Supernova raises $9.2 million to bring vibe-coding to professional product teams

Supernova launches Supernova Portal, an enterprise-grade vibe-coding platform that vastly accelerates the product development lifecycle, from ideation until final handoff to developers

Trusted by global brands like Air France, KLM, Kraft Heinz, Paramount, and Mozilla, Supernova will use Series A funding to accelerate product development and expand rapidly in the United States and around the world

PRAGUE and NEW YORK, Sept. 30, 2025 — Supernova, a platform uniting design, code and product to streamline digital teamwork, is announcing Supernova Portal, an enterprise-grade vibe-coding tool that empowers teams across all phases of product development, from ideation to delivery. The company also closed a $9.2 million Series A funding round to expand go-to-market efforts in the United States and across the globe. Portal is built on Supernova’s robust design system platform, trusted by hundreds of companies including Air France, KLM, Kraft Heinz, Paramount, and Mozilla to speed up product design and development.

“Product development is too slow and too complex, and it’s holding back innovation,” said Supernova CEO Jiri Trecak. “As an engineer and product leader, I’ve seen firsthand how silos and bottlenecks grind teams to a halt. We’ve spent nearly a decade building an enterprise-grade platform with some of the world’s most trusted companies – unifying design with code and supercharging it with AI – so teams can move from idea to production faster than ever, without abandoning the tools and processes they already rely on.”

Introducing Supernova Portal: AI-powered product development on one platform

For years, product teams have struggled with stretched-thin resources, endless back-and-forth between roles, documentation that drifts out of sync, and the constant challenge of selling ideas to stakeholders. Emerging trends like vibe-coding have offered partial relief, but none have integrated seamlessly into enterprise workflows – until now.

Supernova Portal brings the entire product lifecycle onto one platform and supercharges it with AI. Unlike tools like Lovable and v0 that focus only on rapid prototyping, Portal integrates with enterprise processes and maintains design system consistency from idea to code. With Portal, teams can:

  • Transform ideas into complete product packages: Automatically generate PRDs, prototypes, and business cases, all synced to the codebase.
  • Keep docs in sync: Update one document and Portal automatically reflects changes everywhere.
  • Eliminate busywork with AI agents: Chat with AI agents that can handle manual tasks like updating requirements, syncing documentation, and resolving inconsistencies.
  • Maintain standards automatically: Every output aligns with design systems, requirements, and brand guidelines.
  • Plug into existing workflows: Portal connects with Figma, GitHub, VSCode, and more to seamlessly integrate with the tools teams already use.

Battle-tested by global brands, built for global scale

Supernova was founded in 2018 by CEO Jiri Trecak and COO Oskar Koristka, who previously built platforms and apps for the U.S. and Australian governments and other global enterprises. Frustrated by disconnected tools and fragmented data, they created Supernova to simplify design-to-code handoffs. Since then, the company has grown into a platform that unites the entire product development process. In 2019, Supernova became the first Czech startup accepted into Y Combinator.

Over the past seven years, Supernova has cultivated a loyal global customer base that includes some of the world’s most respected companies. Today, it powers hundreds of enterprise organizations – including Fortune 500 leaders – and has tripled both its user base and revenue in the past year. With its Series A, the company will establish a U.S. headquarters and significantly scale go-to-market operations in the U.S. and across the globe.

“We are proud to work together with Supernova, a company poised to define the future of product development,” said David Weng, CEO of Taiwania Capital. “Their unique knowledge architecture unifies design systems and code in an AI-powered platform that goes beyond prototyping, revolutionizing the entire product development lifecycle. Our investment is also a strategic partnership to accelerate Supernova’s expansion in Asia.”

“We invested in Supernova because it tackles one of the most painful and costly gaps in product development-design-to-code translation, especially in legacy systems,” said David Polach, general partner at J&T Ventures. “By automating routine design changes, Supernova frees up engineering teams to focus on high-value work, while scaling both team efficiency and client impact.”

