Capgemini (Aiman Ezzat, CEO) — Investir interview, "boss special": IA agentique as an operational breakthrough, not just another technology; €2bn invested, +30% on application development and −20% incidents, >11% of Q1 bookings, TAM of over $400bn/year by 2030 — but "very far from plug and play" (Investir / Les Echos)

Fact-checking synthesis on **Delos Intelligence** (delos.so), a French B2B generative AI startup, comparing a prior tech-watch note against **primary sources** (Alexandre Dewez's "Overlooked" post / 20VC, April 15, 2025, the delos.so website, official registries) and specialized press (Le Monde Informatique, L'Usine Nouvelle, FrenchWeb, Le JDD). **Overall verdict: reliable factual backbone.** The **€2.5M seed round** (≈$2.74–2.83M) led by **20VC** (Harry Stebbings) in **April 2025**, with Inovia Capital, Kima Ventures (Xavier Niel) and Plug and Play, is confirmed; so are the founders (brothers **Pierre** and **Thibaut de la Grand'rive**) and the clients **TotalEnergies, Shiseido, Groupe Casino**. **Strong methodological point**: the list of business angels — often suspected of hallucinatory "padding" — is **CONFIRMED word for word** by the lead investor's press release (Pigment, Dataiku, Hexa plus Ramp and Kerala to add): this is therefore NOT a hallucination. **To correct**: the "50 people" headcount is **not sourceable** (~20 in April 2025, about forty by late 2025); the actual pricing grid is richer (a **Student tier at €10** plus Enterprise on request, in addition to €25/45/80); user figures (10,000 → 50,000 → "100,000+") and ARR are **self-reported and unaudited**. **To flag as speculative**: **no Series A has closed** (only announced as an intention targeting March 2026); **no overall ARR published** (the only mention is a self-promotional "$1M ARR in a few days" for the new **Workers** product, referring to that product alone). "100% Scaleway" sovereignty was **still being finalized** at the end of 2025 (compute still partly running on Azure France). The note's interest is as much methodological — **how to distinguish, within an AI-generated synthesis, what is confirmed, partially accurate, speculative, and self-reported** — as it is documentary.
