Medication adherence is one of healthcare's largest and most expensive unsolved problems. To date, no one has built a compelling consumer product around it. As a stealth startup, BXRX aims to change that. Drawing on deep experience in consumer hardware, wearables, and behavior-driven design, BXRX is developing a first-of-its-kind product and solution that makes medication adherence easier, more engaging, and more human. BXRX intends that this new product category will achieve for medication and supplements what wearables once did for fitness. BXRX is born out of the personal story of founder TJ Varghese, a former Googler of 12 years and Founder of Google Jamboard and Google Fitbit Air. The company operates at the intersection of healthcare, beautifully designed consumer technology, and behavioral science—addressing a challenge that affects more than 165 million Americans and costs the healthcare system ~$300B/year.

Before Dark Watch, there was no easy way to detect high-risk threats like terrorists and human traffickers. With Dark Watch, organizations can now prevent human trafficking, terrorism, and child predators proactively at the transaction level. The tech is privacy-forward Pre-Arrival Intelligence™, giving ticketing and payments at theme parks, hotels, and stadiums the ability to detect high-risk actors proactively. By transforming fragmented public and proprietary intelligence into precise, actionable signals, Dark Watch is building a new security layer for live events—shifting safety from reactive investigation to real-time prevention. The technology has already helped map more than 200 criminal and exploitation networks and identify 17,000+ illicit massage businesses. The goal is global: Make Dark Watch the infrastructure that powers global commerce, capable of recognizing threats early enough to stop them.

Equera is building the digital infrastructure that brings community-based tourism online, connecting a vetted global network of over 250,000 local operators to the travel companies and travelers who want authentic, community-rooted experiences. Today, 47% of global experiences, representing $140B in spend, are still booked offline, leaving the communities who make travel meaningful locked out of the industry's growth. Equera uses AI-native, WhatsApp-first tools to onboard and digitize operators in emerging markets, then connects that supply to the world's largest tour operators and travel agencies. The result is a platform where revenue flows back to the communities actually delivering the experience, and each booking stops travel leakage.

Maro is Shop Pay for family health. Maro creates interoperability between school systems, health systems, health plans, and families—pairing data exchange infrastructure with a beautiful family-facing interface that turns complex healthcare tasks into a one-tap experience.

Multiply Academy exists to lift every knowledge worker onto the AI wave rather than see them displaced by it. The training teaches a new way of working: AI produces the work while the professional directs, supervises, and approves—through a self-paced course of seven modules over about 10 weeks, built on each trainee's own real work from day one. The results are measured, not surveyed: Each person's own AI audits their actual output, and the median trainee finishes the course producing 2.2x what their working hours could produce by hand, with the top 20% above 4x. Multiply practices what they teach: solo-built and agent-operated end to end, with 25 paying customers, all inbound, including a publicly listed founding partner that has grown from 115 to 150 seats. They are sole-owned, will never raise equity, and dedicate 100% of profits to kingdom ventures.

Opto AI is the first AI financial coach built for couples, working toward a future where children never watch their parents fight over money but see the blessings of good stewardship instead. Their flagship product—live on desktop, iOS, and Android—is a guided series of conversations that walks each partner through individual reflection, mutual sharing, and joint planning across money stories, values, debt, generosity, and shared systems. Opto is built to invert an industry that profits from financial stress: They charge a flat fee per 3- to 6-month pathway, rather than an open-ended subscription, because the aim is for couples to finish, not depend on an app. And the experience points them back toward their pastors and mentors, and to each other. Opto reaches couples through premarital programs, counselors, and stewardship ministries, including a pilot with a national marriage ministry that serves ~50,000 US couples a year.

Parley is working to expand access to justice by reducing the cost and complexity of legal work. More than 100 law firms use Parley to research, draft, assemble, and file the document-heavy work at the center of their practice, and to run the case management system underneath it. Parley started in immigration, where a single visa petition could take an attorney 20-plus hours across weeks and cost a client upwards of $10K, and where attorneys now complete that same work in a day. Attorneys at multi-practice firms quickly started working on cases outside immigration, first family-based and removal matters and now personal injury and trusts and estates. Because the work itself happens in Parley, the firm's record of its clients and matters builds and updates itself, rather than requiring manual data entry, auditing, and reporting, which every other system depends on.

Theo builds technology that helps families improve their mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

By combining subscription software, original content, and character-driven experiences, Theo helps parents turn faith formation into a sustainable family habit.

Tugboat is the consumer infrastructure layer of property insurance, supporting policyholders during the most challenging moments of their insurance journey. Insurance claims are the most consequential time in that journey, both financially and emotionally, and that is where the core of Tugboat's tools and support lie. Homeowners, business owners, and renters use Tugboat to document their property before a loss, understand what their policy actually covers, and move through a claim with expert guidance at every step, from first notice to final payment. Tugboat reaches people both directly and through the institutions already in their lives, offered by apartment owners, financial institutions, and employers to everyone they serve. Members who settle with Tugboat's support recover roughly $25K more on average, and roughly $54K more after wildfire.
