One of Africa’s most successful founders is back with a new AI startup and already raised $9M
- Karim Jouini and Jihed Othmani sold Expensya to Medius in a notable acquisition for over $120 million.
- The founders vowed to avoid future startups but were drawn back by the potential of generative AI.
- Thunder Code, their new venture, has raised $9 million in seed funding within six months.
The transition from expense management to software testing represents a strategic pivot that leverages the founders' past experiences while addressing a critical market need. Thunder Code's focus on speed and AI integration could disrupt traditional testing methods, making it a compelling case for investors and stakeholders in the tech industry.
