Fifth Dimension stood out for its exceptional founder-market fit, with deep sector and technical expertise behind a focused, vertical-first AI product. Early traction, strong customer validation, and a growing proprietary dataset position the company to lead the modernisation of real estate workflows at a critical moment of market readiness.

Love Ventures brings sector-specific expertise and strategic access to Fifth Dimension — providing introductions to senior decision-makers across the property industry, hands-on support with product development and go-to-market strategy, and guidance on technical scaling and team growth. With a patient capital approach, Love Ventures continues to back the team as they refine product-market fit and build the category-defining platform for vertical AI.

Just Move In is building the infrastructure behind one of life’s most complex moments: the home move. With a seasoned leadership team, strong revenue growth, and trusted clients across the property sector, the company is well positioned to scale. Its deep API integrations and flexible platform approach create meaningful barriers to entry, enabling seamless adoption by agencies without disrupting their existing systems.

Love Ventures backed Just Move In based on strong alignment with its core investment criteria - founder-market fit, technical strength, growing revenues, and a clear path to profitability. With deep understanding of the proptech landscape and the nuances of the B2B2C model, we recognise Just Move In’s strategic advantage in integrating with, rather than replacing, existing estate agency systems. Our investment provided the team with the capital to scale sales, marketing, and product development. Love Ventures shares the long-term vision for the business to reach significant market penetration and become a category leader in move management infrastructure.

Kaizan addresses a critical blind spot in modern business operations: customer retention. While most tools focus on acquisition, Kaizan uses generative AI to unlock retention intelligence through real-time communication insights. Led by repeat founder Glen Calvert and technical co-founder Pravin Paratey, the team brings deep startup and engineering experience. Early traction with zero churn and growing revenues signals clear product-market fit, while its proprietary dataset builds a defensible moat over time. In a market where customer success is more valuable than ever, Kaizan is well positioned to define a new category.

Love Ventures holds a board observer seat, providing ongoing strategic input and support on fundraising. Kaizan benefits from our advisor network, including enterprise go-to-market expertise from leaders like Kelly Ducourty (ex-Google, UiPath), as well as access to potential commercial tie-ins across our portfolio. Our patient capital approach allows the team to focus on sustainable growth, while our strategic guidance across product, sales, and marketing helps sharpen execution. As Kaizan scales, we’re committed to supporting their Series A journey with targeted VC introductions and preparation.

Kato’s founding team brings a rare blend of industry insight, with deep understanding of the challenges from both the agency and legal perspectives. Early traction with blue-chip clients, including seven major landlords and rapid deal execution with GPE in the first fortnight, validated the immediate need for the solution. The product delivers clear ROI by reducing void periods and accelerating income, addressing pain points that have long been underserved. With strong client feedback, network-led growth, and first-mover advantage in a complex space, Kato is positioned to reshape commercial property transactions. Love Ventures sees a compelling opportunity in the team, the traction, and the financial upside.

Love Ventures brings strategic sector expertise through deep proptech and real estate experience across the team, including Adrian Love, Andrew Hynard, and Rob Hamilton. The fund's investment thesis aligns closely with Kato’s mission, with prior backing of platforms like Aprao and Movewise that similarly streamline legacy industry processes. Beyond capital, Love Ventures provides hands-on strategic guidance, customer introductions, and connections to relevant future investors. The team recognises the unique growth dynamics of enterprise proptech and offers patient, long-term support.

Founder and CEO Natasha’s background spans algorithmic trading, climate fintech investing at Octopus Ventures, and a master’s in solar policy, which gives her a rare read on both the finance and the physical asset side of this market. The timing is right alongside her: solar is one of the few parts of the energy transition that hasn’t been touched by anti-ESG sentiment, capacity is compounding globally, and the operational tooling underneath it is still stuck in spreadsheets and legacy monitoring platforms built decades ago. Whoever lands the first wave of major asset managers and infrastructure funds has a real shot at tipping the whole market, and we think Metris is best placed to be that company.

Our role is to open doors to the infrastructure funds and asset owners Metris sells to, drawing on our network of high-net-worth individuals, family offices and contacts across the solar and renewables world. As the commercial team grows and starts chasing bigger accounts, we’ll be helping sharpen the go-to-market approach and figure out which metrics actually matter at this stage.

Founder and CEO James Morris-Manuel brings a rare combination of expertise for this problem: deep operating experience scaling a construction-adjacent business (he led EMEA for Matterport through its growth and exit) paired with deep domain knowledge of how contractors actually buy materials. The timing matters too as construction companies are being squeezed by thin margins while merchants sit on much fatter ones, and the sector remains one of the least digitised in the economy. That gap between financial pressure and low technology adoption creates real room for a company that can bring AI and better credit infrastructure into the industry’s daily workflow.

What sets Prolo apart structurally is where it sits in the market and how it’s built. Mid-market contractors are underserved by both the simple, small-basket marketplaces built for DIY buyers and the enterprise procurement software built for large forward-bought projects, leaving a clear gap for a company built specifically for how mid-sized contractors actually order materials. The business model is also sensibly de-risked: Prolo sources and finances orders through regulated third-party credit partners rather than carrying inventory or purchasing risk itself, so growth doesn’t come with balance sheet exposure. Because Prolo sits at the point of purchase rather than at the bidding or document stage, it naturally accumulates the pricing, spec and supplier data that should make its procurement smarter and faster over time.

We’re helping open doors to construction customers and to other investors who understand two-sided marketplace and procurement businesses, drawing on our own network and relationships across the sector. As Prolo builds out its commercial engine, we’re a sounding board on go-to-market strategy and helping think through how the business scales from a founder-led motion into a repeatable sales process.

Residently is led by proven entrepreneur Tom Allason, who previously founded Shutl and eCourier. The platform delivers clear product-market fit by addressing inefficiencies across the full tenancy lifecycle and connecting agents and property managers on shared portfolios.

Love Ventures supports Residently through strategic sector expertise in proptech and a deep understanding of rental market dynamics. The team provides valuable introductions to institutional partners, guidance on fundraising preparation, and hands-on support across legal, hiring, and operations. With a patient capital approach, Love Ventures shares Residently’s long-term vision to build a marketplace layered on top of a profitable SaaS foundation.

SalesDesk impressed with its experienced founding team, having previously built and exited a successful SaaS business, and its mature, highly polished product developed over two years. The platform secured a strong anchor customer who transitioned from Salesforce - validating both the value proposition and the ability to win enterprise accounts. With technical differentiation in understanding video, sentiment and facial expressions, plus strong co-investors, SalesDesk is well positioned to redefine how sales teams engage and convert.

Love Ventures brings strategic go-to-market expertise and deep understanding of the B2B sales tech landscape to help SalesDesk scale. Our team provides hands-on support with product roadmap development, key hiring, and advisor introductions, alongside access to enterprise customers. With international fundraising experience and strong US connections, we’re well placed to support future rounds and global growth. Our patient capital approach aligns with SalesDesk’s long-term ambition to unify fragmented point solutions into a superior platform.

Verna has demonstrated exceptional early traction, reaching profitability within seven months of launch, providing clear proof of product-market fit. The team combines deep policy expertise with lived experience in the biodiversity ecosystem, earning strong credibility in a complex and evolving space. By embedding directly into local authority workflows, Verna creates powerful network effects that naturally extend to developers, infrastructure firms, and ecological consultants.
