Yuki just emerged from stealth with $6M seed led by Hyperwise Ventures.

What it is: AI-powered data cost optimization platform for Snowflake, BigQuery, and Iceberg data lakes.

The numbers:
• $6M seed round
• 42.6% average cost savings for customers
• 15 employees across Israel, US, UK
• Founded in 2025

How they built it:
• Founders (childhood friends) reunited after decade apart
• Both working in data space independently
• Identified gap: no control plane for data management
• Built metadata-only solution with enterprise security
• Revenue model: percentage of actual savings generated
• Landed customers like Tenable and Angel Studios

The insight: "Data is the only resource no one truly manages" - CEO Ido Arieli Noga
