News of the Day

Rune Technologies, co-founded by a former U.S. Army officer and an ex-Meta engineer, has raised a $24 million Series A to modernize military logistics with AI. While most defence startups focus on hardware, Rune’s TyrOS platform uses deep learning and optimization to forecast supply needs, plan resource movement, and operate offline in disconnected environments. Pilots with the U.S. Army and Marine Corps helped secure backing from investors including a16z and Human Capital. With a veteran-heavy team and ties to Palantir and Anduril, Rune aims to automate the flow of data from battlefield logistics to strategic industrial decisions—bringing defense supply chains into the AI age.

This startup went viral for delivering custom doormats to 100+ fast-growing companies. Spoiler: they generated $500k in pipeline from it and it only cost $6k. urns out they also help you get SOC 2 compliant in 15 hours, not months. It’s no surprise that the best AI companies like Lovable, Bland, Wispr Flow, and 100s more are choosing them for compliance. Get compliant in hours not months and unlock more deals. Book a demo here and use code ELITE1K for $1,000 off + free doormat when you get compliant (they are pretty cool). *
