ROAD TOWN, British Virgin Islands, Oct. 13, 2025 — Falcon Finance, the first universal collateralization infrastructure, today announced a comprehensive $10 million strategic investment from M2 Capital Limited (M2 Capital), the proprietary investment arm of M2 Group (M2), a UAE-headquartered conglomerate, with a diversified portfolio spanning digital asset solutions and financial innovation. The round also included participation from Cypher Capital, a UAE-based multi-strategy investment firm known for backing high-impact blockchain infrastructure projects. This investment marks a major milestone in Falcon’s mission to redefine stability and capital efficiency in decentralized finance.

The investment comes at a time of rapid growth for Falcon Finance. In recent months, the protocol has surpassed $1.6 billion in USDf circulation, placing it among the top ten stablecoins by market capitalization. Falcon also established a $10 million on-chain insurance fund, seeded with protocol fees, to serve as a protective buffer for users and safeguard yield obligations in times of stress. In parallel, the team successfully completed the industry’s first live mint of USDf against tokenized U.S. Treasuries, bridging DeFi liquidity with real-world assets and advancing the integration of institutional-grade instruments into the decentralized ecosystem.

Falcon has also expanded the reach and utility of USDf through new exchange listings and integrations across DeFi protocols, from perpetuals and real-world asset trading venues to yield markets. Supported by Chainlink’s Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) and Proof of Reserve, Falcon delivers real-time verification that USDf remains fully overcollateralized, further strengthening trust and transparency.

With M2 Capital’s investment, Falcon will accelerate its global roadmap, focusing on expanding fiat corridors, deepening ecosystem partnerships, and enhancing the resilience of its universal collateralization model. 

Commenting on the investment, James Greenwood, CEO of M2 Group said: “Our investment in Falcon Finance reflects M2’s conviction that the next era of digital assets will be defined by combining resilient, transparent infrastructure with pioneering products and investment opportunities. Falcon’s universal collateralization model and synthetic dollar protocol are precisely the kind of innovations that enable M2’s family office, institutional investor and high-net-worth clients to access digital asset markets with confidence, liquidity and real-world integration.” 

“This partnership with M2 marks a new chapter for Falcon Finance,” said Andrei Grachev, Founding Partner at Falcon Finance. “It is a powerful endorsement of the progress we’ve made, from surpassing a billion USDf in circulation to pioneering on-chain insurance and bridging DeFi with real-world assets. With M2’s support, we are accelerating toward our vision of building the most resilient and inclusive financial infrastructure in the digital economy.”

PROVIDENCE, R.I., Oct. 10, 2025 — HavocAI, a leading developer of maritime autonomous systems, today announced it has secured $85 million in new capital. The funding comes from new investors B Capital, In-Q-Tel, Lockheed Martin, Hanwha, Taiwania, Vanderbilt University, Up Partners, Island Green Capital, and Zero Infinity Partners, along with continued support from Scout Ventures and Outlander Ventures in addition to other early funders. The funding round, completed at a significant valuation increase, brings HavocAI’s total funding to nearly $100 million – an unprecedented achievement for a maritime autonomy company in its first year and a half of operations.

The capital injection positions HavocAI to accelerate the scaling of its proven autonomous maritime platforms, ensure long-term operational resilience, and demonstrate the financial stability that government customers require from emerging defense technology partners. All the recent investors are mission-aligned partners who bring not only capital but critical geographic and technological collaborations that multiply HavocAI’s capabilities.

The funding will directly support multiple strategic initiatives, including the following primary missions:

• Additional Vessel Integration: Beyond HavocAI’s current fleet of 14′, 38′, 42′, and 100′ vessels, funding will enable integration onto entirely new vessel types and sizes, increasing the capability and interoperability of platforms leveraging HavocAI’s technology.
• Supporting Increased Demand: Funding will enable HavocAI to increase manufacturing capacity to meet the U.S. military’s demand signal to build thousands of autonomous boats that can be used immediately.
• Aiding Allies & Partners: Funding will increase HavocAI’s ability to operate in non-US areas of responsibility and provide additional direct support to our international allies and partners, especially in the Indo-Pacific.

“This funding represents far more than just capital – it has enabled us to cut through the noise about maritime autonomy and build a collaborative autonomy stack that actually works in a very short time,” said Paul Lwin, CEO and co-founder of HavocAI. “We’ve put two new boats in the water this year, and we’re going to add two more before the year is over, including our 100′ Atlas multi-mission vessel. Our swarming autonomy accomplishes priority missions today, not at an unknown point in the future. This technology is needed right now.”

HavocAI has pursued a software-first strategy, reasoning that there is enough shipbuilding capacity to serve military and commercial needs if superior autonomy creates heterogeneous, self-organizing fleets in which hundreds or potentially thousands of vessels can be tasked by a single operator. The company has consistently demonstrated working autonomy on its vessels and several made by other builders.

