Excited to be leading Kavak’s Series F! In 2017, CEO @carlosjgarciao sent an email to his executive team with the subject line “Let’s hire robots!!!” envisioning a future where Kavak would accomplish 1000x more with automation than humans could do alone. That’s how canny their team is. Building a profitable used-car marketplace in a developing market is very hard, and Kavak essentially had to build 10 companies in one to make up for missing infrastructure. Today they operate profitably across Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and the GCC region. They’ve now rebuilt the company to answer every problem with an AI-first approach. Atoms (vehicle sales) + bits (AI agents) = Kavak is well positioned to be one of the big beneficiaries of the AI revolution. Proud to be partnering with Kavak in our first large, late-stage investment in the region. @santiago__rdz @GEVS94 @a16z

There are hard problems, then there’s building a profitable used-car marketplace in a developing market. But the Kavak team has the rare trait of running towards hard problems, and we’re excited to lead their Series F as they continue enabling fair, transparent, and secure auto ownership for millions of people across Latin America and beyond. When Carlos and the team set out to transform the used-vehicle market in the region, much of the necessary infrastructure just didn’t exist. So Kavak built it all, essentially starting 10+ companies in one. Ten years later, Kavak now operates profitably across Mexico, Brazil, Chile, Argentina, and the GCC region. That brings us to why we’re making our first large, late-stage investment in the region now. The depth of AI adoption across the company is unlike anything else we’ve seen, and they have rearchitected themselves to be AI-native. Combining atoms (vehicle sales) with bits (AI agents), Kavak is well positioned to be one of the big beneficiaries of the AI revolution. By @DavidGeorge83, @santiago__rdz, and @GEVS94 @carlosjgarciao
