News 👀 : Startup HappyRobot has raised $44M in Series B funding to build AI agents to logistics and shipping businesses. Led by 3 Spanish co-founders Pablo Palafox, Javi Palafox and Luis Paarup in the Bay Area, HappyRobot is an emerging example of a startup finding real traction -- and revenue -- bringing AI to a specific vertical 🤖 🚛 Fast facts on HappyRobot: -ARR of $10M+ -$44M Series B led by Base10 Partners -Other investors include Andreessen Horowitz, Y Combinator, Tokio Marine Group and WaVe-X -Valued at ~$500M, per a source -Works with 8 of top 10 brokers, 2 of top 3 ocean carriers, and clients like DHL Supply Chain, Werner Enterprises, Schneider Is the tech all the way there yet? For voice features, mostly yes. For AI workflows, the startup still relies on FDEs to deploy its AI agents and "vibe-code" a last-mile solution. “It’s very much a Rorschach test. If you believe that agents aren’t going to be able to do 10% of what they promise to do, then this will not be a very interesting investment,” says investor Adeyemi Ajao. “But this might be the company that crafts the path, and the playbook, for the rest of the agentic companies in other verticals.” A big thanks to partner Vanta for helping this interview reach the wider startup ecosystem, fully free 🙌 🚀 https://lnkd.in/ec49psuy

AI agents are in their junior phase. In less than 12 months, they'll be senior. The leap from working well to excellent will come fast. Thanks to Expansión and María José Gómez-Serranillos Resino for including Maisa in this article about the current state of AI Agents, and how they're ready to solve (almost) everything. Companies are learning to use AI agents and integrate them into their operations. Digital Workers already automate tasks in areas like banking, finance, energy, and infrastructure. But soon they could be used in any field. Whatever the field, one thing is clear: agentic systems must be reliable, accurate, and fully auditable. Really proud to be part of this amazing company co-founded by David Villalon and Manuel Romero! https://lnkd.in/dwR-YkrT

Agentic AI isn’t just smarter automation—it’s a strategic shift toward systems that can think, reason, and act independently within safe boundaries. But with hype comes confusion. In this article from ComputerWeekly en Español, our CTO, Glenn Nethercutt explores what #AgenticAI is, what it isn’t, and why ethical frameworks like constitutional AI are essential to its responsible use. If your organization is navigating the AI opportunity, this is a must-read. https://lnkd.in/gSssj64T

🎙 New episode on Lodgerin Mode ON! Our guest this time is Alvaro Blazquez, founder of MadridEasy , an agency specialized in providing housing for students and young professionals in Madrid. He shares a truth every founder eventually faces: there’s no “perfect timing” to start. 1️⃣ It’s not about waiting for the right moment, it’s about knowing what you really want. 2️⃣ The first step isn’t perfecting your idea, it’s making the decision. 3️⃣ And from there, entrepreneurship is about rediscovering yourself every single day. Too soon, too late… those doubts will always be there. What matters is moving, testing, and learning while doing! This isn’t theory. This is Lodgerin Mode ON. #Lodgerin #LodgerinModeON #MadridEasy
