👁️‍🗨️ Investor's perspective: 

"Definic's proprietary Vendor Intelligence technology creates a clear and defensible moat in a market long overdue for disruption. Having followed Robert, Lukáš and Michal for several years, we have seen firsthand the execution discipline and relentless commitment that distinguish exceptional founders. We are convinced Definic is set to redefine the standard for the industry." — Jan Sova, J&T Ventures

💡 It will be spent on: Accelerating expansion into the DACH region, the UK, and the US, plus continued product development.

💬 In their own words:

"Vendor selection today is largely a social process built on relationships, referrals, and reputation. That worked when projects were slower, and the stakes were lower. It doesn't work anymore. Definic is the name that reflects what we are building: a definitive layer of intelligence between enterprises and the vendors they trust with their most critical projects." — Lukáš Řezanina, CEO

"I first met Martin Kešner from J&T Ventures at Vodafone Nápad Roku back in 2023. At that time, we were still early and not yet ready for venture funding, but we stayed in touch and focused on execution... Together with Seed Starter ČS and Slovak Investment Holding, this investment gives us the platform to accelerate product development and take Definic global." — Robert Dečman, co-founder 

💪 Their specialty: An AI-powered vendor intelligence platform that helps enterprises make faster, more informed IT procurement decisions.
