About Us


One of our portfolio companies is developing a platform that enables anyone, regardless of technical expertise, to create and deploy web applications simply by describing their vision.

The company is expanding its focus from frontend development to full-stack capabilities, with a mission to help users quickly ship production-ready applications that can scale to millions.
