About
We’re Amino Capital, an early-stage venture capital firm based in Palo Alto, California. We back founders from pre-seed through Series B.
Investment approach
- Thesis
- Go narrow, go deep, go with the flow. This motto distills what we have seen successful founders do time and again. They start with a single niche problem that they understand deeply, build a solution specifically for it, and then branch out to use cases upstream or downstream of where they began. They’re agile; they’ll adapt to technological advances, customer demand, and regulatory changes, even if that means they need to start over, in the name of building something lasting and meaningful.Source (opens in a new tab)
