With $170K in added profit and $30K in recruiting savings, AidQuest’s human-powered engagement tools are redefining growth for home care agencies.

BURLINGAME, Calif., May 21, 2025 — Visiting Angels of Carlisle, a leading provider of senior home care services in Pennsylvania, has significantly increased profitability and streamlined caregiver recruitment after adopting AidQuest’s Human-Powered Live Chat and SCHEDULE+ solutions. Over 24 months, the agency generated an additional $170,000 in net profit, hired caregivers who provided thousands of hours of care, and cut recruiting costs by $30,000 annually — all while enhancing the experience for families and applicants alike.

Faced with the challenges of high advertising costs and competition for qualified caregivers, Visiting Angels of Carlisle turned to AidQuest to engage website visitors in real time. The agency deployed AidQuest’s Human Live Chat, staffed by professional chat agents who interact directly with prospective clients and caregivers. These agents provide instant answers, collect detailed intake information, and schedule consultations and interviews using SCHEDULE+, AidQuest’s concierge appointment-setting tool.

“AidQuest has been a remarkable solution to help our agency grow and hire new recruits,” said Richard Ruda, Director and Owner of Visiting Angels of Carlisle. “The addition of a human live chat interface on our website has had a significant impact — an additional $170K of profit plus thousands of hours of care provided by the caregivers hired from AidQuest applicants.”

In addition to recruitment gains, AidQuest’s client leads have directly contributed to a stronger bottom line and greater care delivery. Since starting with AidQuest, Visiting Angels of Carlisle has received 130 pre-screened client leads from AidQuest’s human-powered chat — converting many into active cases that generated $170,000 in net profit. These conversions translated into thousands of hours of care provided to seniors in need, enabling the agency to serve more families without increasing marketing spend.

“It’s been a game-changer for our growth efforts,” added Kristy Saphore, Senior Client Care Coordinator. “We’re saving money, getting better client and caregiver leads, and filling positions faster — all without relying on expensive job boards.”

AidQuest’s solutions now power over 700 home care agencies across the U.S. and Canada, enabling more than 1 million live human interactions and generating over 100,000 qualified leads. By combining real-time engagement with intelligent concierge scheduling, AidQuest is setting a new standard for how elder care providers grow and thrive in a digital-first world.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. , May 21, 2025 — We are excited to announce that The Systems Group has brought on a new investor into the Systems Spray-Cooled (SSC) business unit. David Brogdon is one of the founders of Bad Boy Mowers and he, along with his partners, have purchased a majority stake in Systems Spray-Cooled. The owners of The Systems Group, Lee & Kyle Morgan, retained 35% ownership of Systems Spray-Cooled and it will continue to be operated as part of The Systems Group. Scott Ferguson, VP & GM of SSC, is also now an owner.

David is a seasoned leader and has experienced all phases of business growth from startup to highly successful, founder-led businesses, including Bad Boy Mowers, Platinum Metal Works, Conveyor Technology, Inc. and now Systems Spray-Cooled among others. He has served in the roles of CFO, President, and VP of Sales & New Products, being recognized by Arkansas Business as CFO of the Year in 2015 in the Large Private Company category.

This investment from David and his partners is a strategy to be able to invest more in global growth while still supporting our domestic customer base. Historically SSC has been predominantly USA based, but as the steel industry converts from basic oxygen furnaces (BOFs) to electric arc furnaces (EAFs), the world is adopting the safer Spray-Cooled™ technology over the much riskier pressurized cooling methods of the EAF. With current projects ongoing in Europe, Mexico, South America, and Africa, this investment will allow us to accelerate our mission of ‘Making Meltshops Safer’.

Spray-Cooled™ was invented by steel makers who did not want to continue working next to the dangerous conditions presented by pressurized cooling on their EAF. EAFs cooled by pressurized technology can throw tremendous amounts of water into the furnace and cause catastrophic explosions. Spray-Cooled™ technology removes high pressure water from the hot face of the furnace, only allowing a small trickle of water into the furnace in an upset condition. Spray-Cooled™ technology has also proven to have much better uptime than competing technologies, saving mills millions of dollars per year. Finally Spray-Cooled™ has now been proven to keep more heat in the furnace than pressurized cooling thus being a greener, energy saving option.

