WHY THE GARAGE?

Built differently. From zero to a major player in less than five years. Built by an elite team, driven by an elite-unit mentality.

01 / DEPLOYMENT

Real access.
Real-world impact.

Our unique strategic partnerships with leading global banks give portfolio companies direct access to real-world data, infrastructure, industry expertise, and decision-makers. We enable founders to build, validate, and deploy their solutions within sophisticated financial institutions, accelerating their path from product to market.

02 / EXPERTISE

Deep AI expertise.
Built for enterprise

The Garage brings a rare combination of cutting-edge AI expertise and firsthand enterprise technology leadership. Led by Shay Dan, former CTO of Bank Leumi and former commander of Unit 8200’s 1,200-person AI center, we help founders design, build, and scale enterprise-grade AI solutions that work within the complexity of large, established enterprises.
Our extensive network also gives portfolio companies access to exceptional AI talent

03 / TRUST

In the trenches,
not the boardroom

We are builders. We work side by side with founders through the critical 0-to-1 journey, from building the right team and winning first customers to preparing for scale and connecting with top-tier global investors. But don’t take our word for it. Talk to our founders.
