​​The Grit team has been invested in Loupe’s success since our early days. They’ve been true partners, tireless in their support not only of the company’s goals, but also of my personal success. Their invaluable expertise, deep network, and genuine commitment have helped us tremendously throughout our journey to a successful exit.

Grit’s domain expertise and ability to get us in the room with key corporate relationships not only yielded early customers, but gave us critical access to the data we needed to train our models at a crucial moment in Speechlab’s journey. They’ve been ideal partners, actively adding value with a deep understanding of AI at a level of technical depth we’ve found uncommon among other funds.
