Raise once. Grow with the same partner.
From seed rounds to growth equity to non-dilutive credit, we back founders at every stage of a company's life.
What we look for
Technical depth
Founders who understand their product better than anyone in the room.
Real customers
Evidence that someone depends on what you build, even if it is only a few.
Honest numbers
We care less about the size of your metrics than how well you understand them.
A long horizon
We prefer founders building companies to own, not to flip.

Questions founders ask us.
Do you lead rounds?
Usually. In venture we lead or co-lead more than 80% of our first investments.
Do you invest outside the US?
Yes. We invest across the US, UK and Europe from our three offices.
What if I need debt, not equity?
Our private credit team lends to profitable companies with $10M or more of EBITDA. Select "Seeking credit" in the form.
What happens if you pass?
We tell you why, in writing. Several companies we passed on have come back a year later and raised from us.
