Cisco
The company that quietly wired the internet is now betting its next chapter on securing and connecting the machines that run artificial intelligence.
Cisco Systems
Cisco Systems is an American multinational technology company and the world's largest maker of networking hardware. Founded in 1984 by two Stanford computer scientists, it builds the routers, switches, silicon, security, and software that route much of the world's internet traffic. Today Cisco is repositioning around AI infrastructure, cybersecurity, and observability - anchored by its 2024 acquisition of Splunk - while remaining the default backbone for enterprise, service-provider, and government networks.
Recall.ai
Recall.ai is a San Francisco developer-infrastructure company that sells a universal API for capturing meetings. Instead of building brittle bots for Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, Slack Huddles and in-person calls, developers make a single API call and get back recordings, transcripts, and rich participant metadata. Founded by University of Waterloo dropouts David Gu and Amanda, the company pivoted from a consumer meeting app into the plumbing beneath a wave of AI notetakers and sales tools, and now powers thousands of companies. Recall.ai is Y Combinator-backed and raised a $38M Series B at a reported ~$250M valuation in September 2025.
Mio
Mio is an Austin, Texas company that makes enterprise chat platforms talk to each other. Instead of forcing a whole organization onto a single tool, Mio sits in the middle and federates the public APIs of Microsoft Teams, Slack, Google Chat, Zoom Team Chat and Cisco Webex so a message typed in one app lands natively in another. Founded in 2015 by Tom Hadfield and James Cundle and backed by Y Combinator, Khosla Ventures, Zoom and Cisco, Mio turns the messy reality of multi-platform companies (and the partners they work with) into a single, interoperable conversation.
