Announcing Nozomio's $6.2M round, led by CRV, BoxGroup, and LocalGlobe

I started Nozomio in high school six months ago as an AI agent for codebases that could cross-reference multiple repos, answer questions, and help developers onboard themselves. I failed.

But I knew there was something in the agent space that every developer wants: the right context.

Right before my Y Combinator batch, I was struggling to give coding agents the right context. They missed versions, filled up the context window, and used incorrect frameworks. That is when I built the first iteration of Nia, which is now an augmentation layer for AI agents.

Context is the most important problem in the agent space. It prevents AI systems from achieving superhuman code intelligence, and I want to solve it.

The current state of Nia might change a thousand times, but the problem will stay the same. Even as an MCP, which is very novel and underdeveloped, Nia has already improved every coding agent by at least 30%. I am on the mission to 100x it.

This round was led by CRV, BoxGroup, and LocalGlobe, with participation from Y Combinator and 20VC Product. I am also backed by world-class angel investors, including:

- Paul Graham (Founder of Y Combinator) - Joshua Schachter, Founder of del.icio.us (acq. by Yahoo) and Tasty Labs (acq. by Walmart) - Gustav Söderström (Co-President, CTO at Spotify) - Thomas Wolf (Co-founder of Hugging Face) - Richard Aberman (Founder of WePay (YC S09) and former YC Visiting Partner) - Michael Fertik (Founder of Reputation, Modelcode AI, Heroic VC) - Tomer Cohen (CPO at LinkedIn) - Jack Brody (CPO at Suno) - Geoff Charles (CPO at Ramp) - Sabrina Hahn - Kulveer Taggar, Founder of Zeus (YC S11) and Auctomatic (YC W07) - Chris Howard (Ritual Capital)

Nozomio is also backed by people associated with OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Databricks, Airbnb, and Microsoft.

I am hiring. I am solo right now and will stay under 20 employees until IPO. Apply if you are crazy enough.