Headquartered in Smyrna, TN, Systems Spray-Cooled is a division of The Systems Group, a diverse collective focused on fabrication, plant maintenance, products and construction in the steel and metals industries. The company continues to lead through its commitment to innovation, teamwork, excellence, customer service and above all, its dedication to safety.

TORONTO, May 20, 2025 – Keep, Canada’s first all-in-one financial platform built exclusively for small businesses, today announced a C$108 million in new funding as it emerges from stealth mode. The funding includes C$33 million in equity financing led by Tribe Capital, a C$71 million credit facility from Coventure (Treville), and a C$4 million venture debt line from Silicon Valley Bank. This investment will accelerate Keep’s mission to solve critical cash flow and operational challenges faced by Canada’s 3 million small businesses.

Canada’s $500B+ small business banking market remains dominated by legacy banks offering outdated software, subpar customer service, and rigid underwriting processes that cripple small businesses’ ability to flourish. Keep addresses this gap by serving both established businesses seeking a better experience and entrepreneurs traditionally overlooked by conventional banks.

While fintech innovators like Brex, Mercury, and Ramp have transformed small business banking in the US market, Canadian entrepreneurs have lacked similar options. Keep is bringing this financial revolution north of the border with solutions specifically designed for Canadian tax systems, banking regulations, and business needs.

“Traditional banks have failed Canadian entrepreneurs for too long,” said Oliver Takach, Keep’s Co-founder and CEO. “We’re building the financial operating system that Canada’s small businesses actually need – one that provides the technology, tools, and services to help them thrive.”

Takach speaks from experience. As a two-time Y Combinator founder who bootstrapped a business to C$2M revenue in 2019, he faced the same financial hurdles that plague Canadian entrepreneurs. “Keep was born from my own frustration with fragmented systems and banking inefficiencies,” Takach explained. “We’re building what I desperately needed back then.”Keep’s integrated platform includes Canada’s first fintech business credit card, automated expense management, multi-currency accounts, and flexible global bill pay – all designed to eliminate the fragmented, fee-heavy solutions that burden business owners today.

“With Keep, we’ve cut our financial admin time by 80%,” said Glen Napier, CEO of James G Armour & Co. “The integration of their products was seamless and helped us double our revenue in just six months. What used to take weeks with traditional banks now happens instantly.”

In 2024 alone, Keep experienced substantial growth crossing C$20 million in annualized revenue, less than 2 years after going live. Keep also achieved over 300% net dollar retention, reflecting exceptional customer satisfaction and has onboarded over 3,000 SMBs across a diverse mix of industries.

“Keep’s incredible growth and product adoption is far beyond what we see in high growth companies at their stage today,” said Arjun Sethi, Co-Founder and Partner at Tribe Capital. “We’re excited to support Keep as it redefines how businesses manage operations and cash flow, empowering them with smarter, more flexible financial solutions.”

Looking ahead, Keep is well positioned to become the financial backbone for Canadian entrepreneurs. “By 2027, we aim to serve 100,000 small businesses across Canada, helping them save over quarter billion dollars in fees annually,” said Takach. “This funding brings us one step closer to our ultimate goal: ensuring that no Canadian entrepreneur’s vision is constrained by access to fair, flexible financial services.”

The funding round attracted strong participation from both existing and new investors, including Rebel Fund, Liquid2 Ventures, Cambrian, and Assurant Ventures. Notable individual investors include founders and executives from fintech leaders such as Robinhood, Venmo, Stripe, Plaid, Chime, Coinbase, Ramp, and Alloy.

—With meaningful participation from Rebuild Capital, the investment and newly appointed leadership positions VERO to accelerate product innovation, scale operations, and deepen market traction—

NEW YORK, May 20, 2025 — VERO—the modern screening and leasing platform for owners and renters—today announced a significant growth equity round co-led by Fifth Wall and Sunriver Capital Partners, with meaningful participation from Rebuild Capital. This strategic partnership brings together leading firms to distinctly bolster VERO’s position in the market. The capital will enable the company to accelerate product development, enhance go-to-market initiatives, and solidify its role as the foundational layer within the modern property tech stack — optimizing the owner and renter experience. This round follows VERO’s $9M Series B, led by Fifth Wall, which closed in April 2023.

