Codi
Codi is a San Francisco startup rethinking the office for hybrid work. It began by offering private, fully serviced, turnkey offices on short leases - a flexible alternative to WeWork-style co-working and traditional multi-year commercial leases - and has since expanded into an AI-powered platform that automates office management tasks like cleaning, pantry restocking, and vendor coordination. Founded in 2018 by Christelle Rohaut and Dave Schuman, Codi has raised roughly $23 million, including a $16 million Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz.
HERE
HERE is the enterprise browser company formerly known as OpenFin. Built on Google Chromium, its software turns the workday browser into a unified workspace - stitching web apps, internal tools and data together so employees stop paying the 'toggle tax' of jumping between disconnected applications. After 14 years winning over the world's largest banks with its desktop interoperability platform, OpenFin relaunched as HERE in June 2024 to take the same technology beyond finance into contact centers, healthcare, government and any enterprise drowning in browser tabs.
Bitrix24
Bitrix24 is an all-in-one online workspace that bundles CRM, project management, HR, communication, and AI automation into a single platform. Launched in 2012 and used by over 15 million organizations in 16 languages, it is the only major CRM in the world that prices per organization rather than per user - a structural bet that has made it a go-to for SMBs and growing teams that refuse to pay headcount taxes to their software stack.
