"Today’s recruiters are incredibly busy and have to constantly switch between their work and personal mobiles, WhatsApp, Microsoft Teams, and other channels to communicate with candidates and clients. None of these conversations are being tracked in the CRM or brought together in one place. Recruiters are spending up to two hours a day on manual tasks like writing up call notes, gathering messages and updating CRMs."
The Bristol start-up secured £150k from British Design Fund within a £500k raise to accelerate its AI-driven aquatic rehabilitation platform.
"Pain and joint conditions, collectively known as musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions, affect 20m people in the UK and 1.7bn people globally. Many of these disorders can be effectively treated and managed through water-based therapeutic interventions. However, until now, we have been unable to measure movement in water to assess the power, speed or range of movement with any accuracy. We’re delighted to say Good Boost has cracked that engineering challenge. On the sports side, injuries account for 60% of player absences, with an average of 2.5 injuries per player, per season. Our technology can help ensure that athletes’ recovery, rehab and conditioning is tailored to individual needs, providing analysis and feedback as part of an athlete’s aquatic recovery programme."
The London-based SaaS and fintech platform raised the funds from General Catalyst, Morpheus Ventures and Repeat to further develop its technology stack.
"Goodstack enables its customers to serve all stakeholders—employees, customers, and communities—by supporting nonprofits and charitable giving. The validation and trust that partners like LinkedIn and Canva have in Goodstack is a powerful testament to the company’s value, and combined with strong leadership, positions Goodstack well for continued success."
The seed round was co-led by PT1 and LEA Partners to support team expansion and product development.
"In my previous experience working in architecture practices, the process of getting images and animations made could cost anywhere from a few hundred to £10,000 and take up to two weeks."
