Labs

Seed Round in 2025
Labs Companies, Inc. (branded and doing business as Labs) is an American global human-enhancement technology company headquartered in Santa Monica, CA. Established in 2025 through a restructuring of LavLabs Inc., Labs now serves as the parent holding company of LavLabs, itself apart of seven core family of labs: Labs Intelligence, Labs Realities, Labs Blocks, Labs Crypto, LabsX, Factory5227 and several specialized multi-labs. Each lab is dedicated to advancing human capabilities through transformative products, services, platforms, and technologies (PSPTs) in AI, digital economies, immersive realities, consumer internet, wearables and social experiences. The Labs Manifesto: Humanizing every moment on the internet. Our name “Labs” celebrates the field of Chemistry, and our test-tube emblem, Chemí (/kim-me/), reflects our commitment to innovation. At Labs, our mission is to inspire creativity with innovative-ideas that help build communities and advance human capabilities. We believe that every human on the planet could thrive greatly with equal access and opportunity to technology. Through our flagship, franchise, framework and fandom, family of brands, we create transformative human-experiences that connect humanity through creativity, community, and innovation. Our ecosystems and economies spans across a core and specialized family of labs, including Labs Financial Group (managing Labs Payments, Yuhmmy Wallet and financial solutions within the FinTaste ecosystem), Labs Investor Group (managing early-stage, growth-stage, CVC, fund-of-funds, hedge fund, mutual fund, ETF, index fund and pension fund investments through Labs Ventures, Labs Capital, Labs Investments, Labs Funds, Labs Equity and Labs Shares), Labs Realty Group (managing YuhmmyHouse, a Social-Taste Super Club and the Tastespitality Ecosystem), Labs Start Studios (Hatch Studio, Launch Studio, and Lift Studio for entrepreneurial enhancements), Labs Learn Studios (Labs University, Labs Academy, and Labs Institute for educational enhancements), Labs Entertainment (managing Yuhmmyevents and its annual Yuhmmylicious Week and CraveCon), Labs Media (managing the official podcast by Labs: TechTubeTalks, and Yuhmmy: TastefulTalks). Our inaugural family of brand is Yuhmmy, the world’s first Social-Taste Super Brand and ecosystem designed for discovering, experiencing, and sharing anything tasty. Its Yuhmmy App brings people together to explore food, drinks, sweets, snacks, and recreational flavors in fun, funny, and flavorfully engaging ways. Featuring innovative tools like Tastechat, Taste Sports, Taste Drops, Cravecash, YuhmmyAI, and Yuhmmy AR/VR, Yuhmmy empowers a revolutionary “Tasteconomy” driven by Taste Intelligence. Labs is committed to reshaping the future of human-enhancements, seamlessly merging digital and physical worlds to redefine engagement, empowerment, education and earning. Our Labs Foundations supports sustainability, S.T.E.A.M. education, and scholarships for underserved communities through 5227.org and Lifthumankind.org, committing 1% of proceeds and resources via pledge 1%.
