humans, machines, and AI agents accessing servers, Kubernetes clusters, databases, applications, and Windows desktops.
Vanta
Vanta is the trust management platform that automates security and compliance for more than 16,000 companies - turning SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR and dozens of other frameworks from a months-long PDF marathon into something a startup can pass before lunch.
ZeroPath
ZeroPath is an AI-native application security platform that automatically finds and fixes software vulnerabilities. Founded in 2024 by four security and engineering veterans - including a former Google Security Engineer and a former Tesla Red Team engineer - ZeroPath replaces noisy legacy SAST tools with an LLM-powered engine that understands code semantics, verifies exploitability, and generates working patches. Within a year of launch, over 1,000 organizations trust ZeroPath to scan more than 200,000 codebases per month.
