Lazo is the all-in-one platform built for LATAM founders expanding to the US.

Unlike generic US-only tools, Lazo understands the cross-border complexity that LATAM founders face: multi-currency operations, local tax obligations, investor-ready financials, and cap table management — all in one place, in your language. Backed by Google for Startups, AWS, EY, Endeavor, and Tampa Bay Wave. Trusted by 1,000+ founders across Latin America and the US.

Levvo is an AI-powered WhatsApp operations platform built for businesses that manage customer conversations at scale. Many companies rely on WhatsApp for sales and support, but as teams grow, conversations become difficult to assign, monitor and organize. Important messages are missed, managers lose visibility and repetitive work slows everyone down. Levvo helps businesses centralize conversations, intelligently route chats, assign work to the right people and give managers real-time visibility without changing how teams already use WhatsApp. Our platform combines shared inboxes, AI-powered routing, conversation insights and operational analytics to help sales and customer-facing teams respond faster, collaborate more effectively and spend less time on manual coordination. We're building practical AI that solves operational problems instead of adding complexity. Every feature is designed to reduce repetitive work, improve team efficiency and help businesses deliver better customer experiences. Built for companies across Latin America and beyond, Levvo is fully remote and focused on creating software that makes everyday business communication simpler, faster and more organized.