“VERO sits at one of the most critical junctures in the renter journey — right at the point where real, verifiable information enters the system. That moment isn’t just about screening; it sets the stage for everything that follows, from insurance and deposit alternatives to the move-in experience,” shared Magnus Vik, Co-President & Chief Operating Officer, Fifth Wall. “VERO isn’t a point solution, it’s the gateway to an entire ecosystem. We’re thrilled to double down on our investment in VERO and look forward to supporting them as they continue redefining how the industry serves owners and renters.”

As VERO enters its next chapter, Travis Gibson has joined the company as Chief Technology Officer. An early engineer at Marqeta—the global leader in modern card issuing—Gibson played a pivotal role in scaling the company’s Digital Banking product suite through hypergrowth and IPO. He later founded Proper, a Y Combinator-backed FinTech startup, which was acquired by Intuit in March 2024. More recently, Gibson has been focused on helping public companies modernize their legacy tech stacks and elevate overall product performance.

Gibson joins a seasoned leadership team that includes Jamey Rosamond, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Sunriver, who now serves as Chief Executive Officer of VERO. Rosamond brings more than two decades of experience operating and investing in high-growth companies across the real estate tech, insuretech, and construction tech sectors. Prior to founding Sunriver, Rosamond served as Chief Operating Officer of RentPayment.com, leading the company through its acquisition by MRI Software, and before that as Chief Operating Officer of RadPad, which was acquired by Priority Technology Holdings. Rounding out the team is Jeff Cate, VERO’s Chief Financial Officer, who brings deep expertise in finance and operations, having held senior roles at Appspace, Hayman Capital Management, and Atlas Capital.

“With a proven track record of building and scaling category-defining financial products, leading high-performance engineering teams, and driving innovation across both startups and enterprise environments, Travis brings the vision and technical depth to accelerate VERO’s next wave of product growth,” stated Copley Broer, Co-Founder & Managing Partner at Sunriver. “This significant capital infusion—combined with a best-in-class leadership team and a robust pipeline—positions VERO to capitalize on its momentum and solidify its status as the category leader of choice for owner-operators.”

Lou Baugier—VERO’s founding Chief Executive Officer—will continue to support the company as a Senior Advisor, helping to guide its mission and long-term vision. Under Baugier’s leadership, VERO evolved from an early-stage startup into a trusted partner to several of the top 10 property management companies in the U.S. His transition marks a natural evolution as the company enters its next phase of growth. Supporting this next chapter, VERO has strengthened its Board of Directors with the addition of Vik, Broer, and Jeremy Kaner, Founder and Managing Partner of Rebuild Capital.

VERO’s platform has become increasingly valuable to many of Fifth Wall’s Limited Partners operating across the single-family and multifamily sectors. Kristy Simonette, Senior Vice President of Strategic Services and Chief Information Officer at Camden Property Trust, said, “As the industry moves past favorable cap rate dynamics, success now relies on execution and partnering with platforms that deliver measurable results. We constantly evaluate every partner based on ROI, and VERO stands out. It streamlines our leasing process, catches fraud early, and ensures we place the right residents in our apartment homes. It’s essential in today’s operating environment.”

VERO is a purpose-built platform designed to streamline residential leasing by mitigating risk, accelerating leasing velocity, and consolidating fragmented vendor relationships. In a market where owners and operators often rely on incomplete risk proxies, and applicants face outdated, invasive processes, VERO offers the modern, centralized solution that works for both sides of the lease.

As the first and only platform to fully automate the verification of prior residency and applicant qualifications, VERO eliminates manual workflows while improving accuracy, compliance, and operational efficiency. By unifying every step of the leasing process—from screening to signing—into one fraud-proof system, VERO helps increase net asset value, reduce risk, and deliver a faster, more transparent experience for both property teams and renters. Today, VERO is live across a rapidly growing footprint of properties, has flagged tens of thousands of fraudulent applications, and has screened hundreds of thousands of applications — a testament to the accelerating demand for modern leasing infrastructure.

The full-stack growth infrastructure for internet entrepreneurs—FanBasis is now backed by Left Lane Capital and leading internet investors

MIAMI, May 20, 2025 — FanBasis, an end-to-end ecosystem powering digital businesses, today announced a $20 million Series A funding round led by Left Lane Capital, with participation from notable celebrities and internet entrepreneurs Ryan Serhant, The Sidemen (via Upside Ventures), Gerard Piqué, and Connexa Capital.

