We are pleased to have led an oversubscribed seed round at Pull Logic, an Atlanta-based supply chain AI company. Across industries, better inventory management has become an urgent issue. Inventory values now are 30% higher than before the pandemic, soaking up working capital and acting as a drag on company profitability. In the US, this overstocking is estimated to cost over $550B each year. At the same time, lost revenue from “stockouts”, not having the right product when a customer demands it, is an even bigger loss driver. One of Pull Logic’s customers estimates that only 70% of demand is served today due to the right product not being available to the customer at the point of sale. An estimated $1.2T of revenue is lost to this unfulfilled demand. Pull Logic is adapting core supply chain research from Georgia Tech to solve this large problem and we are excited to see them build a new category called Availability Intelligence. Congrats to the Pull Logic team! Great to partner with Foster Ventures Silicon Road Ventures YANMAR VENTURES DNX Ventures - US and others on this exciting journey.

It goes by a lot of names: MSO, synthetic rollup, business-in-a-box. But earning a right to sharing in customers' upside is unique vertical strategy. Shopify, Honor, Compass, DoorDash, TaskRabbit, OpenDoor, Grow Therapy. What does it take to win that level of customer trust early? Sometimes, it means doing things that don't scale. Services can play a big role. We asked Dan Friedman, founder of another champion of the model: Moxie Get Dan's take in this clip from our latest episode.

🚨NEW EPISODE: Recorded live at FUTURE TITANS 2026 - Jeff Perry of Carta sat down with the iconic Seth Levine, co-founder of Foundry. Seth has been in venture for 25 years, built Foundry from scratch as an emerging manager himself, and has backed about 50 emerging manager funds through his fund of funds. He has genuinely seen every side of this table. They went deep on building Foundry, why VCs are in the influence business, not the decision business, and why the concentration problem in venture is not only bad for LPs, but also for the innovation ecosystem overall. And why Seth's new book, Capital Evolution, is so important for the future of America. 🎧 Links to listen... Apple: https://lnkd.in/ehQUQ2EM Spotify: https://lnkd.in/eU4FExpg
