And now for this week’s prescription:

On this week’s dose, you’ll first hear about Fizz (1:48), a startup that is helping young adults boost their financial literacy and build credit through their reward-earning debit card, hot off a $14.4M seed round led by Kleiner Perkins.

Next, we’ll talk about Tender (6:33), a startup that’s revolutionizing the plant-based meat industry with their innovative fiber spinning technology, fresh off an $11M Series A funding led by Rhapsody Venture Partners.

And lastly, we’ll close out this week’s dose with a breakdown on GPTZero (11:21), the leading platform for AI-generated content detection and responsible AI adoption, and their $10M Series A led by Footwork Co-founder Nikhil Basu Trivedi.

Debit cards, plant-based meat, and AI-detection; another diverse spread of startups for this week’s dose.
