Jet Investment Invests $1.8 Million in U.S. Startup AppNava, Which Focuses on Predictive Analytics
(Brno, September 17, 2026) The Jet Investment Group has made its eleventh investment through the venture capital fund Jet Venture 1 SICAV, investing $1.8 million in AppNava Inc., a technology company that has developed an AI-powered SaaS platform for predictive analytics in mobile apps. The platform can predict a user’s value, churn, and monetization potential in real time, starting from the user’s very first interaction with the app. The investment round, totaling $2.3 million, saw the Arya Women fund participate as a co-investor alongside Jet Investment, which served as the lead investor. The platform enables studios to predict user behavior and respond to it within minutes, without the need for an in-house team of data scientists.
Founded in 2022, AppNava has grown into an international company serving studios developing mobile apps and games across Europe, Asia, and the U.S. Its hybrid machine-learning-based platform provides predictions at the individual-user level – lifetime value, churn, and monetization – with high accuracy; it integrates with leading analytics and advertising platforms within minutes and continuously retrains itself as user behavior changes. The company has demonstrated strong customer retention and healthy unit economics, along with 120% year-over-year growth in the number of customers. Its platform is validated by partnerships with leading advertising and analytics platforms, including Meta and Google, and the company is now expanding its use into the e-commerce sector.
New Investment Will Support Product Innovation and Expansion into the U.S.
The investment will support the platform’s further development – particularly real-time AI predictions – the building of the company’s sales organization to acquire large, high-value clients in the United States, expansion into new verticals such as e-commerce, and the deepening of its partner ecosystem.
“Changes in user privacy regulations have fundamentally transformed the market for user behavior predictions. Existing methods of precisely tracking individual users have ceased to work, and AppNava has come up with exactly what studios need today – a fully automated tool that can estimate user value in real time, without the need to build an in-house team of data scientists,” said Kamil Levinský, Managing Director of the Jet Venture 1 fund at Jet Investment.
“This investment will allow us to offer this capability to large clients in the U.S. and expand into new industries, such as e-commerce, while deepening our collaboration with partners like Meta and Google. Our partnership with Jet Venture provides us with the foundation to further develop this vision,” added Damla Dokuzoğlu, co-founder and CEO of AppNava.
The transaction aligns with Jet Investment’s strategy to expand its venture capital portfolio with innovative technology companies. The investment in AppNava follows previous investments in Digicust, Partory, International Automotive Group, Cequence, Boost.space, Headmade Materials, DecisionRules, Hermetiq, GigaScan and Phantasma Labs.
The equity investment in AppNava is the next step in Jet Investment’s venture capital activities, for which the group established a new fund, Jet Venture 1, in October 2024. Jet Investment aims to build the Jet Venture 1 fund’s portfolio through equity investments in innovative early-stage companies in the Czech Republic and other Central European countries, totaling up to 50 million EUR. The Czech Republic and the broader region are among AppNava’s key expansion markets alongside its primary focus on the U.S. The fund’s goal is to support the long-term modernization of the region’s economy, ranging from manufacturing to technology companies.
