Kero builds real-time sports betting technology for sportsbook operators around the world. Our engine ingests live play-by-play sports data and produces continuously updating in-game betting markets, including micro bets, contextual markets, and player-driven props. In simple terms: we price the next meaningful moment in a game, whether that is the next pitch, shot, drive, field goal, possession, or player outcome. We operate at the intersection of sports, probability, trading, machine learning, and product. The hard part is not just building models; it is building models that work in real time, on messy sports data, under commercial and risk constraints, and that can be shipped into live betting products. We are a lean, distributed team serving a global market. Kero is an ideal place for people who love sports, think critically, take ownership, and want to help build the next generation of live betting experiences.

For the past decade, Namecoach has worked with universities, enterprises, and global platforms to help people pronounce names correctly across languages and cultures. And we built the largest verified pronunciation dataset of its kind, combining human recordings, phonetic transcription, and machine learning. We're now building Euphonia (euphonia.namecoach.ai), a pronunciation intelligence platform for voice AI. Voice agents are proliferating, but they all break on the same problem: names and out-of-vocabulary words. A patient relations agent mispronounces a drug name. An enrollment assistant butchers a student name. Voice agents lose trust the moment they get a word wrong, and the TTS providers building these models can't easily fix it. Our pronunciation data, verified by humans across languages for over a decade, is a critical proprietary asset which Euphonia turns into a drop-in pronunciation layer for any voice agent or TTS product. Universities, Fortune 500 enterprises, and major sports organizations rely on us today. We're now building the pronunciation layer voice AI needs tomorrow.

Cinchapi builds Operational AI that connects business knowledge, everyday tools, and autonomous agents so teams can focus on the work that needs their expertise. Our vision: where business runs itself. Based in Atlanta, we're building a platform that understands how a business operates and helps people and AI act on a shared understanding of its goals. Instead of requiring constant prompts and supervision, agents pursue ongoing objectives, coordinate work across systems, and adapt as conditions change. Our platform brings together three products: • Relay orchestrates multiple AI models, selecting the models and settings suited to the task and combining their contributions into one result. • Riff lets teams delegate ongoing responsibilities to ambient agents guided by goals and KPIs. • Knowledge connects scattered business information into a continuously updated company brain for people and agents. Relay is available now; Riff and Knowledge have waitlists. Together, they support a future where AI can be both a thought partner for expert work and an autonomous workforce for day-to-day operations. Learn more at cinchapi.com.
