Greylock’s latest seed investment is building the next interface for how enterprise employees interact with computers. Founded by two second-time founders, they're creating an AI agent that can observe, understand, and act on a user’s computer, enabling employees to describe an outcome and have the AI execute complex workflows end-to-end.


This gives enterprises immediate, measurable value and establishes them as a trusted assistant embedded directly into the user’s daily computer experience.


The company is founded by two repeat entrepreneurs with deep enterprise AI experience and a history of operating at massive scale, leading genAI for one of the most prominent tech startups for multiple years. The company is in stealth and based in San Francisco.
