Why We Invested?
We’re thrilled to announce our investment in MarvelX, as part of their €5.4M ($6M) pre-seed round led by EQT Ventures, with Plug and Play and some of the best angels in FinTech.
At Pretiosum Ventures, we back early-stage technical founders reimagining enterprise infrastructure — and MarvelX is doing exactly that. They’re building the AI operating system for financial services, starting with one of the most process-heavy industries: insurance.
Legacy systems, siloed data, and rigid workflows continue to drain ops teams. MarvelX is fixing this with domain-specific AI agents that don’t just chat—they act.
Their platform integrates with existing systems, respects compliance, and handles repetitive work like claims, underwriting support, and fraud detection end-to-end.
Led by Ali El Hassouni (ex-Head of Data & AI at bunq), the MarvelX team brings a rare blend of deep ML expertise and first-hand operational know-how. They’re already live, delivering real value:
✅ Claims processed in minutes
🔍 Real-time fraud detection
📲 Automated customer updates
💰 Clear ROI from day one
The insurance industry is approaching a pivotal moment. As Ali put it in EU Startups:
“For insurers, it’s no longer about if AI will impact their operations—but how fast they can adapt.”
We believe MarvelX is that acceleration layer.
🧠 Backed by some of the brightest minds in AI and fintech, including Jobi George (Weaviate, Microsoft), Mehdi Ghissassi (Google DeepMind), Keith Grose (Plaid, A16Z Scout), Gert Lanckriet (Amazon), and Lennard Zwart (Ascending AI)—this is a team built for impact.
We’re proud to support MarvelX in their mission to bring intelligent automation, control, and transparency to financial services.
Let’s build AI that helps humans focus on what matters most 🙌
