A first, and certainly not the last.
The first startup fundraising at https://t.co/RHXFwPZtsF is Belgian, founder-led, and powered by AI ๐ง๐ช๐
Weโre very happy to announce today that https://t.co/2Isg80r38E has raised $2.1 million to transform the way we work.
The idea?
Speed up manual tasks with AI.
You describe what you want to do in plain language, and https://t.co/2Isg80r38E executes it directly inside your tools.
Why we love this project:
๐ซ A killer team: @SevNolf & @MaximeLahy .
๐ A fast trajectory: from Paris to San Francisco, before choosing Brussels and WAT.
๐ฅ A strong signal: a meaningful first round that confirms the momentum of the WAT ecosystem.
Huge congrats to the team, and thanks to the investors joining the journey: @Pitchdrive_vc , @SyndicateOneVC , @join_ef , @transposevc , https://t.co/kYCqifMxIo and industry business angels.
The Brussels ecosystem is ambitious, and PleaseFix is proof of it.
Massive congratulations!!!
