Chloe Capital

Check out the second edition of our new series spotlighting our remarkable portfolio companies and the work they are doing to disrupt their industries! Today we want to highlight JJ Xu, CEO and Founder of TalkMeUp - an AI communication coach at your fingertips. Read on to learn more about JJ and TalkMeUp! ?? What They Do: TalkMeUp leverages proprietary AI to blend effortlessly into customers’ workflows as a SaaS solution. TalkMeUp’s AI-driven approach removes bias from the equation and the platform is built for scale, irrespective of geographical location. ?? Why They Do It: The idea for TalkMeUp originated from a survey JJ did while pursuing her MBA at Carnegie Mellon University. Communication training was ranked the most valuable resource for one’s career success, yet good and affordable training was hard to access, sparking JJ’s mission. ?? How We Met: JJ first met Chloe Capital in 2022 through an introduction from HearstLab, one of our incredible ecosystem partners. JJ was then selected to join our 2022 Invest in Women x Pittsburgh accelerator program. ?? Chloe Effect: TalkMeUp has benefited from our extensive network of partners. As JJ says, Chloe Capital is “wonderful [at] helping us strategize and make introductions to prospects and industry experts”. JJ has also actively given back to the Chloe Capital ecosystem, coming back to mentor the 2024 Invest in Women x Pittsburgh accelerator cohort. ?? What’s Next for TalkMeUp: TalkMeUp has had an exciting year, being named as a Top 20 AI in Training Company by Training Industry, Inc.. They’ve also maintained a 90% renewal rate since their product launched in Q1 2022, a testament to their client-centric approach to growth. Coming soon they’re launching upgraded content metrics that are context aware, providing users with a more personalized learning experience.

We are excited to launch a new series spotlighting our remarkable portfolio companies and the work they are doing to disrupt their industries! Today we want to highlight Tiya Gordon, COO and Co-Founder of itselectric - curbside EV charging specifically built for cities. Read on to learn more about Tiya and it’s electric! ??What They Do: itselectric has crafted a public charging solution to address the infrastructural and environmental justice barriers cities face in the deployment of electric vehicle charging. Instead of requiring costly and time consuming new utility connections, their charging posts connect behind-the-meter to draw spare electrical supply from adjacent buildings. ??Why They Do It: While building it’s electric, Tiya has had many signs and signals that reinforced that she was on the right path, but the one she was most floored by was winning FastCompany’s “Next Big Thing in Tech” Award and being recognized as a product that will define technological innovation for the rest of this decade and beyond. ??How We Met: Tiya first met Chloe Capital in 2022 and she was then selected as one of 20 founders for our inaugural New York City Economic Development Corporation Founder Fellowship program. ??Chloe Effect: Tiya says it best herself, “Chloe Capital has been nothing short of a powerhouse of a network. Anyone we might need, [they] seem to know”. ??What’s Next for itselectric: it’s electric just closed their $6.5mm seed round, co-led by Uber, which will support deployment across seven US cities, including Boston, LA, Detroit, Jersey City, and SF. They’re particularly excited about their expansion into Boston where, supported by the Boston Transportation Department, they plan to deploy hundreds of chargers in the next five years.
