General Catalyst co-leads Serval seed round, betting on AI-native IT automation
syhw · x · 2026-10-23
General Catalyst reveals it co-led Serval's seed round, committing after the first meeting. Founder Jake's key customer interview question — "what would you hand to someone hired to sit next you and do your work?" — revealed IT teams find building automations slower than doing tasks manually, leaving them resetting passwords week after week. Serval automates the automations for employee-supporting teams, which GC believes defines the future of agentic workflows and disrupts traditional SaaS.
