Duvo automates the hard, long-running processes that break across messy enterprise stacks — ERPs, portals, phone calls, spreadsheets, and systems with no API. The stuff nobody else wants to touch. Not drafts. Not suggestions. Closed cases: systems updated, write-backs verified, evidence attached. End to end, with enterprise reliability. Cloud browsing for systems nobody else can reach. Voice for last-mile closure. Governed execution with human-in-the-loop approvals and full audit trails. No token bills. No usage surprises. One predictable subscription — so you can build a business case on day one. No technical skills needed. Enterprise-grade security. Runs 24/7. Backed by Index Ventures, Northzone, and Credo Ventures.

Genesis AI is a global full-stack robotics company building general-purpose robots with human-level intelligence and capabilities. Led by a world-class team obsessed with excellence at every level, Genesis AI is pushing the boundaries of robotics and AI to unlock a new era of human productivity. We are a new generation of robotics builders, united by a shared mission to push the boundaries of physical AI. Our team brings together the minds behind many of the most significant advances in robotics and AI in recent years — spanning the full stack. We introduced generative simulation, created foundational platforms such as Genesis, Jiminy, Flightmare, GVBD Voxels, and invented the IPC algorithm. We led the development of the first multimodal models at Mistral AI and Apple Intelligence. We co-created UMI and Diffusion Policy, pioneered reinforcement learning frameworks for superhuman drone racing, and scaled robotic data systems at NVIDIA GR00T. We built cross-platform GPU compilers such as VeriGPU, DeepCL, Coriander, and the original PyTorch. We also built industry-leading rendering engines at Google, Epic and Unity. Now, we’ve come together at Genesis AI to close the loop, and build what’s next.

A new standard of benchmarks for confident compensation Wrong compensation decisions cost companies millions – lost hires, wasted budgets, top talent walking out the door. All because they’re navigating with a broken compass: inaccurate benchmarks. With payroll accounting for over 70% of operating costs, businesses can’t afford to get compensation wrong. That’s why 1,500 companies – such as Adyen, Wise, and Octopus Energy – trust Ravio as the new standard for compensation benchmarking. It’s not about yesterday’s survey data or piecing together job postings, salary sites, and crowdsourced reports with AI. Ravio benchmarks are powered by live data pulled directly from company HR systems, which is expertly mapped and levelled by our compensation specialists, and backed by a robust methodology you can defend in any boardroom. Flexible enough to align with your strategy, but rigorous enough to stand up to scrutiny – a true quality-first benchmark. With Ravio, you don’t just get numbers – you get market intelligence that matters: real-time pay trends to win hires, insights to plan smarter, and pay positioning to keep your best people. All reflecting today’s market reality, not last year’s.
