  • 📈 We made 23 investments this quarter!

  • We ramped up our Venture Partner program and onboarded 19 new members!

  • OUR ASK: We are investing in the best technical founders at the earliest stages – we would love to meet any top 1% entrepreneurs starting companies in your network!

In today’s market, capital is cheap but speed is scarce. The best founders aren't optimizing for dilution. They're optimizing for momentum. Over the past quarter, we’ve seen a pattern: the most compelling early-stage teams are choosing partners who can make decisions in days, not weeks. Here’s a clip of the Cluely founder talking about prioritizing investors who move fast.

We’ve doubled down on high-velocity investing: 2+ deals per week, zero committee overhead, and 24-hour feedback loop on most opportunities. We strive to make decisions within 5 days of the initial meeting with the founder.

We’ve also ensured that we don’t get in the founder’s way. In today’s world, revenue timelines are compressed and we believe our mantra of “do no harm” will be adopted by other VCs worldwide. We do not take board seats, give our voting rights back to the founders, and don’t believe VCs should charge founders for legal fees.

We view founders as peers who we want to back and respect their time while giving them the room to execute their visions.
