Infrawatch is building the world’s first real-time adversary infrastructure intelligence platform - turning the global internet into a live, high-fidelity map of malicious networks, proxies, and command-and-control servers before they’re ever used in attacks. Every day, Infrawatch scans the entire public IPv4 and IPv6 space, generating over 150 million actionable indicators. Our proprietary rule engine and enrichment pipeline transform raw internet telemetry into curated, analyst-ready intelligence that powers fraud prevention, threat detection, and national-scale defence. Existing tools are fragmented: broad but shallow, or narrow but blind. Infrawatch unifies them. We give defenders visibility and attribution across all categories of adversary infrastructure, enabling them to block threats at the infrastructure stage - not after the breach. Our mission is simple but urgent: to be the infrastructure intelligence source of truth that keeps enterprises, governments, and critical systems ahead of adversaries. Built by defenders, for defenders, Infrawatch delivers unmatched coverage, precision, and speed. From cybersecurity giants to government agencies, organisations rely on Infrawatch’s live data feeds, APIs, and platform to identify malicious infrastructure, prevent fraud, and accelerate investigations. We care deeply about clarity: in data, in design, and in purpose. Our analyst-first platform makes billions of events feel effortless to explore, with modern workflows and visualizations that help teams see faster, decide smarter, and act sooner. We’re a small, focused, and remote-first team of engineers and researchers obsessed with quality, performance, and craft. Together, we’re building the backbone of proactive defence, a system that turns chaos into signal and helps the world beat the adversary.

Bleap is on a mission to create a new financial system. 10x better, 10x cheaper. We are starting by introducing the world's first wallet connected debit card that lets you spend funds directly from any non-custodial wallet without having to off-ramp or lock/transfer your on-chain balance. You will also be able to create dedicated a virtual IBAN connected to your non-custodial wallet so that you can on-ramp with the best UX at the cheapest rates in the market. And finally, customers can transfer funds from their non-custodial wallets to their linked bank accounts or send to friends via WhatsApp. No friction. The foundation will be our off-chain collateralized stablecoins (starting with USD, EUR and GBP) that we’ll embed with real-world financial rails integrations (Visa, Mastercard, SEPA, SWIFT, FPS) to enable free and seamless movement between fiat and cryptocurrencies.

Ando is building AI-native workforce infrastructure for shift-based work, starting with highly accurate AI-generated demand forecasting and autonomous labor allocation. Labor is one of the largest and least modernized systems in the economy. Most workforce tools are static, rules-based, and UI-driven. They create schedules, but they do not understand demand, uncertainty, or real-world tradeoffs. The result is wasted labor, constant manual intervention, and unstable hours for workers. This is not a scheduling UI problem. It is a systems problem: forecasting under uncertainty, constrained optimization, feedback loops, and learning from noisy production data. Models must operate in the wild, adapt continuously, and balance business, worker, and operational constraints. Our core intelligence layer combines demand modeling, optimization, and human-in-the-loop signals to improve allocation decisions over time, compounding into a persistent labor graph across skills, availability, reliability, and performance.