FanBasis is redefining how creators build, manage, and grow high-margin, expertise-based businesses online. The platform unifies payments, fulfillment, course and community hosting, CRM, customer engagement, and business operations into one seamless tool—replacing the fragmented stack that most internet entrepreneurs rely on today. With FanBasis, creators can monetize and deliver in one place, operating with the sophistication of a full-scale business, not just a content channel.

“Creators and internet entrepreneurs don’t just need software—they need a platform that acts as a growth partner,” said Yash Daftary, Founder and CEO of FanBasis. “Today’s creators are building real businesses, and they need infrastructure that moves as fast as they do. FanBasis gives them that foundation. With this funding, we’re doubling down on our mission to power a new class of internet entrepreneurs—people turning expertise, community, and content into scalable, durable companies.”

From Content to Companies: The New Operators of the Internet Economy

The creators building on FanBasis span far beyond traditional influencers—they’re internet educators, consultants, course creators, and founders monetizing specialized expertise. What unites them is the need for professional-grade infrastructure to support what are now full-scale online businesses. Whether you’re a growth marketer selling paid advertising services, a fitness coach running challenges, or a consultant launching a digital community, FanBasis gives you the tools to build an enduring company.

FanBasis is already trusted by thousands of top digital operators worldwide that generate tens of millions monthly through the platform. With GMV tripling in the last few quarters alone, it has become the platform of choice for creators who prioritize ownership of their audience, brand, and operations.

“The creator economy is no longer about side hustles—it’s about full-scale digital businesses,” said Matt Hobbs, CFO at FanBasis. “FanBasis has shown the industry what a modern creator platform for digital products and services should look like—a solution that gives entrepreneurs real ownership, operational clarity, and the ability to grow and manage everything in one place.”

A Growing Movement of High-Profile Backers

FanBasis’ investor lineup reflects its deep roots in internet culture and its ambition to shape the future of online entrepreneurship. Alongside Left Lane Capital, backers include Ryan Serhant, a top real estate entrepreneur and media personality; KSI, Vikkstar, Zerkaa, Miniminter & The Sidemen via Upside Ventures; and Gerard Piqué, an international footballer turned investor and operator.

“FanBasis has captured a powerful shift within the creator economy—the rise of knowledge-based entrepreneurs,” said Matthew Miller, Partner at Left Lane Capital. “While much of the industry has centered around social influencers, FanBasis is building the foundation for high-value creators who monetize their expertise through coaching, courses, and webinars. By focusing on this more enterprise segment, they are paving the way for a new generation of creators—those building real revenue streams around specialized skills and insights. Many FanBasis creators earn millions of dollars per year.”

Fueling Product Innovation and Global Reach

With this funding, FanBasis will accelerate its product roadmap, expand its team, and grow its international footprint. Key initiatives include:

• Launching revenue tools that transform how entrepreneurs package and sell expertise
• Building analytics that surface which customer touchpoints drive business growth
• Expanding fulfillment features that turn complex delivery into one-click operations
• Scaling global infrastructure to better serve businesses at every stage

“Our goal is to take the complexity out of running a digital business, so creators can stay focused on what they do best,” said Alisha Mody, Chief Product Officer at FanBasis. “This funding gives us the fuel to move faster and double down on what’s working—whether it’s smarter revenue tools, data-driven analytics, or one-click fulfillment systems. We’re building the infrastructure layer behind modern digital businesses, helping creators operate at the level their ambition demands. And we’re just getting started.”

About FanBasis
FanBasis is the all-in-one payment, fulfillment, and business infrastructure for internet entrepreneurs building digital businesses. Built for creators and internet-first businesses, FanBasis combines payments processing, fulfillment, course and community hosting, customer engagement, and business operation tools into one seamless platform.

Funding will accelerate development of customer-focused tools including AI integration, streamlined user onboarding, and growing customer success and sales teams to meet surging demand.

SEATTLE, May 20, 2025 — Moddule, the solution that integrates any logistics management system into a single white-labeled platform, today announced that it has raised an $1.5M pre-seed round. The new funding comes as demand for Moddule’s platform has skyrocketed; the company’s revenue has grown 6x since September 2024 and contract values have increased by as much as 11x in the first 3-6 months of a customers’ use of the platform.

