Stackblitz, founded by Eric Simons, pivoted from a 7-year deep-tech play building WebContainer (a browser-based operating system) to launch Bolt, an AI-powered text-to-app builder. After launching with a single tweet in October 2023, Bolt achieved $20M ARR in two months and $40M ARR by month five with 1M monthly active users, making it one of the fastest-growing products in startup history.

3Kit is a 3D and augmented reality visualization software platform that helps e-commerce brands and manufacturers show complex product configurations digitally. Founded by Ben Houston in 2012 with visual effects expertise, the company replatformed 3.5 years ago and now serves 220 enterprise customers like TaylorMade, Crate and Barrel, and others, with pricing from $18k to $500k annually. The company is on track to break $10M ARR in 2021 (doubling or tripling from ~$5M the prior year) and has raised $65M to date ($10M seed in 2019, $35M Series B in November 2020).
