Tomáš Čupr’s new startup **Duvo** secures **$32M in Series A funding** (totaling **$48M**) to deploy AI agents that map undocumented workplace processes—termed the ‘human API’—and automate workflows across enterprise systems. The platform, targeting retailers and consumer goods firms, reduces manual process discovery (traditionally handled by consultancies) from months to weeks while cutting labor costs. Duvo claims **$100M+ in client value unlocked**, including a **70-day to 15-day reduction** in supplier-bonus reconciliation for Notino. It also partners with **Deloitte Central Europe** and offers on-premise AI model deployment to address European data privacy concerns. Čupr, a former Rohlik Group founder, envisions self-deployable enterprise AI, eliminating the need for specialized engineering teams.