“Supernova is doing for product development what Figma did for design: giving teams a single place to collaborate and move fast,” said Tomáš Obrtáč, general partner at KAYA VC. “The trust of such a significant number of international enterprises proves the strength of their vision. Central and Eastern Europe has a track record of producing founders who pair deep technical expertise with sharp commercial instincts, and Supernova is one of the most exciting examples of that.”

Supernova’s Series A is led by Taiwania Capital, known for helping companies expand globally, with participation from J&T Ventures, Reflex Capital, and existing backers Credo Ventures, EQT Ventures, Kaya, Wing VC, and Y Combinator.

Eve Raises $103 Million at $1 Billion Valuation to Help Plaintiff Firms Deliver Justice Through AI Transformation

Spark Capital Leads Series B Round as Eve Defines What It Means to Be an AI-Native Law Firm

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 30, 2025 — Eve, the AI platform transforming how plaintiff law firms deliver justice, today announced it has raised $103 million in Series B funding at over a $1 billion valuation. The round was led by Spark Capital, with participation from existing investors Andreessen Horowitz, Lightspeed Venture Partners, and Menlo Ventures.

Since its Series A round in January 2025, Eve has experienced unprecedented growth. The company has added over 350 new firms as customers in 8 months, bringing its total customer base to over 450 top firms, and making Eve one of the fastest-growing legal tech companies ever. The platform now processes more than 200,000 legal cases annually and has helped firms collectively recover over $3.5 billion in settlements and judgments.

Winning with AI

For plaintiff firms, winning means securing justice—justice for injured clients, for employees wronged by corporations, and for communities facing overwhelming odds. But plaintiff firms are strained by heavy workloads, growing case backlogs, and well-resourced defense teams.

“This is why we built Eve,” said Jay Madheswaran, CEO and co-founder of Eve. “Plaintiff firms fight for fairness against corporations with endless resources. This is no longer about keeping pace; it’s about seizing the upper hand. Firms must become AI-Native, reimagining their entire practice to outmaneuver the competition and deliver transformative wins for their clients. With this funding, we’ll arm them to do just that.”

AI Transformation for Plaintiff Firms

“To build the most advanced legal AI, we assembled an unparalleled team of AI engineers and legal experts,” said Madheswaran. “We gave them a singular mission: build a platform architected for the breakneck speed of modern AI.”

The result is Eve. Eve’s architecture is designed to be agile, allowing it to harness the latest breakthroughs from the AI industry, rigorously validate them for legal accuracy, and deploy them to clients through an easy-to-use interface and workflows faster than anyone else. Eve isn’t a static tool; it’s a continuous innovation platform.

This relentless technical advancement is backed by a dedicated client transformation team that ensures this power is tailored to a firm’s unique processes and values, making Eve a true extension of the firm. With Eve, the AI advantage doesn’t just happen once—it compounds over time, positioning firms to bring the best of their firm to their clients every time.

“We are standing on a massive shift in how law firms are run. From the bottom up, AI is going to be taking over and being a major part of your law firm,” said Mike Morse, founder of Mike Morse Law Firm. “For the last couple of years, AI was just for summarizing depositions and medical records, but it’s becoming so much more than that. And we’re weaving in AI, Eve, into everything we do.”

Customer Traction and Investment

Eve today serves over 450 of the most elite law firms in the nation, including Mike Morse Law Firm, The Law Offices of James Scott Farrin, Barrett & Farahany, Disparti Law Group, Frontier Law Center, Laurel Employment Law, and Hershey Law.

“Eve has transformed the way we work,” said Ryan Bliss, Partner & Head of Legal Technology at the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin. “We use it to streamline everything from medical summaries to settlement analysis memos, which frees up our attorneys to focus on strategy instead of paperwork.”

In the last year, firms have used Eve to achieve nuclear verdicts. Hershey Law won a $27 million settlement, and Geiger Legal Group won a $15 million case. Eve’s customers have been able to grow dramatically; some more than doubling their case capacity within a year of signing up for Eve.

