We move quickly. Our investment process is designed to give founders a clear answer within two weeks of first meeting, respecting their time and momentum.
Through Battery Ventures and our own operator relationships, we provide access to enterprise customers, follow-on investors, and world-class talent networks.
Our partners have built and scaled software companies. We bring hands-on insight into product-market fit, go-to-market strategy, and team building.
We write clean, founder-friendly term sheets. We believe the best partnerships are built on trust and mutual respect, not adversarial clauses.
With $120M under management, we write meaningful seed checks — large enough to matter, without forcing premature scale before product-market fit.
Portfolio founders benefit from a curated peer community — sharing insights, introductions, and support across our network of B2B SaaS and consumer tech builders.
We meet founders at the earliest stages. If you are building a B2B SaaS or consumer tech company and are raising a seed round, we want to hear from you.
