Welcome to our weekly edition of Seed Watch- a segment of Market Insyte Digest focused on sharing some of the latest and most intriguing Pre-seed & Seed funding news grabbing the headlines in the startup world. Find out the top 3 deals from this week that caught our eye.
Startup Name: Arbiter
Industry: HealthTech
Region: United States
Amount (USD): $52 million
The problem it is solving: Arbiter addresses the massive fragmentation in healthcare systems — data silos, disconnected software tools, and administrative inefficiencies that slow down referrals, scheduling, and patient engagement. Clinicians lack unified patient data, and providers struggle to automate routine workflows. Arbiter centralises medical data, identifies health risks, and uses AI to automate administrative tasks so providers can operate more proactively and efficiently.
What the Funds Will Be Spent On: Scaling AI infrastructure to automate actions across payers and providers. Expanding its unified “operating spine” product that automates referrals and coordination. Pursuing strategic acquisitions to strengthen data capabilities and workflow automation. Growing partnerships with major health plans and provider networks. Accelerating market expansion enabled by family office–backed distribution channels.
Startup Name: YouWare
Industry: AI
Region: China
Amount (USD): $50 million
The problem it is solving: Traditional software development remains slow, complex, and inaccessible to millions of potential creators who lack coding skills. YouWare solves this by enabling users to build software using natural language prompts, visuals, and mobile inputs—removing the barrier of programming knowledge. It aims to democratise full-stack app creation, making software development as simple as describing an idea.
What the Funds Will Be Spent On: Scaling its AI-native platform and expanding mobile capabilities. Growing its global presence and teams across China, the U.S., and Japan. Improving its in-house MCP architecture, backend systems, and model-switching technology. Supporting product expansion, including the new iOS/Android YouWare app.
Startup Name: AKA Foods
Industry: FoodTech
Region: Israel
Amount (USD): $17.2 million
The problem it is solving: Food companies hold massive amounts of valuable R&D knowledge, but it is scattered, underutilised, and slow to translate into new products. Traditional formulation cycles take years and require manual experimentation, siloed data, and costly trial-and-error. AKA Foods solves this by unifying sensory data, R&D information, ingredient specs, and regulations into a secure AI system—AKA Studio—that dramatically accelerates development while preserving confidentiality.
What the Funds Will Be Spent On: Global deployment of the AKA Studio platform to enterprise clients. Advancing the underlying sensory–AI science. Strengthening the secure SaaS and on-premise system architecture. Expanding capabilities toward additional industries.
