I’m proud to share that at Parter we’ve raised $5.5 million in Seed funding, led by StageOne Ventures, with participation from Zenda Capital, Mercer Ventures, and strategic angels including Shmil Levy, former Sequoia partner, executives from Cisco, and the founders of Avalor, Datorama, Epsagon, and Innoviz.

This funding marks a major milestone in our mission to bring AI to the heart of hardware operations, transforming how companies design, source, and manufacture in an increasingly unpredictable world.

Hardware Needs a New Operating System

We’re living in an era where supply chains shift overnight, tariffs spike costs without warning, and components disappear mid-development. Engineering and supply chain teams are still expected to move fast, cut costs, and deliver on time.

But their tools haven’t kept up.
Too much still runs on outdated systems, scattered spreadsheets, and disconnected processes that slow teams down and expose companies to risk.

At Parter, we believe hardware teams deserve better.
They need a unified system that turns complexity into clarity and empowers them to act fast, avoid disruption, and build with confidence.

That’s what we’re building.

Designed for Crisis, Built for Confidence

Parter is an AI-native platform built for the real-world needs of electronics producers across R&D, engineering, sourcing, and manufacturing.

We connect fragmented data from BOMs, datasheets, ERP and PLM systems, PDFs, and spreadsheets, and structure it into one intelligent system. Our AI agents validate and enrich every line, surface risks, suggest alternatives, predict tariffs and obsolescence, and help teams stay aligned.

We’re not building another dashboard.
We’re building the operating system for hardware decision-making.

What Parter delivers:

• BOM AI Analyzer to clean, structure, and audit part-level data

• Predictive alerts for tariffs, end-of-life, and compliance risks

• AI-powered alternatives for at-risk or obsolete components

• Sourcing and quoting automation to reduce delays and manual effort

• Collaboration tools that connect engineering and supply chain workflows

With Parter, companies can shift from reactive problem-solving to proactive execution.

Backed by a Strategic Network

This funding allows us to accelerate product development, scale our operations, and grow our team in the U.S. and beyond. We’re backed by some of the most experienced minds in AI, supply chain, and enterprise infrastructure - and we’re just getting started.

We’re now hiring across engineering, sales, and go-to-market. We’re looking for people excited to build the future of hardware operations and help us solve one of the most complex and overlooked challenges in manufacturing today.

At Parter, we believe complexity is a given - but confusion isn’t.
Our mission is to help the people who build the world’s hardware move faster, make better decisions, and stay resilient in a rapidly changing global landscape.
