NEW YORK, NY, Oct 16, 2026 – Evolutionary Operating System (Evos) has raised $9M in pre-seed funding to expand software that learns employees’ operational decisions and performs tasks within existing business systems. The company will use the funding to grow its team and reach more small and midsize businesses.
Uncork Capital and Field Ventures co-led the round, with participation from Crosslink Capital, Utopia Capital Management, Sandwith Ventures and angel investors.
Evos operators learn from employees’ decisions and behavioral patterns rather than text. Each operator handles a business function, with customers choosing how much oversight to retain. According to Evos, an operator acts independently only after its decisions consistently match the team’s.
“The most capable system in many of these businesses is the person who has been there 20 years, and what they know has never been written down,” said Urav Shah, founder and CEO of Evos. “An Evos operator learns the job from these people, improves on it, and proves it can match them before it takes on any work by itself. Our goal is to put that expertise on every job, every day, so these businesses can run like the best in the world do.”
Evos describes its software as self-service and an operator can move from discovery to deployment in 24 hours. It compares that with nine to 18 months for work delivered by consultants or implementation partners, without specifying the workloads used in the comparison. Evos calls its three-step deployment process “Trifecta”: one hour with customer experts, a working AI operator the next day and results within a month.
At one freight brokerage, an Evos operator audits every LTL carrier invoice against the brokerage’s TMS. Evos says the operator made nearly 3,500 audit decisions at 97% accuracy during its first two months. The company also reports that the operator “closed out” more than $600,000 in invoice value during the most recent five weeks.
“Evos has helped us revolutionize our billing process with zero upfront investment, and also at an impressively fast speed measured in days and weeks,” said Mike Chalfant, president of MyFreightWorld. “It’s increased our accuracy and dramatically increased efficiency, which has ultimately led to a better experience for our customer base. The performance of the operator has given us confidence and excitement to continue to add to the functionality and explore new possibilities. Adding Evos to the stack has been a terrific thing for our Company, and we’re excited to continue to grow our partnership.”
“For decades, software sold to industrial businesses has helped people organize and track work, but it has stopped short of doing the work,” said Richard Kerby, partner at Field Ventures. “Evos changes that. Its autonomous operators learn the judgment behind how a business runs, work within existing systems, and take ownership of entire operational functions. The speed at which Urav and his team have turned that vision into measurable customer value is exceptional, and we believe Evos can become the operating layer for the physical economy.”
“Most software helps industrial businesses keep track of their work, but for the first time, Evos is helping them get it done,” said Tripp Jones, general partner at Uncork Capital. “What stood out to me immediately is how quickly teams are putting Evos’s autonomous operators to work on core parts of their business without a long technology roll out. That puts powerful technology within reach of businesses that software has long overlooked. Urav is one of the most impressive founders I’ve worked with, and we’re thrilled to back him.”
Evos plans to launch the Workhorse platform in the coming weeks.
