About

Flybridge is an early-stage venture capital firm investing in AI-native companies, describing itself as 'The East Coast Firm' rooted in NYC and Boston. It invests from pre-seed (via its Next Wave program) through seed and occasional post-Series A follow-on rounds, focused on three themes: AI Infrastructure & Developer Platforms, Agentic Business Applications, and Native AI for Human Potential. The firm keeps funds around $100M with a small, GP-led investment team.

Investment approach

Thesis
We're intentional investors—keeping our funds around $100M with a small, mighty team that works exceptionally hard on behalf of our portfolio companies.Source (opens in a new tab)
Leads rounds
Yes
Lead policy
Led by our GPs and investment team members, we lead or co-lead rounds and are high-conviction but not unanimous decision-makers.
Reserves policy
Occasionally, we make late-stage investments into companies we bet on early - this allows us to support your growth and stay on the journey.