Across the roughly $23B global supply chain management market, logistics service providers (LSPs) of all sizes struggle with integrating disparate transportation, freight, and warehouse management systems. This fragments operations and creates costly inefficiencies, delaying shipments and increasing costs to them, their customers, and consumers. Moddule’s entirely carrier-agnostic platform closes this gap, integrating seamlessly with any management system and sitting on top of a company’s tech stack to ensure LSPs can find their customer’s data and use it to better serve them.

“The last 5 years have shown that supply chain disruption and challenges are becoming the new normal. Having an integrated, reliable tech stack to easily find and utilize customer data is no longer a nice add-on feature; it’s a requirement to be successful,” said Hans Elmegaard, Co-founder and CEO of Moddule. “As the supply chain’s carrier-agnostic platform, this round means that more LSPs can make this a reality, especially smaller and midsize enterprises that often don’t have the resources for a global team or broader investment in supply chain technology.”

The round is led by Argon Ventures, with participation from Signal Ventures, Motion Ventures, Incisive Ventures, R7 Ventures, and Companyon. The new funding will be used to continue expanding the Moddule platform’s offerings, including streamlining customer onboarding, adding more user customization, and developing AI-powered integrations. Following outstanding growth over the past two quarters the company will also expand its operations and footprint. This will include growing its customer success and sales functions to provide more companies with full visibility of their supply chains in a nimble, cost-efficient way. 

“We want to work with companies and founders that are solving meaningful, systemic challenges in their fields. Moddule exemplifies this, using deep logistics experience to address the fragmented visibility of supply chains,” said Bob Mason, Co-founder and Managing Partner, Argon Ventures. “Moddule’s carrier-agnostic platform directly empowers its customers and its customers’ customers, redefining supply chain management for businesses of all sizes.”

“At Motion Ventures, we look for teams that blend deep sector expertise with transformative tech. Moddule’s rapid growth proves they’ve found the right market fit at the perfect time, integrating fragmented systems for actionable intelligence that unlocks new levels of strategic collaboration across the supply chain,” said Anders Vartdal, Investments, Motion Ventures. “We’re thrilled to back them as they redefine what efficient, customer-centric supply chains look like.”

“Through our time getting to know Moddule we saw their platform evolve. It can be onboarded easily and in good time but still deliver on all our various requirements as a Global Freight forwarder. It has become invaluable to our team,” said Adam Rake, Operations Manager at LSP Cory Brothers Limited, a subsidiary of VertomCory. “Their ability to bring unified, streamlined solutions speaks to the team behind it. Moddule is very much built by LSPs, for LSPs.”

Moddule co-founders Hans Elmegaard, Kasper Hansen, and Ben Jones set out on a mission to build a technology platform that addresses the real-world challenges faced by logistics and supply chain leaders. With over half a century of combined experience in the industry, they are focusing on what matters to these leaders: building relationships, maintaining trust, and consistently delivering on promises. The result is a carrier agnostic visibility tool that helps these professionals develop the most important strategic and personal aspects of their business, providing better value to customers and helping them grow their own book of business.

About Moddule® 

Moddule® is a supply chain software platform that unifies a logistics service provider’s internal systems, as well as third-party solutions, into a single, white-labeled platform.

The round accelerates Sweep’s agentic platform, giving enterprises the clarity and momentum to move faster.

NEW YORK, May 20, 2025 — Sweep, a leading agentic workspace for business systems, today announced $22.5 million in Series B funding led by global software investor Insight Partners with participation from Bessemer Venture Partners, both Sweep insiders. The funding will fuel continued product innovation, extend Sweep’s agentic layer across platforms like Salesforce and HubSpot, and support growth across engineering, go-to-market, and customer success teams. By embedding intelligence directly into these systems, Sweep enables companies to maximize their platform investments without adding headcount or relying on outside services.

As AI accelerates the disruption of operational infrastructure, go-to-market teams and their leadership risk falling behind by clinging to the status quo—relying on outdated tools and reactive workflows that stall growth. Trusted by industry leaders like LG Electronics, Mass General Brigham, Brex, NBC Sports, Exiger, and Wix, Sweep combines agentic AI with a dynamic visual workspace, giving revenue and operations teams the clarity, control, and adaptability they need to keep systems continuously aligned and evolving in real time.

