Emerging technology firm Vault PLC has acquired London-based System7, an AI automation and development platform for marketing and sales teams, in a seven-figure deal—just eight months after its launch.
The announcement came from cocreatd, a UK-based venture studio that incubated System7 as its first startup. Furthermore, according to cocreatd, this acquisition not only validates its startup support model but also highlights the potential of AI in driving rapid value creation.
Nicolas Baxter, co-founder of System7, commented, “Co-created gave us an incredible platform to start—funding, expertise, and a phenomenal community. I don’t think there’s a better time to build a startup. I’m thrilled about joining and leading Vault’s AI incubator and know we can build some amazing new tech companies together.”
Founded in 2025, the AI automation platform focuses on building next-generation companies powered by AI, enabling teams to leverage cutting-edge technology for smarter business operations. The platform specializes in workflow solutions for marketing and sales teams, simplifying complex processes through seamless automation.
System7 addresses a significant market gap: while companies seek AI-driven solutions, many face challenges in implementation. To solve this, the AI automation company has developed practical workflows, automation tools, and curated collections that deliver real-world results.
Meanwhile, Vault PLC commits to turning ideas into next-generation businesses by identifying opportunities where technological innovation meets market demand. Its focus spans blockchain, artificial intelligence, and augmented reality. Operating through Vault Ventures, the company follows a regulated approach and maintains a digital asset treasury function.
Vault’s AI incubator model further strengthens its mission to accelerate companies that combine advanced technology with growing market needs, paving the way for disruptive innovations.
Brian Stocksbridge, Chairman of Vault PLC, added: “We’re at an inflection point where AI and blockchain are converging. System7’s practical approach to AI, plus Nicolas joining our board, positions us perfectly for this intersection. We’re excited to support their growth as part of our mission to develop big ideas into next-generation companies.“
cocreatd co-founds day-zero startups by offering comprehensive support, funding, and community access. Since its launch in October 2024, as reported by EU-Startups, the venture studio has already co-founded eight companies and invested over €1.1 million in them. Moreover, its approach has been highly effective, taking the first incubation from concept to exit in under eight months.
Operating across creative services, AI-driven tech solutions, and next-generation media platforms, cocreatd strongly believes that “great ideas shouldn’t be built alone—they should be co-created (or cocreatd).”
Oliver Yonchev, co-founder of cocreatd, said, “We co-found day zero startups with brilliant people—they dream it, we help make it happen. Nicolas had a clear vision and the talent to execute it. This acquisition shows what happens when you give exceptional founders the right support. I couldn’t be more excited for Nicolas and to start the next chapter with Vault. Their mission and ambition align with ours, so it’s a perfect partner.“
