Jenz raises €540,000 pre-seed for retail operations software

Antler and Ada Ventures invested in the Norwegian retail AI startup.

The company also received a separate NOK1 million startup grant from Innovation Norway. Jenz began onboarding pilot customers in late August after its founders won a Norwegian AI hackathon in June.

Pilot customers have assigned the platform more than 3,000 tasks across over 20 back-office systems, according to the company. Jenz plans to take the service beyond the Nordics, including a UK launch within nine months.