“HavocAI represents exactly the kind of company we look for – one that combines cutting-edge technology with the proven ability to sell and execute,” said Howard Morgan, Chairman and General Partner at B Capital. “HavocAI is actually delivering working solutions that solve real operational challenges. Their ability to demonstrate functional autonomous systems at scale sets them apart as the clear market leader in this critical technology area.”

The funding round also reflects growing international recognition of HavocAI’s strategic importance, particularly among allies focused on maritime security and deterrence capabilities. The participation of prominent Indo-Pacific investors underscores the global nature of maritime security challenges and the universal need for advanced autonomous capabilities.

“Our investment reflects our belief that HavocAI is making real, measurable contributions to regional stability through technological superiority,” said David Weng, General Partner at Taiwania. “Going forward, one of our goals is to bring HavocAI to collaborate with local partners here in Taiwan.”

About HavocAI

Founded just over a year and a half ago, HavocAI has delivered more than thirty fully operational products to the U.S. military and demonstrated highly scalable collaborative autonomy to the Navy and Army in multiple real-world scenarios. The company has four distinct vessels (14′ Rampage, 38′ Seahound, 42′ Kiakoa, and 100′ Atlas) in production, and signed partnership agreements with Lockheed Martin, PacMar Technologies, Metal Shark, Ilmor, Tocaro Blue, and more.

Company announces positive first-in-human study results, the close of a $6.9 million Series A financing, and FDA approval of its Investigational Device Exemption. 

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 9, 2025 — Amplifi Vascular, developer of the first-of-its-kind Vein Dilation System designed to increase eligibility, improve creation and early maturation of arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) for hemodialysis, today announced three major milestones: positive first-in-human (FIH) study results, the close of a $6.9 million Series A financing, and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of its Investigational Device Exemption (IDE).

The Amplifi FIH Study enrolled nineteen (19) patients to pre-dilate veins prior to surgical AVF creation. The study met its primary objectives, with rapid post-procedure vein enlargement supporting successful fistula creation, physiological maturation (≥5mm in diameter and ≥500ml/min flow), and early functional use. No significant device-related adverse events were reported. Results support the system’s potential to address the root cause of extended time to maturation and historical high degree of failure leading to an increase in rates of forearm AVF success and to potentially reduce the dependence on dialysis catheters and grafts.

“Our first-in-human study not only met its primary objectives but also demonstrated rapid post-procedure vein enlargement, facilitating successful fistula creation, physiological maturation, and early functional use,” stated Sean Morris, President and Chief Executive, Amplifi Vascular. “Furthermore, the FDA IDE approval empowers us to commence a U.S. clinical investigation, directly addressing the underlying causes of extended maturation times and elevated failure rates in AVF creation.”

FDA IDE approval enables Amplifi to initiate AMPLIFI-1, a U.S. clinical investigation evaluating safety, performance, and time to functional maturation compared with standard care. Surendra Shenoy, MD, Washington University, St. Louis School of Medicine said, “Early outcomes suggest that proactive vein dilation prior to AVF surgery can significantly improve the likelihood of achieving a usable fistula sooner—an outcome that matters greatly to our dialysis patients.”

About Amplifi Vascular Amplifi Vascular is a medical device company focused on improving hemodialysis access by enabling reliable, early maturing forearm AVFs. The Amplifi Vein Dilation System delivers a controlled, temporary therapy to enlarge target veins prior to surgical fistula creation, aiming to increase success rates, reduce catheter days and re-interventions, and lower overall costs of care.

Unicorn founders committed to delivering the complete infrastructure for the next evolution of search and discovery

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 9, 2025 — Search Party, a new startup in the generative engine optimization (GEO) space, has launched out of stealth with a $3.5 million funding round led by Fuse, a leading early-stage VC firm known for backing category-defining SaaS and AI companies.

The launch comes as nearly half of consumers have already turned to AI over Google for search and discovery. Search Party offers brands the opportunity to reclaim their voice in large language models like ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity by offering complete visibility and unprecedented control over how they appear in AI-generated answers.

Unlike early GEO tools that stop at visibility tracking, Search Party reveals where AI sources its answers, then activates autonomous workflows that generate strategies and content to influence those sources.

“AI models respond to the signals we feed them,” said Ryan Brown, CTO and co-founder. “We give brands the technical visibility to see which sources shape those signals and the tools to influence them. Because if you don’t write the story, someone else will.”

Search Party also digs deep into prompt-level analytics. Users can store and analyze unlimited queries related to their brand and products, benchmark competitors, and transform insights into actions that improve how large language models describe them.

“You aren’t just marketing to people anymore,” said Brandon Brown, CEO and Co-Founder. “You’re marketing to AI, and AI is marketing to people. That means you need to show up in the places AI trusts, and present your content in a way that it understands. That’s what Search Party is built for.”

