About
Right Side Capital Management (RSCM) is a quantitative, data-driven Pre-VC / Pre-Seed investment firm founded in 2012 in San Francisco, investing in capital-efficient tech startups in the US and Canada. It typically writes $150K-$300K checks into $150K-$500K rounds at $1.5M-$4M valuations (with rare exceptions to $6M valuations and $1M rounds for exceptional traction), and has made 2,000+ investments across 8 funds with $250M+ AUM.
