Coding agents in the cloud don't work for majority of teams who require native capabilities; they lack XCode for iOS, Emulator for Android, Unity for game development teams. We are on a mission to cloudify every local development utility so that regardless of where it runs, your agent can compose an ideal set of capabilities on the fly so you don't need to run it on your laptop. Today, we provide remote services such as XCode, iOS & Android simulators to enable coding agents running in any sandbox to be able to build and iterate over mobile apps, too. Replit, Rork, Momentic, Minitap and more agent companies have built mobile development and testing experiences on Limrun platform. Coconote (Quizlet), SorceJobs (W25) and more companies with mobile apps use Limrun with their cloud agents, merging PRs without having to check out the code locally.

Wato gives AI agents shared memory, reusable workflows, connected tools, and living artifacts so work compounds across a team instead of disappearing into chat threads. Teams use Wato to give every agent access to trusted company context and turn useful runs into knowledge the next agent can build on.

flowscope is an AI-native consulting firm that uses agents to learn and document how businesses actually run: who touches what, where it stalls, what's pure repetition. Our agents redesign and automate those processes, shipping AI into production on the company's existing systems. In days, not months.

Armature helps companies monitor, analyze, and optimize how AI agents experience their products. What we do today: - Automated testing: We run complex sessions against your MCPs/CLIs across all major harnesses and models to catch broken workflows before your users do. - AX analytics & benchmarking: No more black boxes. We trace agent sessions to show you exactly what the model "thought", what context it missed, and why it failed. We measure your AX against competitors to ensure you remain the preferred platform for agents to use. - Auto-remediation: Our MCP lets your internal coding agents plug into Armature to autonomously fix your product's AX based on our run data. Our vision for tomorrow: Reaching full understanding of how agents use your product and how you can improve it is only step one. The next step is to provide the foundational infrastructure for the Agent Experience, powering agent-native revenue, lifecycle marketing, and customer support for the next generation of software.

Expanse unlocks wasted GPU capacity. We recover idle compute through three capabilities: resource prediction (right-sizing job submissions before they reach the scheduler), optimisation suggestions (code and config changes researchers can apply themselves), and failure prediction (catching jobs that will fail before they consume hours of GPU time). We’re four engineers. We ran HPC and GPU training workloads at the largest quant funds and national supercomputing centres. We faced this problem first hand and the only fix was to over-provision and burn millions. Ismaeel built the first multimodal HPC resource predictor as research at EPCC (Edinburgh’s Parallel Computing Centre), which beat every published baseline. This is the tool we wish we had.

Lightsprint is a collaborative platform for software teams to plan visually, preview live and ship with an army of cloud agents. Your whole team, including non-engineers, can now ship end to end reliably. The company is founded by Ben Ong, an AI investor who previously scaled AI products at SEA Group (NYSE: SE) and Temasek ($300B fund), Benedict Chan who was VP Engineering at Chainlink and CTO at BitGo (NYSE:BTGO), and Heng Hong Lee who built Facebook Messenger in 2013 and was Director of Engineering at Fazz (YC S17).

Pentagon is a workspace for your AI employees to communicate, coordinate, and get work done as a team.

Enterprise software implementation is broken, and it has been for decades. Every rollout, whether it's a traditional ERP or a new AI system, requires months of manual integration, configuration, and tuning done by armies of system integrators and forward-deployed engineers. Lab0 builds agentic systems that automate this layer, compressing months-long implementations into weeks.

Most B2B churn is preventable - most teams just see it too late. By the time a CSM notices, the champion has already quietly disengaged, key features went unadopted, and the renewal conversation is damage control. The dangerous part? The customer might still be logging in, but they've stopped using what actually matters. Userlens catches all of that months earlier. Our AI agents monitor every user at every account the way your best CSM watches your top five strategic accounts: - feature adoption - usage trends - champion engagement - sentiment shifts in Slack and Intercom - open support issues. When a signal hits (churn risk, renewal, expansion opportunity), Userlens doesn't just alert you. It builds the talking points and deck on top of your team's approved templates and playbook. If you have CSMs, Userlens makes every one of them your best. If you don't have one yet, Userlens runs your book like the best CSM money could buy.

Foaster is the AI-native consulting firm for AI transformation, powered by agents instead of armies of consultants. Companies are spending millions on AI tools, pilots, workshops, and roadmaps. But most confuse AI adoption with AI transformation. Adoption is buying tools. Transformation is understanding how work should change across every team, workflow, and role. Traditional consulting moves too slowly for that: a few interviews, a few workshops, a static roadmap, then the company is left to execute. Foaster uses AI agents to go much faster and much deeper. Agents interview employees at scale, map how work actually happens, and build in days a roadmap showing what should be automated, redesigned, or improved first. Then Foaster stays embedded to keep the transformation moving through adoption tracking, deeply personalized upskilling, and continuous follow-up. The result is the precision and scale of AI, with human experts brought in where judgment, expertise and implementation matter most.

