Why We Invested in Tangled

AI is transforming how software gets built. But we believe the most profound shift won't come from AI writing code, it will come from rethinking how developers and AI agents collaborate on code together.The platforms we rely on today were designed for a world where humans wrote code, opened pull requests, and reviewed each other's work. That world is changing fast. AI-assisted coding has led to nearly a 50% increase in professional developers over the last three years, and autonomous agents are beginning to generate, review, and test code at a scale today's platforms were not built to handle.

AI is rapidly becoming one of the most important technological shifts of our time. And while it’s disrupting everything from consumer apps to productivity tools, we believe the most meaningful impact will come from empowering the institutions that hold society together - governments, municipalities, and public agencies - to deliver better services, improve decision-making, and support citizens more effectively.

Why we invested in Willo

The history of electronics is a story of cutting cords. We've liberated data from wires with Wi-Fi. We've untethered communications with cellular networks. But power, the most fundamental requirement for any device, has remained physical. Chargers, cables, docking stations, and alignment pads. Every robot, every warehouse drone, every piece of industrial equipment is ultimately leashed to an outlet or limited by battery life.

The tide is going out in AI

As intelligence becomes cheap and capital becomes scarce, only companies with real structural moats will survive the coming AI reckoning.

Why We Invested in Sumary

Two forces are reshaping the landscape: AI and regulation. The EU’s VAT in the Digital Age (ViDA) will make digital invoicing and reporting mandatory by 2030, forcing millions of companies to modernize. At the same time, AI can now automate most bookkeeping and reconciliation tasks, and adapt to local accounting and taxation rules and logic. Together, they’ve opened a rare window for new entrants.
