Bradley invested in the €12M seed round of Cortea, announced in June 2026. Cortea builds AI agents that review audit work for audit firms. Dawn Capital led the round, with Cherry Ventures, Mosaic Ventures and other angels also taking part.

One public investment is not enough to define a stated thesis. His one known AI investment is a seed-stage company applying AI to audit, a regulated professional services setting, and it matches his career in audit. He has not published a check size, target stage, geography or investing criteria that we could find, so none are given here.
