Created by researchers from UC Berkeley, Arena (formerly LMArena) is a community-powered platform to measure and advance the frontier of AI for real-world use. Tens of millions of builders, researchers, and creative professionals come to Arena to use frontier models and give feedback on their responses, shaping a public leaderboard grounded in real-world use.

Assort Health is building healthcare that remembers. From call center automation and form intake to referrals, document processing, outreach, and payments, we manage the entire patient journey for providers. Our platform is the most widely used AI agents platform for the patient journey, built on 190 million specialty patient interactions and a model that handles the complexity general-purpose AI can’t. Healthcare organizations see a 5% lift in appointment volume, a 115% increase in labor capacity, and a 4.3 out of 5 patient satisfaction score. With over $222M raised from Menlo Ventures, Lightspeed, First Round Capital, Felicis Ventures, Chemistry Ventures, Apolo Ohno, and Joe Montana, Assort is becoming the standard for how providers use AI to transform the patient journey.

Eventual is building a multimodal data platform for AI systems from the ground up, designed to tackle the challenges of working with traditional data engineering and analytics alongside modern ML/AI workloads. Eventual has raised $30M from investors including Felicis, CRV, M12, Citi, YCombinator, Array VC, Caffeinated Capital and top Silicon Valley executives and founders in companies such as Meta, Lyft and Databricks.

Todays AI agents struggle with fragmented context and limited memory. Just as computers needed operating systems to manage resources, your agents need intelligent context management to unlock their full potential. Letta is a complete operating system for building stateful agents AI agents. Letta handles state persistence, context compilation, and intelligent resource allocation, so you can focus on building applications powered by agents that actually learn. Letta was founded by the creators of MemGPT, which introduced memory (or context) management for AI agents. The company was spun out of the UC Berkeley Sky Computing research lab, and is advised by Ion Stoica (co-founder of Databricks, Anyscale) and funded by top-tier investors.

DatologyAI builds tools to automatically select the best data on which to train deep learning models. Our tools leverage cutting-edge research—much of which we perform ourselves—to identify redundant, noisy, or otherwise harmful data points. The algorithms that power our tools are modality-agnostic—they’re not limited to text or images—and don’t require labels, making them ideal for realizing the next generation of large deep learning models. Our products allow customers in nearly any vertical to train better models for cheaper.

At Felicis, we back founders with the courage to build before success is obvious. Felicis means “fortunate” and while there’s a tremendous amount of luck involved in building a market-defining company, we believe luck is something you engineer through courage, imagination, and decisive action. In the early days, founders need a trusted partner who shares their conviction (ahead of traction or validation) and can give them exactly what they need to accelerate their growth curve. We move fast and commit early. We always vote our shares alongside founders. Beyond capital, we invest 1% on top of every first check to support founders’ performance. Since our founding in 2006, we’ve raised 10 funds and have more than $4.1B AUM. Felicis-backed founders have built 50+ $1B+ companies, achieved 125+ exits, and generated $285B+ in market value, including Shopify, Adyen, Credit Karma, Cruise, Twitch, Plaid, Ginkgo Bioworks, Guardant Health, Meraki, and Ring. Active portfolio includes Canva, Crusoe, Arena, Mercor, n8n, Notion, Runway, Revel, Skild AI, Supabase, Tines, and Semgrep.
