Company 8 — for investors
Company 8 is raising a pre-seed round. The thesis: every operator is flying blind between dashboards and analysts. Dan is the AI layer that answers any question about a business in plain English — and says what to do about it.
- Product: Dan is live at usedan.com, with early users on the platform.
- Why now: AI finally lets anyone query their entire business in plain English and get an action, not a chart.
- Why this founder: Meet Patel spent years as the human "Dan" — the operator everyone asked what was happening in the business and what to do — as Chief of Staff and interim COO inside a fintech. He lived the problem Dan solves and is going all-in on Company 8.
