Our Investment Process

From initial alignment to closing in 10 days

1

Alignment

Today

We are lead or co-lead investors in seed rounds. Our average investment is $3MM and our maximum investment is $10MM. We are agnostic to industry. We are focused on investing in ambitious founders whose unique experiences have led them to large opportunities.

Share Writing

Today

If you see potential alignment, please click "Share Writing" and send us your memo or deck. The writing should outline your vision to make something tremendously better, faster, and cheaper and why your team is the right one to do so. Include how much capital you are planning to raise and your desired terms.

Reading

2 Days From Now

We consider a founder's time to be precious and are very intentional when asking for it. As a result, we start by having each member of our investment team read your writing. We then discuss each opportunity as a group to decide if we will proceed to a meeting.

Meeting

3-4 Days From Now

If we see promise in the opportunity, we will fly to you and ask for a single, multi-hour meeting. We will show up prepared and dive into specific questions. We will also ask to meet other members of your team.

5

Decision

5-7 Days From Now

After meeting you, we spend the ensuing days on research and referencing. We then summarize our learnings in a single internal investment memo and reach a consensus decision to invest or not.

Close

10 Days From Now

If we make an offer to invest, we will close quickly so you can start executing on your vision. Our belief is that speed of execution matters more than ever before, especially as the AI technological wave unfolds.
