BOSTON, Nov. 12, 2025 — Vend Park, the unified technology and operations company transforming how commercial real estate owners manage and monetize parking, today announced it has raised $17.5 million in Series A funding. The round was led by Blue Heron Capital, with participation from Nuveen’s Real Asset Ventures, Communitas Capital, and John McMahon, along with follow-on investments from Derive Ventures, Floating Point Capital, PagsGroup, Crossbeam, and others.

The funding will accelerate Vend’s expansion into major U.S. markets, advance its AI-powered product roadmap, and fuel hiring across sales, engineering, and customer success.

Vend replaces outdated operators and fragmented point solutions by combining AI with a world-class operations team to automate day-to-day management, eliminate inefficiencies, and unlock revenue trapped in outdated, fragmented systems and operating processes. Owners working with Vend typically see increases in Net Operating Income (NOI) of 30%, reduced operating costs of 30–50%, and deliver a seamless experience to their tenants and visitors.

“Parking has been running inefficiently for years, built on a dual-vendor model that splits responsibilities between a traditional operator and a third-party technology provider. This setup creates high costs for real estate owners with significant inefficiencies like fragmented systems across access, billing, and reporting, and a poor experience that every driver can relate to,” said Michael Miele, CEO of Vend Park. “Vend replaces that outdated structure with an AI-powered infrastructure that unifies technology and operations to drive NOI and deliver a seamless experience. With Nuveen as a new partner and this additional capital, we’re excited to scale into hundreds of premium properties nationwide.”

Vend has seen 35x growth in just 24 months, expanding from 3 cities to 15, while growing its customer base to include marquee CRE owners such as Nuveen, Jamestown, Federal Realty, and Harwood International.

“Vend is unlocking real value for real estate owners with a platform approach that blends operations and technology seamlessly,” said Brad Wilner, EVP at CBRE, who joins Vend’s board of directors as an operator. “This team is not just modernizing parking—they’re creating digital infrastructure for the built world.”

Customers echo that sentiment, pointing to measurable financial impact and a vastly improved driver experience across their portfolios. 

“Our extensive research on the changing landscape of the parking industry revealed a sector undergoing a fundamental transformation from traditional labor-intensive operations toward digital solutions,” said Jeanne Casey, Head of Real Asset Ventures at Nuveen. “Vend’s integrated technology and operations platform quickly proved it can drive significant value for real estate owners and capture market share. What differentiates Vend is their flexible approach to implementation, tailoring solutions to meet each property’s unique operational requirements and ensuring frictionless onboarding. Their approach makes it easy for us to work with them across a diverse set of assets.”

As the lead investor, Blue Heron Capital recognized the significant opportunity in modernizing an overlooked segment of the real estate ecosystem.

“The majority of parking assets across the country are still operating on outdated systems and legacy operating models that haven’t evolved in decades,” said Kevin Musco, Vice President at Blue Heron Capital. “Vend is uniquely positioned to revolutionize this space by delivering a unified, AI-powered platform that transforms parking into a strategic asset. We see enormous potential for Vend to capture market share and redefine what’s possible for owners and operators in this category.”

About Vend Park:

Vend Park is a unified technology and operations company transforming how commercial real estate owners manage and monetize parking. By combining agentic AI with a world-class operations team, Vend automates day-to-day management, eliminates inefficiencies, and unlocks revenue trapped in outdated, fragmented systems and operating processes.

Founded by Databricks and ThoughtSpot veterans, Deductive AI introduces a new generation of AI SRE agents that accelerate root cause analysis and remediation, helping fast-moving engineering teams stay focused on building rather than firefighting.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Nov. 12, 2025 — Deductive AI, a pioneer in AI-powered root cause analysis and resolution, today announced $7.5M in seed funding and its public launch. The round was led by CRV, with participation from Databricks Ventures, Thomvest Ventures and PrimeSet. With the official launch, Deductive AI is introducing a new generation of AI SRE agents that learn from real-world incidents to automatically detect failures, diagnose root causes, and help engineers remediate software issues in minutes instead of hours.

At its core, Deductive AI is a unified platform for deploying and training AI agents that connect to an organization’s code, logs, metrics, traces, and events. These agents can reason over a continuously updated knowledge graph that maps relationships across systems, allowing them to test hypotheses, evaluate evidence, and surface precise root causes in seconds.

