BOND
BOND is a San Francisco startup building Donna, an AI Chief of Staff for CEOs, founders and busy executives. Donna plugs into the tools a company already runs on - Slack, Gmail, Notion, Linear, Jira, Asana and more - learns how the organization actually works, and surfaces the highest-leverage moves: what shipped, who is blocked, and the top priorities for the day. Founded in 2025 by Chloe Samaha and Rene Sultan and backed by Y Combinator's X25 batch, BOND aims to give every founder an executive right hand that used to cost a six-figure salary.
Height
Height was a New York-based software company that built an AI-native project management and collaboration tool for product teams. Founded in 2018 by ex-Stripe designer-engineer Michael Villar, Height combined tasks, chat, and adaptive workflows in one keyboard-first app, then pivoted to an 'autonomous' model in which an AI agent called Copilot handled the routine legwork of building software - triaging bugs, updating specs, pruning backlogs, and drafting standups. Backed by roughly $18.3M in venture funding, Height competed with Linear, Asana, and Jira before winding the product down in 2025.
Opus Training
Opus Training is a New York-based, AI-powered mobile training platform built for the frontline, deskless workforce - the servers, cooks, housekeepers, grocery clerks and factory staff who rarely sit at a desk. Founded by CEO Rachael Nemeth, Opus delivers bite-sized, mobile-first lessons and standard operating procedures directly to workers' phones, onboards staff faster, auto-translates content into 100+ languages, and tracks training completion across every location in real time. It replaces binders and legacy LMS tools with training that lives where frontline employees actually work.

Tana
Tana is an AI-native workspace that turns messy notes, meetings and voice memos into structured, queryable knowledge. Its signature feature, Supertags, lets any bullet point become a database record with defined fields, so notes double as a living knowledge graph that AI agents can read, summarize and act on. Founded in 2021 by ex-Googlers and productivity builders and based in Palo Alto with an engineering hub in Oslo, Tana raised a $14M Series A in February 2025 (led by Tola Capital), reaching $25M total funding after emerging from a stealth beta with a 160,000+ person waitlist.
