Tradespeople already use WhatsApp all day on the job site, and many write quotes by hand or in a spreadsheet. Tutti puts the office work into that chat, so the customer has nothing new to install or learn. It sends messages through Meta's official WhatsApp Business Platform, which lets one founder run the service without a phone app as the main product.

It sold to large companies from the first months, together with a network of human mentors, and an investor reported that it made €30,000 a month within a few months of launch. The founders then turned the mentoring business into a platform built on skills data, raised a €5.8M Series A in 2025, and the managing director of Techstars Torino reported €3.6M in annual recurring revenue in February 2026.

Large companies run many HR systems that do not share data, so a single case such as a new hire passes through several of them by hand. Ahron does not replace those systems; it connects to them, measures where cases wait, and places agents there. The founders had sold an earlier HR software company, and the product is built on Celonis, a Munich process-mining company whose partnership, the founder says, brings in requests from around the world.

The founders came from a company that did outsourced purchasing for other firms, so they knew which purchasing tasks were still done by hand in email and spreadsheets. Soource turned those tasks into agent workflows for large companies. One article from the South Summit Madrid 2026 conference reported 800K in annual recurring revenue and 58 enterprise customers, without a currency and without saying who gave the figure.

French renovation quotes depend on subsidy and tax rules that change every few months, and the small firm that installs the equipment bears the risk of a wrong file. Argile puts those rules and the building calculation methods into the software, so a salesperson can give a detailed quote within an hour of a visit instead of weeks later.

Food distributors still take many orders by email, text message and phone and type them into old ERP systems by hand. The two founders worked inside a Boston seafood distributor for months to map that work before they built the product. Then they sold it themselves to large distributors: an a16z speedrun newsletter of January 2026 says one enterprise deal with a publicly traded distributor took their booked revenue past US$500,000.

Churches with members from many countries meet every week, and the older solutions cost too much for most of them: an interpreter for each language, or radio receivers to hand out and collect. Glossa charges US$5 for one hour of speech in one language, counts by the minute, and charges nothing for silence, songs or extra listeners, so a small church can start with four free hours and then a few dollars a week. The product is shaped for this one buyer: captions go into ProPresenter and OBS, which churches already run, and a church can fix how names, Bible quotations and its own terms are translated. A very small team can offer this because the speech recognition and the voices are rented from model companies and paid by use.

The first customers came from a lifetime-deal sale on AppSumo, at a time when the product had no AI at all. That gave about a thousand users, word of mouth and a Powered by Guidejar link on every free guide. From April 2024 the founder sold subscriptions instead, and added AI writing, voiceover and translation to the paid plans, metered in credits.

The founder released it as a free open-source tool nine days after he wrote that the new GPT-4 Vision and Turbo API previews allowed only 100 requests a day. Hacker News and GitHub trending brought the repository more than 35,000 stars in under three months, and the README sends readers on to the paid hosted version for people who do not want to set up keys and servers. It had made US$1,000 within 19 days, with a Stripe payment link and no user accounts.

Candidates for consulting jobs need dozens of practice cases, and the usual options are a free peer partner of uneven quality or a coach who charges US$100 to US$300 an hour. A language model can play the interviewer at any hour for US$49 a month. The founder wrote that the customers come from search: the sitemap lists 596 blog pages written for Google and for AI assistants.

In Indonesia a credit analyst still reads a pile of PDFs, scans and phone photos by hand for each loan. Fineksi sells the reading step to the lender, so the analyst checks results instead of typing numbers. The accelerator Accelerating Asia reported in December 2025 that the founders had banking and technology experience and bank customers such as Permata Bank and Hana Bank.
