How we invest
We typically invest anywhere from pre-seed to Series A.
Often the first institutional investors in a company, we’ve invested in some when they were pre-product and others when they had bootstrapped to $2m in ARR.
In these rounds, we typically invest anywhere from $250k to $1.5m as our first cheque. We work with founders to help grow their business and double down in future rounds to increase our ownership in the best performers.