“Eve represents exactly the kind of company we look for—one that’s fundamentally transforming how work gets done in a massive, traditional industry,” said James Kuklinski, General Partner at Spark Capital. “The legal industry has been ripe for this level of innovation, and Eve’s incredible traction serving hundreds of firms in less than two years since launching proves that plaintiff attorneys are ready to embrace AI-Native workflows. Jay and the team are building something much more important than efficiency tooling. They’re creating a new category of AI-Native law, raising the level of service that firms can offer to an increasing number of clients.”

About Eve

Eve is a leading Legal AI platform for Plaintiff Law Firms. Eve is designed to handle the heavy lifting of legal cases, from intake to resolution, by providing tools to enhance productivity and streamline workflows across the entire case lifecycle.

Datawizz Raises $12.5M Seed Round to Make AI Efficient, Economical, and Sustainable

Founded by serial entrepreneur Iddo Gino, Datawizz is disrupting the broken LLM paradigm with Specialized Language Models that deliver >85% cost savings and faster, more accurate AI.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 30, 2025Datawizz , the company pioneering Specialized Language Models (SLMs) as an alternative to large general-purpose LLMs, announces a $12.5M seed funding round led by Human Capital, with participation from BGV, 91VC, and others. The new capital will accelerate product development, expand the team, and fuel market entry across the U.S. and Europe.

Founded in 2025 by Iddo Gino, the entrepreneur who previously built RapidAPI into the world’s largest API marketplace, Datawizz addresses two critical challenges threatening the future of AI: unsustainable costs and inconsistent results.

“Companies spent $8.4B on API calls to LLMs in just the first half of 2025 – more than double the figure for all of 2024,” said Gino, Founder and CEO of Datawizz. “The pace of adoption is incredible. The challenge is that many applications have upside-down unit economics and deliver inconsistent results. Datawizz fixes this by replacing the massive generic models with smaller, Specialized Language Models that deliver faster, cheaper, and more accurate results.””Token costs for monolithic models break unit economics for many workloads” said Brian Blond, Investment Partner at Human Capital who will be joining Datawizz’s board. “Datawizz provides an elegant and essential solution that will become a core component of the AI stack, and we are thrilled to partner with them to build the next generation of AI”.

A New Paradigm: Specialized Language Models

While the AI industry has leaned heavily on increasingly large, general-purpose models, Datawizz is charting a different path. Its fully managed, end-to-end platform automatically profiles the organization’s AI requests, trains specialized expert models and automatically routes requests to them.

A company might have dozens of specialized models, each about 1,000 times smaller than a regular LLM, and trained to handle very specific requests. Datawizz routes every query to a specialized model best suited for the task, only defaulting to a general-purpose model when specialization isn’t available.

The results are transformative :

  • >85% Reduction in AI Costs: Drastically cutting expenditures on API calls.
  • 5-15x Improvement in Speed: Delivering faster, more responsive user experiences.
  • Enhanced Precision: Achieving more accurate and predictable results, especially when fine-tuned with human feedback.

Unlike today’s reliance on Big Tech providers, Datawizz builds models that are completely owned by the customer, running on-premises, on-device, or in private clouds—ensuring no data is shared externally and eliminating dependency on external APIs.

By 2030, Datawizz predicts that ~70% of AI traffic will be served by sub-5B parameter Specialized Models, with more than 50% of that traffic managed through its platform.

Datawizz was founded in 2025 by Iddo Gino, founder of RapidAPI. Based in San Francisco, the company is building the infrastructure for a sustainable AI future. Datawizz’s platform delivers efficient, economical, and reliable AI by replacing generic large models with Specialized Language Models that companies own and control.

Tato Raises $5M to Fix ERP Implementations with AI-Native Platform

Led by Canada’s first Microsoft Distinguished Enterprise Architect, Tato empowers system integrators to consistently deliver large-scale IT projects on time and on budget

MONTREAL, Sept. 30, 2025Tato, the AI-native project platform purpose-built for system integrators, today announced a $5 million Seed round led by Ridge Ventures, with participation from Myriad Venture Partners, Betaworks, RRE Ventures, and others. The funding will be used to scale the team as it continues to fix implementation problems that have crippled digital transformation for decades.