“The complexities and inter-dependencies of modern infrastructure means that investigating the root cause of an outage or incident can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack, except the haystack is the size of a football field, it’s made of a million other needles, it’s constantly reshuffling itself, and is on fire – and every second you don’t find it equals lost revenue,” said Sameer Agarwal, co-founder and CTO of Deductive AI. “Our goal is to fundamentally change this problem of how engineers troubleshoot software in production. By teaching AI agents to think like engineers, we’re giving teams time back to build and innovate rather than constantly firefight.”

Engineering teams today face the overwhelming challenge of diagnosing software failures across fragmented systems, sifting through petabytes of logs, millions of time-series metrics, and hundreds of dashboards to find the needle in the haystack. These investigations can take hours or days, diverting engineers from building new features and shipping products while outages ripple through systems long after the initial fault.

“We’ve seen world-class engineers spending half of their time debugging instead of building,” said Rakesh Kothari, co-founder and CEO of Deductive AI. “And as vibe coding generates new code at a rate we’ve never seen, this problem is only going to get worse. With new unpredictable failures, teams that don’t evolve their approach to debugging are going to stay stuck maintaining instead of shipping.”

Powered by purpose-built agentic AI and reinforcement learning, Deductive mimics the workflow of experienced Site Reliability Engineers (SREs). It generates hypotheses, tests them against real system evidence, and provides clear, actionable insights at every step of an investigation. While traditional observability tools stop at surfacing problems, Deductive AI takes it a step further by not only pinpointing root causes but also providing fixes and guiding teams through remediation.

“Our Ads Platform operates at a pace where manual, slow-moving investigations are no longer viable. Every minute of downtime directly affects company revenue. In those high-stress, ambiguous early moments of an incident, AI-driven triage plays a crucial role in accelerating our path to mitigation, supporting our 2026 goal of a 10-minute resolution window. Deductive has become a critical extension of our team, rapidly synthesizing signals across dozens of services and surfacing the insights that matter—within minutes.” 

– Shahrooz Ansari, Senior Director of Engineering at DoorDash

“While the industry raced toward coding agents, our partnership with Deductive took a different path: bringing agentic AI directly into data operations. Together, we built a system that unifies our telemetry streams with Deductive’s reasoning engine, creating an AI-powered frontline agent that proactively manages our data pipelines—detecting anomalies, diagnosing root causes, and accelerating resolution.”

– Vikram Gundeti, Chief Technology Officer, Foursquare

“Deductive promises to democratise visibility into our training infrastructure that has a steep learning curve today. We are excited to partner with Deductive and believe it can automatically connect the dots across hundreds of workflow executions and point us to the root cause of any failed training workflow.”

 – Virajith Jalaparti Head of Infrastructure, Kumo

“We’ve been using Deductive for about a year now. It gives us the clarity and speed we need to turn telemetry and code data into meaningful action. Deductive has demonstrated ability to learn and adapt to our unique use case and provide the key insights at every step of the investigation for our team to move faster, smarter, and with confidence.”

 – Pratik Kotkar, VP of Engineering, Apoha

“Deductive AI is an industry-defining company tackling some of the most persistent pain points in software reliability. Their approach represents the next generation of intelligent reliability systems that help engineering teams move faster, innovate more, and manage complexity at scale.”

– Max Gazor, Board Partner at CRV and early investor in category-defining companies such as Reflection AI, Airtable, and Cribl

Deductive’s founders bring deep expertise from building and scaling some of Silicon Valley’s most successful data and analytics platforms. Sameer Agarwal earned his Ph.D. at UC Berkeley, where he created BlinkDB, a state-of-the-art approximate query processing framework, and was among the first engineers at Databricks building Apache Spark. Rakesh Kothari was an early engineer at ThoughtSpot, where he led teams focused on distributed query processing and large-scale system optimization. Together, they founded Deductive AI to bring reasoning, not reaction, to the heart of software reliability.