In the era of AI, Sweep has been engineered for what’s next. This round positions the company to meet rising demand for systems that can learn, adapt, and scale intelligently. By providing radical transparency, real-time analysis, and precision accuracy, Sweep’s technology offers a strategic opportunity to enterprise leaders looking to stay a step ahead.

“AI has completely reset the field—for systems teams, revenue leaders, and executives—yet too many organizations are still running last year’s playbook, and they know that means they’re already behind,” said Ido Gaver, co-founder and CEO of Sweep. “Our customers never have to worry about that gap. With Sweep, GTM systems are adaptive, learning, and fast. Our agentic workspace delivers instant clarity and self–evolving workflows, keeping customers permanently ahead of whatever comes next.”

Sweep’s agentic layer continuously monitors metadata across systems including Salesforce and HubSpot, with upcoming support for Marketo, NetSuite, SAP, and Snowflake. It then flags issues before they cascade and recommends or implements improvements in real time. Teams gain shared visibility, faster iteration, and operational clarity without waiting on tickets or audits.

Dylan Hughes, GTM Business Systems Lead at Brex—a modern spend platform trusted by over 30,000 companies—shared the impact Sweep has had on their operations: “As an enterprise committed to continuous innovation, we needed a system that could keep pace—and Sweep has done more than that. Its intelligent agents surface friction points before they become bottlenecks, and the visual workspace makes cross-functional collaboration seamless. Sweep has elevated our Systems team from a support function to a strategic driver of growth.”

“Agentic AI is the next foundational shift in enterprise software, and Sweep is helping define what that looks like,” said Jeff Horing, Co-founder and Managing Director at Insight Partners. “Sweep is going beyond workflow automation by building an intelligent, adaptive layer that keeps GTM systems aligned, efficient, and ready for what comes next. They’re quickly becoming the new standard for enterprises.”

Adam Fisher, Partner at Bessemer Venture Partners added, “The market is flooded with AI claims, but Sweep’s approach to agentic AI is grounded in real operational intelligence. They bring both the context and control needed to drive business agility and sustained growth.”

Sweep’s suite of agents currently includes:

• Process Agents – uncover bottlenecks and prioritize high-impact changes.
• Monitoring Agents – detect misalignment, broken logic, and governance risks.
• Documentation Agents – autogenerate and maintain real-time, auditable system documentation.
• User Support Agents – deliver contextual support to Salesforce users, improving adoption and reducing admin load.

Don Heikka, Director of Enterprise Systems at SailPoint—an identity security leader serving thousands of global enterprises—shared how Sweep accelerated critical internal automation without burdening engineering teams: “Sweep was instrumental in allowing us to complete a significant project dependent on analysis of a business process and dependent fields, and automation supporting this change without having to bring on additional resources or impact our current development cycle. Additionally, Sweep has allowed us to automate and administer our notification process again without having to use our development resources.”

The experience of customers like Brex and SailPoint reflects a broader shift in how companies are harnessing advancements in AI— not just to automate tasks, but to enable systems that think, adapt, and move in step with the business. By embedding intelligence at the system level, Sweep empowers teams and transforms GTM operations into a living layer of clarity and control. As the agentic AI era accelerates, Sweep gives companies the infrastructure they need to evolve in real time, eliminate friction before it starts, and stay ahead. To learn more, visit www.sweep.io.

NEW HAVEN, Conn., May 20, 2025 —  Adaptation Ventures today announced the official launch of the nation’s first angel group exclusively focused on early-stage disability and accessible technology startups. This pioneering initiative aims to unleash innovation in one of the world’s largest and most overlooked markets, supporting entrepreneurs who are building transformative solutions to prevent disability and for the 1.7 billion people with mobility impairments, 430 million with disabling hearing loss, 285 million with visual impairments, and billions more with neurological and other conditions, so that they can live their best and most independent life.

A Market Ripe for Innovation and Impact

Nearly everyone will benefit from adaptive or assistive technology at some point in their lives. The global market for assistive technology is projected to reach $31.22 billion by 2030, powered by advances in artificial intelligence, digital infrastructure, and rising consumer demand for accessible products and services. With over $18 trillion in disposable income just among people designated as having a disability and their families, and a demonstrated 9x return on every dollar spent on assistive tech, the sector represents both a profound impact opportunity and a compelling investment thesis.

