Based in Seattle and Los Angeles, Arkero develops an AI-native operating system designed to centralize operational data and automate workflows for professional sports businesses. The enterprise software-as-a-service platform integrates with existing data warehouses, communication tools, and ticketing systems to streamline processes like matchday planning and season-ticket renewals without requiring additional headcount. The company focuses primarily on soccer clubs across the MLS, NWSL, and EFL, serving initial clients including Seattle Sounders FC and Seattle Reign FC. Early deployments of the technology have demonstrated over a 50% efficiency improvement in matchday planning operations for these teams. The organization secured $6 million in pre-seed funding in early 2026 through a financing round led by Game Changers Ventures, alongside investors 776 and BoxGroup. Arkero was founded in the fall of 2025 by Shivaas Gulati, Vamsi Narla, and Daniel Shi.
