Array AI Labs
We’ve been actively experimenting with the latest AI products, integrating them into our stack, and sharing our learnings online. Being early adopters is helping us stay close to where the market is moving.
We’ve also been able to spot and highlight some deeply buried features in new AI tools before they became widely known.
The Array Dashboard is now the Array Operating System:The Array dashboard got a major upgrade. We moved from a traditional dashboard setup to a fully agentic system that can take on multiple tasks beyond just operations. We now have specialized agents for marketing, reporting, and several other functions. These agents can function alone or in swarms and coordinate + communicate to get tasks done.
We’re not just investing in the AI stack. We’re running it. Six portfolio companies are already embedded in how we operate day to day, from Hotdata’s federated data layer to Meibel’s runtime orchestration, Sapiom for payments, Wokelo for research, Agency for our meetings intelligence, and Runable for AI-powered content and repeated tasks. Our investment thesis comes from what survives our own workflows.

What Is Trending in Tech AI?
Multi-agent systems crossed the line from research to production this year. Specialized agents that own a domain, coordinate with each other, and run around the clock. Your next department hire will not be a person.
Shared Persistent Memory Infrastructure. Always-on agents generate thousands of decisions a day.
The UI layer is dissolving. Protocols like MCP-UI, AI-native app builders like LastApp, and agents that generate their own interfaces are killing the static dashboard. Your next internal tool might build itself.
Open models are now months behind the frontier, not years. Enterprises that need to own their stack are running both.
Ads are entering AI. As agents handle purchases and decisions, who gets placed inside an agent’s decision flow is the next billion-dollar question.
AI is leaving the screen. World models and robotic simulation are making it possible to train machines in synthetic environments before they touch the real world.
The median burn multiple has fallen below 1.5× for the first time since 2020. Companies are being efficient, revenues are kicking in early. Enterprises and SMBs are willing to pay, pilots are converting.
What Are We Looking To Invest Right Now?
We published a list of things here we are looking to invest and here are few additional things we will add. Email us deals@array.vc if you are building in any of these areas.
Long-Running Agents That Handle Chaos. If agents are the new hires, they need to handle the same mess real employees do. Multi-day tasks, broken integrations, changing requirements. We’re investing in the agents and infrastructure built for that reality.
Runtime Policy Engines. And just like employees, they need rules. Real-time guardrails that control what agents can do and self-correct when they go off track.
Shared persistent Memory Infrastructure for Agent swarms handling multiple tasks together as a team.
AI That Learns From How Humans Actually Work. Zero shot AI trained on Egocentric first-person footage of experts performing various tasks.
Multirobot Orchestration. An abstraction to operate, coordinate and perform tasks across a variety of robotic fleets, legacy robots and the latest AMRs.
Worldmodels. Physics-aware simulation engines that let robots, autonomous vehicles, and industrial systems train on thousands of synthetic scenarios before touching the real world. The infrastructure layer for building and deploying domain-specific world models.
Edge AI. The compression, runtime, and orchestration stack that makes every device intelligent without ever calling the cloud.
Consumer Interfaces. The next interface isn’t chat or voice. AI-native hardware and software that rewires how humans interact with information, make decisions, and navigate the physical world.
