What AI Startups Are VCs Actually Funding in 2026

Everyone's pitching "agentic," "AI-native," and "autonomous" — but what's actually getting term sheets? In this fast-paced 30-minute conversation, Mariane Bekker (Head of Developer Relations, You.com) sits down with top VCs to cut through the noise and get specific: which categories are seeing real capital move, what separates a fundable agent startup from a feature wrapped in a demo, how diligence has changed now that every deck claims to be "agentic," and where the smart money is placing bets for the next 12 months. Expect direct answers, real portfolio examples, and zero fluff — a session for founders who want to know what VCs are actually looking for, not what they say at conferences.
