A Strategic Move Toward the Future of Business Optimization

At Early Game Ventures, we’re always on the lookout for visionary startups that are pushing the boundaries of technology. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce our latest investment of €1M in CogniSync, a Romanian-founded AI startup that’s changing the game for how companies scale and stay compliant.

This investment is particularly significant for us, as it marks the second deal from our EGV Fund II, which closed at €60M earlier this year. CogniSync isn’t just another AI tool—it's a powerful writing companion that helps businesses optimize their workflows by ensuring alignment with internal best practices and compliance standards. The AI behind CogniSync doesn't just assist; it actively helps businesses avoid costly mistakes by surfacing critical insights at the right moment.

For example, imagine a scenario where you're about to commit to a $8M investment, only for CogniSync to remind you that your mandate caps investments at $4M. It’s this kind of intelligent support that sets CogniSync apart and makes it a valuable asset for any business scaling rapidly.

The startup is led by two exceptional founders, Luca Mateescu and Alex Vesa, who bring a wealth of experience and a bold vision that aligns perfectly with our approach to investing in cutting-edge technology. As Luca Mateescu, CEO of CogniSync, puts it: “Having managed large teams in fast-scaling enterprises, I understand that internal alignment and continuous learning is paramount for all enterprises as they scale – CogniSync aims to automate this process.”From our perspective at Early Game, AI is more than just a trend—it’s a transformative technology that will touch every industry. That’s why we’re excited about CogniSync’s potential to make a significant impact across the board.

Cristian Munteanu, our Managing Partner, highlighted this perfectly: “At Early Game, we don’t think of AI as an industry or a vertical, but rather as a horizontal: a technology that traverses all industries and opens a new world of possibilities for incumbents and newcomers.”And it’s not just about the technology; it’s also about how it integrates into the daily workflows of users. Dan Calugareanu, our Partner at EGV, emphasized this when he said, “What we liked most was that the AI integrated in CogniSync’s product is always on, always ready to assist the user in a way that is perfectly integrated into the user’s habits.”

This is just the beginning, and we’re confident that with our support, CogniSync will lead the way in revolutionizing how businesses approach scaling, compliance, and internal alignment. Stay tuned—there’s much more to come!
