We invested a total of $150,000 in Ranking Copilot 🚀
($100,000 initial check + $50,000 follow-on)

Ranking Copilot is building an AI-powered legal tech platform that helps law firms prepare directory submissions, capability statements, and fee proposals faster and with higher accuracy.
Law firms spend weeks and billions globally on these workflows every year. Ranking Copilot automates the most time-intensive parts and helps teams complete in ~30 minutes what traditionally took 5–7 days.
The platform is already used by 30+ law firms across Europe, the US, and APAC.

This investment fully aligns with our thesis at ZAS Ventures. We back high-growth, capital-efficient AI products built by Ukrainian founders and scaling globally. Ranking Copilot is a strong example of this approach.

💪🏻 The team has deep expertise, with backgrounds at Clifford Chance, Freshfields, Linklaters, and Thomson Reuters, shaping a clear product vision and ex*****on roadmap.
Why we invested:
☑️ A large, overlooked segment of the global legal tech market
☑️ Strong early traction and clear customer demand
☑️ A partnership with Chambers and Partners, providing a unique distribution advantage
☑️ An experienced, focused, founder-led product team

We’re excited to support Ranking Copilot as they expand into new markets and change how legal teams win business 🔥

Another milestone for ZAS Ventures. And we are proud of it! 🚀

Our Founder and Managing Partner, Andriy Zinchuk, has officially graduated from Decile Group’s Venture Institute Batch II, one of the most selective venture capital training programs globally. The 8-week program helps VC firms strengthen their strategy, structure, and institutional LP readiness.

For us, this is more than a certificate. As a VC firm backing Ukrainian founders with global ambition, we need to grow at the same pace as the teams we support. The program gave Andrew new tools and frameworks that will help ZAS Ventures continue to refine our operations and the firm’s long-term architecture.

It also builds on our experience as alumni of VC Lab Batch 3. We are shaping a firm grounded in strong principles, transparent processes, and a clear vision for Ukraine’s tech potential.

We thank the Venture Institute and Decile Group teams for the guidance and community. We are glad to be part of a network shaping the next generation of VC firms.

A proud moment for our team. Strong momentum for what comes next. 😉

+1 investment in the ZAS Ventures portfolio 🚀

We backed Every Health — a startup that fits perfectly into our investment thesis to support Ukrainian and European founders building on underserved markets and scaling globally.

Every Health is creating Europe’s first LGBTQ+ digital clinic 🌈. Their team helps people access healthcare without fear or stigma through online testing, consultations, prescriptions, and medicine delivery.

Every Health was founded by Dmytro Bilyarchyk and Oleksandr Petrov to make healthcare safer and more accessible for everyone. The round totaled €1.1M, and we’re proud to be among the investors supporting this mission.

🇺🇦 Український технологічний сектор за десять років сформував окрему індустрію, яку важко недооцінити. Велике дослідження AIN.UA та Molfar за підтримки BRDO показує, як з 2014 року з’явилася потужна хвиля інженерних та технологічних команд, що працюють у сегментах, пов’язаних з рішеннями для безпеки, автоматизації та швидкого реагування.

222 компанії почали розробляти технологічні продукти впродовж цього періоду. Найбільша хвиля зростання була у 2023 році, коли на ринок одночасно вийшли 73 нові команди. У поєднанні з інженерними школами, університетськими лабораторіями та новими форматами співпраці бізнесу й держави це створює середовище, яке рухається до зрілої технологічної екосистеми.

У звіті згадано і Mantis Analytics, компанію з нашого портфеля. Вони створюють AI-платформу для моніторингу та аналізу інформаційного поля в режимі реального часу. Це продукт у сфері data intelligence, який дає можливість швидше приймати рішення та працювати з великими масивами даних у складних середовищах.

Для ZAS Ventures важливо підтримувати команди, що працюють на перетині штучного інтелекту, аналітики й високих технологій та здатні масштабувати свої рішення глобально. Дослідження лише підкреслює, як швидко росте сегмент, у якому з’являються компанії нового покоління.

It's Friday and we continue to tell you about our recent deals.

CloudAvocado has raised pre-seed from ZAS Ventures. Cloud Avocado is a Healthy solution for every AWS client to save up to 70% of current running costs.

Saving "AWS costs" is not only about your savings but also about data centre savings on electricity, heating and CO2 emissions overall. We at ZAS Ventures are on a mission to help Andriy Pyshchyk, Calvin Martin, Oleksandr Tolochko and the team build great narratives and partnerships with businesses to learn about their data centre's CO2 impact.

If you are paying your own company's money for AWS (and not credits) — you should check them out.
