We want to revolutionize fruit waste. More than 40% of the fruits end up in the garbage generating problems to the environment and expenses in the transfer. This is why we ask ourselves, how is it possible that this nutritional potential ends up in the garbage? So we develop a technology that allows us to recover the nutrients from fruits beforethey reach the garbage and create a superfood, very high in dietary fiber, prebiotics, antioxidants, and phytosterols. The liquid waste is transformed into juice without additives. We avoid causing negative impacts on the environment and make a better world, with better food. | $130K / Pre-Seed / May 13, 2025 | |

SafetyMind
|
SafetyMind is revolutionizing industrial safety and operational efficiency in Latin America's most demanding sectors, including mining, steel manufacturing, and logistics. The problem is critical: traditional safety methods are reactive, costly, and unable to prevent serious accidents and unplanned operational shutdowns that cost the industrybillions annually. Human supervision, by its nature, cannot provide continuous and objective 24/7 monitoring in high-risk environments.Our SaaS platform transforms clients' existing security camera infrastructure into a proactive and intelligent prevention system. Using an advanced Artificial Vision architecture, which includes Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and Edge Computing, we detect incident precursors in real-time—such as dangerous human-machine interactions or the non-use of critical PPE—with a precision and speed unattainable by the human eye.SafetyMind's clients achieve a tangible ROI. We have demonstrated a 30% increase in the reporting of unsafe acts in mining operations with Gold Fields and 100% effectiveness in detecting PPE use and access to high-risk zones in pilots with Ferrostaal. Our vision is to become the standard operating system for risk management in Latin America, a market with an urgent need for proven technology. The founding team combines over 17 years of on-the-ground risk prevention experience (Mario Villalobos, COO) with deep expertise in AI development since 2016 (Gloria Aburto, CMO). | $12.5K / Pre-Seed / Jun 22, 2022 | |