Since the 1990s , high-profile ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) disasters have tormented companies like Nike, Hershey, PG&E, Waste Management, and Hewlett-Packard. Many Fortune 500 businesses spend up to 5% of annual revenue—hundreds of millions or more—to license, implement, and support ERP solutions. However, by 2027, more than 70% of recent ERP projects will fall short of desired business goals. Up to 25% will fail entirely.

Tato bridges the gap between agentic AI and seamless ERP implementation. Its AI-powered solution facilitates massive IT projects featuring dozens of workstreams, hundreds of stakeholders, constant changes, and stringent deadlines and budgets. Like a trusted colleague, Tato captures communications from calls, chats, and project management apps. This data then enters a real-time knowledge base that keeps teams organized and proactively flags issues.

Tato is primarily used by system integrators (SIs) to help manage ERP implementations. It simplifies communication, team onboarding, risk management, and other challenges faced by system integrators.

“I spent years watching ERP projects fail, companies lose millions, people lose their jobs,” said Justin Delisle, Tato co-founder and CEO. “AI can finally give projects the memory and foresight they’ve lacked.”

Tato’s key product features include:

  • Capture and organize every interaction: Tato connects to meetings, chats, and project tools, automatically capturing activity and tagging it by participants, project references, and AI-driven analysis for accurate, secure organization.
  • Enterprise security built in: With single-tenant architecture and SOC 2 compliance, Tato offers enterprise-grade security, flexible deployment, and context-aware access for every team member.
  • Instant insights from project activity: Tato generates RAID logs, AI-assisted reports, and real-time summaries so teams stay informed and can track every decision.

“You couldn’t find a better team to transform ERP implementation,” said Akriti Dokania, Partner at Ridge Ventures. “Tato’s co-founders are domain experts and proven company- and product-builders. Justin is a globally recognized leader in the space. He speaks the language of system integrators stuck in ERP purgatory.”

Justin was Canada’s first Microsoft Distinguished Enterprise Architect and the youngest to receive the honor, one of 23 in the world at the time. His experience in enterprise IT consulting and project leadership, which includes the implementation of Microsoft Dynamics and other systems, spans more than a decade. Before founding Tato, Justin helped over 60 businesses implement ERPs.

Justin co-founded Tato with Head of Product Vlad Lokshin, a repeat founder who founded DarwinApps and Turtle, and Head of Go-to-Market Mathieu Chrétien, who helped scale Talent.com to more than $100 million in revenue.

Consulting firms like Gestisoft, Syntax, and Talan use Tato to keep IT projects on track. Tato decreased Gestisoft’s time spent on grunt work by 75% and reduced its team member onboarding time by 50%.

“We’re rolling out Tato across all of our projects,” said Frédérique Lacroix, Project Manager at Gestisoft. “We were skeptical at first, but the ability to instantly retrieve context from meetings we had weeks ago was a game-changer. What used to take days now takes minutes. Tato gives us back the time to focus on what matters, and in the end, the customer benefits most.”

Tato also works with enterprises such as Héroux Devtek, a landing gear manufacturer. Tato saved Héroux Devtek more than $500K by resolving scope disputes and many hours a week in efficiency.

“Working with Tato on our SAP ERP implementation was one of the best decisions we made,” said Michael Parke, IT Director at Héroux Devtek. “On a multi-site project spanning Canada, the US, the UK, and Spain, I couldn’t be everywhere at once. Tato automatically captured key details and decisions, even for meetings I missed, and acted as an unbiased third-party if any disputes arose. Tato’s visibility and recall are crucial for projects of this scale.”