Built on Unified Visibility, RADAR’s AI Already Powers Leading Enterprises in CPG, Food, & Beyond

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Nov. 12, 2025 — Decklar (formerly Roambee) today announced the launch of RADAR (Real-time Alert Detection And Response), a next-generation, AI-native Logistics Control Tower Platform that unifies real-time visibility, predictive intelligence, and autonomous logistics execution. RADAR moves global supply chains beyond dashboards and exception monitoring, into an operating model where Decision AI continuously interprets what is happening, determines what must happen next, and initiates fast, auditable action—autonomously or in collaboration with humans.

The launch comes at a time when supply chain leaders face unprecedented volatility. A Deloitte survey referenced by Supply Chain Digital warns that, “76% of manufacturers say visibility across their supply chain is limited. In the past, this meant delayed shipments or missed deadlines. In 2025, it can mean reputational damage, compliance violations or multi-million-dollar losses.” The article further adds, “With those risks in mind, 55% of supply chain leaders are increasing tech investment and 60% plan to spend more than US$1m on solutions such as orchestrated visibility platforms, cloud computing, predictive analytics and AI. Companies like Lenovo are investing heavily in AI-driven supply chain capabilities, highlighting how urgently Global 2000 enterprises are modernizing visibility, planning, and execution.”

Most control towers software modules are offered by two categories of companies: supply chain planning (SCP) tools or real-time transport visibility platforms (RTTVPs) built on carrier and milestone data. The first group is strong as a System of Record but slow to act because they rely on periodic refreshes and manual intervention. The second sees movement but lacks verifiable & unified visibility, resulting in fragmented or delayed intelligence that cannot drive true real-time intervention. For years, enterprises relied on such control tower software or developed their own. Most still depend on human operators, planners, and GSOC-style teams to piece together context, escalate correctly, and enforce SOPs. As regulatory demands rise and shipment volumes surge, this human-dependent, polling-based model can no longer keep up.

RADAR is different. Built on unified visibility—streaming  track & trace, milestone data, carrier, environmental, and product behavior signals—it acts as a real-time System of Action that correlates events, anticipates risks, and executes the right response instantly. Its AI analyzes emerging patterns, classifies risks, anticipates disruptions, and determines the exact interventions required. From there, RADAR’s autonomous agents initiate the response—whether it is with AI voice calling a driver stopped at a high-risk zone, escalating to quality and security teams, enforcing lane-specific SOP violations, or routing decisions to the apprise internal owners with full context. The result is a level of unmatched speed, consistency, and accountability that manual control towers simply cannot achieve.

 “Visibility helped supply chains see, but visibility alone cannot operate a modern supply chain network,” said Sanjay Sharma, CEO of Decklar. “RADAR is the first AI-native Logistics Control Tower Platform built as a real-time System of Action for execution and intervention across 100% of the supply chain network. It understands what’s happening, knows what needs to happen next, and acts instantly including picking up the phone and having a conversation with vehicle operators or other supply chain stakeholders. This is the level of intelligence the next decade of supply chain resilience will be built on.”

Early enterprise deployments show the impact of this approach. A global chocolatier improved cold chain compliance from 57% to over 90% while avoiding an expensive transport infrastructure overhauls and strengthening retailer confidence in a region. A regulated global CPG leader brought its ocean network under real-time control across 120+ countries, reducing detention, demurrage, unnecessary air freight, and stockout risk. Across these networks, RADAR has unlocked more than $17 million in combined annual value in top and bottom lines for these companies. In pharma distribution, RADAR is configured to enable three times faster response to excursions and route deviations while reducing theft and temperature incidents dramatically.

RADAR is now available globally. To explore the platform in detail, download the RADAR Adoption Guide at www.decklar.com/ai-platform/radar. 

About Decklar
Decklar (formerly Roambee) pioneers Real-Time Decisions AI with Unified Visibility, reshaping the supply chains of Global 2000s to be transparent, automated, and sustainable. Within weeks, these enterprises transform key processes like replenishment, goods receipt, revenue forecasting, quality release, security, and asset management into dynamic, risk-informed operations. Despite over $25B spent globally on planning, TMS, and visibility tools, supply chains still stall: 60% of shipments arrive late, disrupting inventory plans; 17% face quality issues; and 76% of reusable assets go underutilized. Planning/TMS tools remain Systems of Record, relying on static or manual data. Visibility tools lack business context. Decklar closes this gap.

