# Investing in Interval: The Infrastructure Layer for a New Data Economy > Varys Capital is proud to announce our investment in Interval — Interval is creating the infrastructure layer for a new data economy, where enterprise data becomes a programmable, tradable asset rather than a static internal resource. **Published by:** [Varys Capital](https://paragraph.com/@varyscapital/) **Published on:** 2025-07-03 **Categories:** blockchain, venturecapital, crypto, varyscapital **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@varyscapital/interval ## Content Investing in OptimumAt Varys Capital, we focus on infrastructure that enables new economic primitives. As AI and data-driven systems become central to how businesses operate, one structural limitation remains: the lack of access to private company data. AI can only index and analyze what it has access to. Enterprise data is still fragmented, siloed, and largely unmonetized. Interval is creating a new foundation for how data is owned, shared, and monetized. Interval is building a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain that enables enterprises to securely monetize and license their private data, unlocking a new asset class at the intersection of AI, blockchain, and enterprise software.The Problem: Data is Valuable but LockedFor decades, enterprise data strategy has relied on control and isolation. Data is stored securely, access is tightly restricted, and movement across systems is limited. While this model worked for traditional systems, it breaks down in a world increasingly driven by AI models requiring large, high-quality datasets that need to build in cross-platform data collaboration and facilitate real-time decision-making across organizations. Today, some of the most valuable companies in the world are already built on proprietary data. Yet they have access only to a limited subset of companies available in the market because companies are reluctant to share their private data with a third party. Market intelligence firms like Gartner, IQVIA, and RELX collectively represent hundreds of billions in market value. Newer platforms like ZoomInfo have achieved massive valuations using even publicly available datasets Despite this, most enterprise data remains:Siloed within individual organizationsDifficult to share across counterpartiesImpossible to monetize without compromising privacyAs a result, businesses are sitting on highly valuable data assets that cannot be efficiently utilized or commercialized.The Solution: A Blockchain for Data MonetizationInterval is building a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain designed to enable the monetization and licensing of enterprise data. The platform allows organizations to securely ingest and encrypt private data while maintaining full control and provenance of datasets. Organizations can then monetize data through a structured marketplace. This enables them to seamlessly integrate their private market data and add public datasets for richer insights. At its core, Interval introduces a new model where data becomes a programmable, monetizable asset rather than a static internal resource. The platform consists of three key components:Interval Network – a purpose-built L1 that serves as the foundation for data validation and exchangeInterval Exchange – an embedded marketplace for trading tokenized data and structured data productsInterval Portal + Val – an AI-powered business intelligence layer that allows enterprises to interact with their dataThe system enables a full data lifecycle from ingestion and anonymization to monetization and insight generation, all within a secure framework.Unlocking a New Data EconomyInterval’s core insight is that enterprise data is not just an operational asset — it is a financial asset. By enabling secure, anonymized data exchange, the platform unlocks new revenue streams for enterprises. By having better data interoperability across industries, they can access improved intelligence through combined datasets. In some cases, individual enterprise datasets can generate low to mid-eight-figure revenue streams when monetized effectively. The platform is initially targeting industries where data is both highly valuable and structurally siloed, including:Real estateEnergyRetail and supply chainsTransportationFinancial servicesThese sectors depend heavily on proprietary data but lack efficient infrastructure for sharing and monetizing it.Clear Product Market Fit ImmediatelyDespite being early, Interval has already secured meaningful traction across multiple verticals. Key partnerships include:One of the largest South American/LATAM consumer brands with access to large-scale consumer distribution dataGroup Link One, which manages over 200 million connected IoT devicesADGM for AI and data services in Abu DhabiGS Holdings a major energy and real estate player in South KoreaHyundai covering vehicle and insurance dataFrom these engagements and others, Interval already has ARR in the eight figures, with a pipeline well into the nine figures.Why Varys Capital InvestedAt Varys Capital, we believe the next phase of digital infrastructure will be defined by how data is owned, shared, and monetized. The rise of AI has significantly increased the value of proprietary data. Companies are spending billions of dollars annually to acquire unique datasets that give them a competitive edge. At the same time, most enterprise data remains locked within organizational silos, unable to be efficiently shared or monetized. Interval addresses this gap by introducing a new framework for data ownership and exchange, where data provenance is verifiable, privacy is preserved through encryption and zero-knowledge systems, and monetization is built directly into the infrastructure layer. What makes Interval particularly compelling is its positioning at the intersection of AI (data demand), blockchain (trust and provenance), and enterprise software (distribution and revenue). If successful, Interval could become a foundational layer of a new data economy, enabling enterprises to treat data not just as an internal resource but as a tradable, revenue-generating asset. We’re excited to support the team as they build infrastructure that transforms how data is exchanged, monetized, and utilized across industries. Varys Capital invested in Interval's seed round.