Despite the surge in mission-driven capital for women, climate, and underrepresented founders, there has been no dedicated angel group for disability and accessible tech startups –

until now.

INDIANAPOLIS, May 20, 2025 — Orthodontic Details, the leading orthodontic supply ordering platform, today unveiled Details Dots, a user-friendly inventory management tool that gives practices easy control over supplies. Unlike traditional inventory management solutions, Details Dots requires no additional equipment, and is integrated directly into the Details ordering platform.

“I swore we wouldn’t build an inventory management product,” said Details Co-Founder Nick Wangler. “Not unless we could do it without practices needing expensive scanners, a training manual, and tons of staff time.”

Existing inventory management solutions typically require practices to buy physical scanners, manually add each product, scan individual products in and out, and keep an obsessive process in place – all adding to the workload of busy clinical staff members.

“My staff and I shared with Nick what we wanted in an inventory management system, and two weeks later he flew to our office to get feedback on what their team had created,” shared orthodontist Nicole Scheffler, DDS, MS. “For years, I’ve wished something like Details existed, and so to see it coming together firsthand, and have the opportunity to directly add to its development is awesome.”

Details Dots was created based on interviews with orthodontic practices, as well as the experience of Details’ VP of Practice Success, Carrianne Garrison. “When I was at Smile Doctors, I spent countless hours in the trenches, helping hundreds of offices improve their inventory management process. So, we built the tool I would have killed to have!”

Here’s how it works: Because the Details system already knows what products a practice orders, staff can easily select which products they want to track, and print a “Details Dot” for each of them. Each Dot includes basic information about that product, as well as a custom QR code which can be scanned by any smartphone or iPad.

When products are removed from storage, staff simply scan the Details Dot, which opens that product in Details. Staff can see how many are still “on-hand,” quickly deduct the number they’re taking, and move on with their day. Once a product is removed from back storage, it’s no longer considered on-hand.

If the on-hand number is approaching the “minimum” set by the practice, the interface turns yellow, indicating low stock, and red when they’re out of stock. The staff member can quickly reference their typical order size, and add more of that product to the cart with a tap. Visuals of how this works can be viewed on the company’s website.

“You simply scan, tap, and relax,” shared Details’ Co-founder Jeff Biggs, DDS, MS. “Scan the Dot, tap to indicate how many you’re taking, and then relax knowing the system will alert you when you’re running low.”

“Finding the balance between staying fully stocked without overordering (and overspending) is mission critical in a practice,” orthodontist Alexandra Chamberlain-Umanoff, DDS, MS added. “Being able to track usage and spending data, while also anticipating future growth is tricky – you really need a system like this that’s easy to understand and update for the entire team.”

Practices can also set on-hand minimums, maximums, and current inventory counts using an easy-to-use interface within the Details ordering platform. When new products arrive, staff simply tap on that order in their Delivery Checklist to indicate the order arrived, updating the on-hand inventory automatically.

“What good is an inventory management solution if staff doesn’t use it?” shared orthodontist Andy Sarpotdar, DDS, MS. “Before Details, we’d tried the traditional scanning systems, and old-school processes, but none of it was sustainable. When we joined Details, I shared that inventory management would be a natural next step, and I love what they’ve created – this is what I wanted all along.”

For those practices already using a “tag” system, where a product tag is taken from storage and given to ordering staff when it’s time to reorder, Dots makes the process even easier. No manual tag creation is required, simply use the Dots as your tags, and ordering staff can simply scan the Dot to reorder.

“We’ve not reinvented the wheel,” shared Biggs. “We simply listened to our customers and created a solution that solves the pain they felt in their practice. That’s one of the joys of being a technology company – we can listen for pain, quickly create solutions, and then roll those solutions out to customers rapidly.”

Details Dots and the integrated inventory management system are included in current Details members’ subscription at no additional charge. Details’ members who purchase an annual subscription will also receive a complimentary iPad for managing inventory. Members will also receive complimentary inventory management training for their staff, which can be scheduled in the new “Inventory” tab in their Details account.

New Details members can also receive the inventory system and training at no additional cost for a limited time.
