The Startups I Invest In

I target startups that demonstrate how peace-driven innovation increases revenue and reduces costs compared to traditional competitors. These startups leverage technology, particularly AI, to create scalable solutions with societal impact and strong financial returns.

I specifically look for ventures that leverage peace as a tool to increase efficiency and profitability, using it not just as a value, but as a competitive advantage. My goal is to partner with startups that promote peace as a core strategy while addressing large, untapped markets with significant growth potential.

Examples

Empathetic Cybersecurity Protection
--------------------

Founded by cyber unit veterans turned serial entrepreneurs, this platform prevents threats by understanding motivations—promoting peace and trust not only within teams but also between stakeholders, including customers, using AI to scale internal security as culture, not control...

Business Model: Instead of treating security incidents as isolated events, the system analyzes behavioral patterns and emotional signals within tools like Slack and Teams. It proactively suggests empathetic actions—such as reframed messages or silent mediation cues—to reduce tension before it becomes a threat.

Target Audience: Global organizations with culturally diverse teams, especially those operating in regions with political tension (e.g., Middle East, Eastern Europe).

Market Potential: $150 billion cybersecurity market with a $20B+ niche in proactive, peace-aligned threat prevention. Ideal for acquisition by Microsoft, Salesforce, or Palantir.

YC-Style “Android” for AI Agents
--------------------

Created by alumni of a unicorn-scale AI platform and a widely adopted utility, this startup delivers peaceful digital experiences through an OS for AI agents—like Android, but built for expressive, emotionally intelligent agents that guide users online with ease and personality...

Business Model: In response to multiple categories in Y Combinator’s Spring 2025 RFS—Browser & Computer Automation, B2A Interfaces, Vertical AI Agents, and Devtools for AI Agents—this product reimagines the internet as a space where AI agents collaborate with users in deeply personal, socially shareable ways. Whether rewriting the news in your voice, replying to messages in your tone, or reflecting your worldview back to you, these agents feel like allies, not tools. The platform supports a creator-driven ecosystem, where agents are built, personalized, and monetized like cultural artifacts, not code.

Target Audience: Mainstream internet users who are overwhelmed by daily digital routines—checking messages, reading news, filling forms—and want help that feels personal, human, and emotionally aware. Also appeals to creators and developers looking to build expressive AI companions instead of sterile productivity bots.

Market Potential: Positioned at the convergence of automation, consumer AI, and creator tooling, this startup creates a new category of AI-native digital life. By replacing repetitive strain with emotionally resonant, collaborative web experiences, it perfectly aligns with PeaceTech’s mission to transform digital pressure into peaceful, personalized flow.

Peace-Aligned AI Healthcare Agent
--------------------

An AI agent that integrates displaced and immigrant doctors into healthcare systems—scaling access, reducing costs, and fostering peace through culturally competent care...

Business Model: MediPair uses LLM-powered agentic workflows to safely deploy medically trained but unlicensed professionals in non-diagnostic roles such as triage, health education, and chronic care follow-up. The AI ensures compliance, cultural alignment, and real-time escalation to licensed clinicians. Revenue comes from licensing the platform to clinics, telehealth providers, and public health systems struggling with workforce shortages and access gaps.

Target Audience: Community clinics, public health systems, value-based care providers, and digital-first health platforms operating in multicultural or underserved areas.

Market Potential: $560 billion global telehealth market, with a fast-emerging $30B+ vertical in AI care agents. Positioned for acquisition by Teladoc, Optum, Doctolib, or Amazon Health.

Exit Potential: Large healthcare incumbents are urgently investing in vertical AI to address staff shortages and Gen Z health access. Amazon acquired One Medical for $3.9B. Teladoc's market cap exceeds $3B. This startup offers them a peace-driven labor unlock with defensible AI architecture.

Entertaining YC-style AI Browser
--------------------

Built by the founders behind a 30M+ MAU browser and a unicorn, this YC-style browser behaves like TikTok to maximize engagement—then channels that attention toward peaceful narratives that improve monetization...

Business Model: In response to Y Combinator’s Spring 2025 RFS for browser innovation, this product redefines how users experience the web—turning traditional browsing into a TikTok-style content stream that’s emotionally sticky, continuously engaging, and far more monetizeable. Instead of doomscrolling or jumping tabs, users stay immersed in short-form, fact-based, feel-good content that promotes peaceful civic engagement and shared values. Monetization comes through ad models, affiliate stories, and native branded content that thrive on time-on-site and trust.

Target Audience: Gen Z, digital natives, creators, and casual users—especially those tired of divisive algorithms but still addicted to fast, entertaining formats.

Market Potential: $70B global browser and content discovery market. A high-value acquisition target for Big Tech (Meta, Samsung, Amazon), alt platforms (Truth Social, X), or any player looking to win the attention war through peaceful, high-retention engagement.

Peaceful Insurtech
--------------------

Created by founders of a successful insurtech exit, this startup targets peace-aligned customers—careful drivers, health-conscious individuals, and low-risk communities—to create an insurance portfolio with lower claims, minimal fraud, and superior lifetime value...

Business Model: Rather than incentivizing good behavior, this model filters for it. By focusing acquisition on customers with peaceful lifestyles and values—non-aggressive, community-oriented, and mindful—the platform builds a portfolio with significantly lower loss ratios and minimal fraud exposure.

Target Audience: Health-conscious individuals, safety-first drivers, and small business owners with conflict-averse mindsets and strong reputational stakes.

Exit Potential: Global insurers like Allianz ($100B), AXA ($65B), and Zurich Insurance ($65B) are pouring billions into M&A as they struggle to reach digital-native, low-risk customers through legacy channels.
