An operator at the table,
from the earliest stage.

We invest early and stay close. Where we focus, what we bring, and what happens after you write.

Where we focus

Stage
Pre-seed and seed, often before there is a deck
Industries
Work that still runs on experienced judgement
Check
Angel-size, on our own judgement
Product
Only possible because of modern models
Pace
A handful of new companies a year
Horizon
Owned for a long time

What we bring

Operating experience

A product taken into a new market from zero, and the diligence rooms of a few dozen software companies since.

Time

Years with each company, not a quarter.

Capital, early

Angel-size first checks, with a plain yes or no.

The same discipline

The four tests we run our own ideas through, open to founders who want a stress test.

What to send

What you are building

A working product, however rough, is worth more than a deck.

Who has used it

Real people, in their words if you have them.

What you need next

Capital, a market, an operator, or a second opinion.

We read every note and reply within a week. If there is a fit, the next step is a conversation, not a process. If there is not, we say so.

Founders and partners.
One inbox.
