Why we invested

Gabriel and Oriana recognized early on the potential of technology to tackle core societal issues of safety and trust in Latin America. In the emerging on-demand economy, they found a market opportunity to serve new entrants that needed to rapidly hire workers in multiple countries. Gabriel and Oriana had successfully bootstrapped the business while building a fully-remote team, which demonstrated to us they would deliver on their mission to provide digital trust across the region.
