Payze is a Tbilisi-based payment-orchestration and acquiring layer built specifically for merchants operating across the Caucasus, CIS, and Eastern European markets, where a single global PSP rarely has strong enough local rails to cover the whole corridor. The platform gives e-commerce operators and marketplaces one API for card processing, Apple Pay and Google Pay, local bank methods, tokenization, and — crucially — automated split payments that route a single customer charge to multiple beneficiaries (sellers, drivers, partners) without building custom ledger logic. Founded in 2020, Payze has raised from Y Combinator (W22 cohort) and 500 Global via the 500 Georgia/Eurasia program, and is backed locally by GITA, the Georgian Innovation and Technology Agency. It is one of the clearest examples of a Georgian B2B fintech that has converted the country's position as a regional crossroads between Europe, Turkey, and the CIS into a commercial wedge in payments infrastructure.

Phubber is a Tbilisi-based fashion re-commerce marketplace that combines the feed-driven social-shopping pattern popularized by Depop and Vinted with a mixed C2C and small-B2C inventory model tuned for the Caucasus. Buyers browse a scrollable, algorithmically ranked feed of pre-loved and indie-brand apparel; sellers can list in minutes with photos taken directly from the app; and the platform handles payments, local delivery integration, return flows, and dispute mediation so that trust — the usual blocker in peer-to-peer fashion — is not the user's problem. Phubber emerged as a breakout from the 500 Georgia/Eurasia program and is one of the more visible consumer-marketplace experiments coming out of Georgia, where most local tech is still B2B and fintech. It is a useful data point on how social-commerce patterns originally built for Western Gen-Z audiences are being re-implemented for emerging regional markets.

Theneo is a Georgian-founded developer-tools company building AI-assisted API documentation and developer portals, competing directly with Stripe-style 'beautiful docs' experiences and tools like Readme.com, Mintlify, and GitBook's API product. The core insight is that most companies ship OpenAPI or Postman specs but produce documentation that is perpetually out-of-date and unusable by developer customers; Theneo ingests the spec, uses LLMs to generate structured guides, code examples, and quickstarts around it, and then keeps the doc in sync as the API surface changes. Founded by Ana Robakidze, Kate Avetisian, and Tamar Kvezereli, Theneo graduated from Y Combinator's W22 batch and has raised seed capital from tier-one US investors — it is one of the first Georgian startups to reach that kind of Silicon Valley visibility and is a useful flagship for Tbilisi's emerging developer-tools scene.