About Tato

Founded in 2023, Tato is an AI-native project intelligence platform purpose-built to improve delivery of large-scale IT implementations, especially ERP projects. It captures all project communications, structures project data into a real-time knowledge base, and proactively surfaces risks, decisions, and updates across the project lifecycle.

Enchanted Rock Introduces ERT500™ and RockBlock™ Advanced Onsite Power Generation Technologies

New platforms increase power density, reduce emissions, provide utility-grade resiliency and support the grid, all without the constraints of diesel.

HOUSTON, Sept. 30, 2025 — Enchanted Rock, the recognized leader in power resiliency, today unveiled its next-generation dispatchable natural gas systems built to help critical industries secure the power they need with greater uptime, faster deployment, and utility-grade power. The new lineup includes modular RockBlock units, available from 1.5 to 3.5 MW with standard one-for-one diesel replacement capability and optional N+1 redundancy, and the new 500 kW ERT500 generator models — all designed to meet rising operational and sustainability demands. With a proven combined reliability of 99.999%, Enchanted Rock continues to set the standard for onsite power generation.

“For decades, diesel was the default backup system, but that era is ending,” said Allan Schurr, Chief Commercial Officer at Enchanted Rock. “The ERT500™ and RockBlock™ give customers cleaner, quieter onsite power with flexible demand-response, supporting both their operations and their communities. Fueled by underground natural gas, they offer reliable performance for a future that demands resilience and responsibility.”

Designed for data centers and other mission critical applications, the RockBlock™ series replaces large diesel generators with up to double the power density. With a footprint of 5.6 kW per square foot, the 2.5 MW RockBlock™ achieves nearly double the density of a 2.5 MW diesel unit at 2.9 kW per square foot. Built-in redundancy with the Reliability+ feature allows RockBlock™ to operate with a percentage of its power held in reserve, delivering reliable performance during unexpected demand or routine maintenance without oversizing site capacity. The system integrates with 480V infrastructure, requiring no changes to existing infrastructure.

The ERT500™ natural gas generator is the next evolution of Enchanted Rock’s proven platform, meeting or exceeding industry standards on key attributes such as power density, start time, transient management, and emissions. For example, it outperforms typical diesel generators by surpassing ISO 8528-5 G3 step-load requirements, delivering faster, more stable response to sudden load changes. With 500 kW ESP and 450 kW LTP/PRP in a compact 10′ x 8′ footprint, the ERT500™ combines modular scalability and flexible operating modes with ultra-low emissions. Integrated GraniteEcosystem™ controls collect 10x more data than previous models, enabling predictive maintenance and enhancing long-term reliability.

The ERT500™ and RockBlock™ are offered in two models: a standard low-emissions unit and an advanced CARB-DG emissions compliant version for deployment in the most stringent air quality regions. Delivering up to 99% cleaner emissions than diesel, these systems enable facilities to maximize installed capacity and run hours without triggering costly and complex Title V air permits.

Additionally, the new models offer an Advanced Generator Power (AGP) rating. The AGP is the maximum power which a generating set is capable of delivering while supplying a variable or continuous electrical load during unlimited run hours. With this, Enchanted Rock will be able to dynamically adjust maintenance intervals based on load and duty cycles, while also allowing for prolonged operation at load in parallel with a utility.

In addition to performance gains, the ERT500™ and RockBlock™ systems are built with both operational convenience and community impact in mind. A unique vertical radiator air flow and emissions exhaust design reduces clearance needs and delivering natural gas via existing underground infrastructure eliminates diesel refueling challenges. Quieter operation reduces community noise complaints, while lower emissions remove runtime restrictions often faced by diesel-based generators.

All systems are supported by Enchanted Rock’s 24/7 staffed remote monitoring microgrid control center and predictive maintenance programs. Customers also benefit from the company’s vertically integrated services, combining technical expertise, custom engineering, turnkey installation and long-term service and monitoring.

By delivering fault-tolerant, dispatchable onsite generation that advances both operational continuity and sustainability objectives, Enchanted Rock continues to redefine the future of resilient onsite backup power.