Brandon and Ryan Brown were previously two of the co-founders of GRIN, the world’s leading creator management platform and Sacramento’s first tech unicorn.

Under Brandon’s leadership as CEO, GRIN grew from $0 to $1 billion in valuation, raised $145 million across seven funding rounds, and scaled from two to 480 employees before his exit in 2024. Ryan led engineering and technical strategy as GRIN became the undisputed category leader for influencer marketing software.

“Brandon and Ryan have already proven their ability to build category-defining companies, and we believe Search Party is poised to do the same in the new era of generative search,” said Brendan Wales, General Partner at Fuse VC. “As AI rapidly reshapes how people discover and trust information, brands need purpose-built solutions to understand and influence how they appear. Fuse is excited to back the team and their vision for putting companies in control of their AI visibility.”

Brandon and Ryan each bring two decades of leadership experience to a new frontier: GEO and AI-powered visibility.

“By this time next year, AI will be the dominant discovery channel, yet most brands won’t even know how they show up,” said Brandon Brown, CEO and co-founder of Search Party. “We built Search Party to help brands take back control.”

Search Party is now accepting early users into its beta program. Brands can try Search Party for free today and start building visibility in the new era of search and discovery.

About Search Party

Search Party helps brands track and control how they appear in answer engines like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. As LLMs become the new front door to the internet, it’s more critical than ever to show up accurately and with authority.

The platform analyzes how models perceive your brand, identifies the sources shaping that perception, and delivers personalized workflows to grow and improve it. The end goal: to make you the definitive answer in the prompts that matter most to your brand.

Search Party is now accepting early users into its beta program. Brands can visit the website to apply for access and start building visibility in the next frontier of search.

AUSTIN, Texas, Oct. 9, 2025 — Mentium, the AI-native platform building “digital workers” for freight brokerages and the wider logistics sector, today announced it has raised $3.2 million in seed funding. The round was led by Lerer Hippeau with participation from Matchstick Ventures, Tower Research Capital, Antler, MBA Ventures, and angel investor Michael Witte, founder and CEO of Equal Parts.

Mentium‘s AI agents address one of the industry’s most expensive and persistent challenges: fragmented, manual back-office work that slows operations, drains margins, and limits scale.

Mentium‘s AI agents:

• Integrate with any system to create a single source of truth — connecting TMS, ERP, email, phone, SMS, and third-party apps like Telegram, WhatsApp, Teams, and Slack.
• Create custom AI workers that use your tools to automate repetitive tasks — no coding, no pre-training needed, and they adapt to your rules.
• Eliminate manual work, errors, and revenue leakage — while boosting revenue. AI collects and processes invoices and BOLs, audits carrier payments to prevent fraud, and automates load booking and rate negotiations with voice AI.

Mentium‘s first product focus is accounts payable automation for carrier payments, a labor-heavy process and major source of revenue leakage for freight brokers and shippers. Once deployed, the platform allows customers to “hire” additional digital workers for other High-friction workflows such as carrier calls for load booking and rate negotiation, reporting, and customer–carrier communication. Early customers, including Baker Tilly (Panama), Sethmar, Heartland Logistics Group, Continental Expedited Services, are already seeing up to 70% of tasks completed with zero human touch.

“Freight brokerages are the backbone of the supply chain, yet they’re stuck with expensive, outdated technology and thin margins,” said Aziz Satarov, CEO and co-founder of Mentium. “We’re giving them the tools not just to survive, but to grow, replacing manual processes with AI agents that can be deployed in minutes and adapt to any customer’s workflow.”

“Our vision is to be the operating system for logistics,” said Matthieu Berger, CTO and co-founder of Mentium. “Once we integrate, we’re not just automating tasks — we’re becoming their data lake, their single point of truth, and the platform where they can deploy automation across their entire business.”

“We’re incredibly bullish on Mentium‘s ability to usher in an agent-driven future for the supply chain and logistics industry,” said Graham Brown, Managing Partner at Lerer Hippeau. “They’re solving real operational pain points with a solution that’s both technically powerful and easy to adopt. This is the kind of technology that can reset an industry’s efficiency baseline.”

“Mentium is unlocking automation for one of the most complex, overlooked parts of logistics. Their AI platform is a game-changer, and we’re thrilled to back them as they scale,” said Ryan Brisbane of Matchstick Ventures.

The seed funding will accelerate product development, expand go-to-market operations, and grow Mentium‘s engineering team. The company has also established partnerships with Google, AWS, and NVIDIA to ensure enterprise-grade scalability and compliance.

About Mentium
Founded in 2023, Mentium is an AI-native platform that provides digital workers for freight brokerages and logistics companies. By automating manual tasks and integrating fragmented data sources, Mentium enables operations teams to work faster, smarter, and with fewer errors.