Ritivel is an AI-native workspace for regulatory and medical writing teams at life sciences companies. Our AI agents draft CTDs, CSRs, INDs, and BLAs in minutes instead of weeks, helping drugs reach patients faster. Every month a drug is delayed from reaching the market costs pharma companies ~$45M in lost revenue and more importantly, delays treatment for thousands of patients who need it. Yet regulatory teams are stuck in a painful, months-long process: synthesizing thousands of pages of clinical data, hunting through SharePoint folders for the right documents, chasing colleagues for missing inputs, and manually drafting submissions. Ritivel deploys AI agents that transform how regulatory teams work. Our agents generate comprehensive first drafts directly in Microsoft Word, following FDA formatting requirements and pulling from your existing clinical data and prior submissions. Every data point includes citations linked back to the original source, so reviewers can verify with one click. Connected to SharePoint and Veeva, our agents automatically source the right documents. Integrated with Outlook, they handle reminder emails and follow-ups automatically. We're engineers who previously built AI copilots at Microsoft Research. After 50+ conversations with pharma professionals, we discovered the critical bottleneck in regulatory submissions and built Ritivel to solve it.

Corelayer is the AI-native platform for production software support, built for data-heavy, regulated industries like finance and healthcare. It continuously monitors alerts, logs, infrastructure, and underlying data for issues and uses agents to debug and suggest fixes. We're helping teams at companies ranging from growth-stage fintechs to S&P 500 financial institutions spend less time on support and more on high-leverage work.

Adaptional is building agentic AI for insurance claims. Claims are 75% of every dollar in the $1T insurance industry -- and one of the most under-optimized areas, still managed by adjusters working hundreds of files by hand. We're changing this with AI claims review agents, already deployed at some of the major P&C carriers. In the future, claims will be powered by an intelligence layer that manages files and escalates actions to human adjusters. Adaptional is building the AI system that will be the foundation for every claims department across P&C insurance.

Cyberdesk is the first self learning computer use agent for developers to automate desktop workflows. For example, one of our customers is building an AI agent for hospital patient intake, and they’re using us to automate an entire team of people manually clicking and typing into a desktop app to book appointments. We launched mid July, and our agent is already operating in production environments, creating appointments in electronic health record apps and processing files in legacy ERPs. We’ve built the first computer use agent that memorizes tasks and repeats them quickly while still adapting to unexpected changes on the screen. A good analogy is to how humans use computers: once we get used to an app, we use it much faster, while still adapting to random popups and crashes. This new paradigm for computer use will be needed by every company automating human workflows on computers. Mahmoud previously built robotic process automation solutions impacting 20K+ employees at a Fortune 100 company. He also built AI & ML solutions at Baylor College of Medicine Neuroscience & Texas Children's Hospital + co-published a paper at the Rice Networks Group. Alan is ex-NASA and previously dropped out to be the first founding engineer at a PearX startup. He is a second time founder, having previously built and scaled a consumer AI app to thousands of paying users. Computer-use agents will automate the $6T dollars spent on enterprise knowledge work and Cyberdesk will be the platform to power this. We’d love to talk with you! https://cal.com/mahmoud-al-madi-klrs5s/30min

Rimba integrates fragmented data — PDFs, Excel files, time-series, IoT sensors, equipment telemetry, and system performance data — to complete a workflow, such as populating a database, running analytics, and creating a report. Our software streamlines the entire journey from data capture to report creation for the physical world, starting with heavy industries such as renewables, oil & gas, supply chain, and chemicals. Legacy systems don't communicate, and critical operational data remains siloed. Rimba bridges that gap by connecting data from fragmented systems and structures — ERPs, SCADA, SharePoint, email, and more — to automate workflows, classify inputs, transform data, and improve data monitoring.

Mica's AI agents replace the data ops teams fixing bad data. When bad or missing data breaks the pipeline, and orchestration, retries, and monitoring fail, painful manual review work kicks in, pulling humans in to investigate and patch data issues across systems. Mica does what those humans do: gathering the right information from internal docs and external systems, reasoning across context, and resolving errors autonomously to get the pipeline moving again. The result: dramatically reduce time, cost, and operational drag as your data pipelines scale without scaling ops headcount. Mica turns judgment-heavy data fixes from a manual bottleneck into an automated background process with full auditability.