Built on 10+ years self-enriching supply chain visibility data, the Decklar’s AI-native platform fuses real-time shipment and asset signals with Decision Intelligence—delivering precise execution and planning recommendations for Supply Chain, Logistics, Quality, Security, Operations, and Finance—functioning as a System of Action. Decklar’s Real-Time Decisions AI now powers over 42% of U.S. pharmaceutical shipments, more than 66% of South Asia’s confectionery, and about a quarter of global CPG shipments—measurably boosting top and bottom lines.

Funding brings total raised to date over $10M; newly formed GC Advisory Board includes legal leaders from Bristol Myers Squibb, Docusign, HP, SentinelOne, GoDaddy, and more.

PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 12, 2025 — Theo Ai, the AI-driven prediction platform for Am Law 200 and General Counsels, today announced the formation of its General Counsel Advisory Board and a new round of funding led by Run Ventures, bringing the company’s total funding to date to over $10 million. The new round, which follows Theo’s $4.2 million seed raise in May 2025, will accelerate the company’s expansion of its AI capabilities, hiring of engineering talent, and continued development of its predictive analytics platform for the legal industry. PT Ungvichian, Partner at Run Ventures, will join Theo Ai’s Board of Directors as part of the investment.

Theo Ai’s Advisory Board brings together a cross-industry group of senior legal leaders to shape the company’s technology and guide adoption across enterprise legal departments. Members include GCs and CLOs. The Advisory Board strengthens trust and transparency between Theo and the legal community giving Fortune 500 Chief Legal Officers direct visibility into how Theo’s prediction models are built, validated, and applied. This trusted oversight ensures accuracy and accountability, so Theo’s technology meets the standards of the world’s most sophisticated legal teams. The founding members include:

• Sandra Leung (Former EVP, General Counsel at Bristol Myers Squibb)
• Jessica Nguyen (Deputy General Counsel, Docusign)
• Jared Sine (Chief Legal Officer, GoDaddy)
• Arthur Jenkins (In House Counsel, Regal Cinemas)
• Rob Hale (General Counsel, SmartBiz Bank)
• Tim Lee (Former Corporate Counsel, US Bank)
• Christophe Mosby (Associate General Counsel and VP, HP)
• Keenan Conder (Chief Legal Officer, SentinelOne, Inc.)
• Rachel Harris (General Counsel, Suzy, Inc.)
• Christopher Lalan (Chief Legal Officer, 1Money)
• Aruna Krishnamachari (Assistant General Counsel, eBay)
• Jeff Christianson (Former GC at F5 Networks, Nintex, Raptor)
• Jolene Marshall (Chief Legal Officer, HighLevel Inc.)
• Ross Weiner (Former Partner and General Counsel, Qatalyst Partners)
• Erica A. Holzer (Partner, Maslon LLP)

“The work of Theo Ai has the potential to revolutionize high-stakes litigation settlements,” said Sandra Leung, Former EVP and General Counsel at Bristol Myers Squibb. “It will expedite settlements and reduce legal expenses.”

“I’ve negotiated countless liability caps in contracts based on potential liability or comparable commercial terms of the industry,” said Jessica Nguyen, Deputy General Counsel, AI Innovation & Trust, at Docusign. “Theo transforms a theoretical risk to a number grounded in data.”

“Patrick and the Theo Ai team are setting a new pace for the legal industry. They’re tackling one of litigation’s biggest hurdles, uncertainty, by giving lawyers a clearer, data-driven view of the path ahead,” said PT Ungvichian, Partner at Run Ventures and Theo Ai’s new board member. “It’s the kind of ambition we love to run alongside, and we’re excited to help them and their exceptional advisors accelerate their vision.” 

“Just five months after closing our seed round, we’re excited to expand both our capital and advisors,” said Patrick Ip, Co-founder and CEO of Theo Ai. “We’re grateful for all the clients that have put their trust in us, and are excited by the expanding partnerships.”

Legal documents often stretch thousands of pages, Theo processes them in minutes while surfacing the facts that matter and providing an unprecedented level of case intelligence. Beyond the wealth of data in these files are the crucial case-specific nuances that Theo’s models are trained to tackle, understanding and weighing details like context, terminology, tone, and imagery. That vertical precision gives Theo an edge: it knows its clients’ legal environments better than anyone else. This is why vertical AI is the future and why general counsels are embracing Theo’s technology for the confidence it brings to every legal decision.
